[Bonus chapter]Chapter 998. The Country’s Guardian

"Damn it!" Jack cursed. "Is there no other way? No way he is willing to follow us out!"

Duke Alfredo came to Jack's side. He was firing standard ranged attacks from his magic gloves to help Arlcard. "How about we told him about the recording stone?" He whispered to Jack. "Maybe he will chase after us out of this castle."

When Duke Alfredo visited Jack in his cell early this morning. He had let Jack out of the cell for a while so Jack could access his inventory. Jack took the recording stone out of his inventory and gave it to the duke.

Duke Alfredo had started recording using the stone ever since Jack entered this hall and talked with Mason and Sindral. He had continued recording even after Sindral's death and when Themos revealed himself and admitted his deeds. This would be the proof that Jack was innocent.

"Good thinking!" Jack praised. "Give me the stone."

Duke Alfredo handed the stone to him.
