Chapter 318
I'm not sure if the Bolivian Council understood what had happened. They obviously felt the absence of the Rectors—but it was a certainty that Ignacio got it.
"Please don't, Ignacio," I said softly. "Please."
What stopped Ignacio from killing first and asking questions later was most likely the knowledge that he could only focus on killing one of us at a time, and that would have left him open to attack from the rest of us. He seemed to know we knew this, and we still hadn't killed him, which we could have done the same way we had taken out the Rectors.
"You killed the Rectors?" Ignacio's eyes weren't red. He was angry, but he was under control.
"Indirectly," I replied. "But yes."
Tony helped me to my feet and undid my cuffs.
"What the hell is going on here!" a male Elder asked.
Ignacio raised his hand without taking his focus from us. The Council behind him quieted.
