What is with this town

The nobles finally backed off after hearing what Valdel said. They had determined that facing him directly would yield nothing. After acknowledging that the ring was real, the group of nobles apologized. The Principal didn't take to kindly to their insincere apologies and scoffed at them. Valdel didn't say anything since he knew that this wasn't the end. These kinds of people will not give up.

As the nobles gathered slowly dispersed, some of the people suddenly heard someone screaming.

"It's all because of you!" Out of nowhere someone appeared with a sword at hand. He had bloodshot eyes, and he glared at Valdel running full speed towards him. This person was none other than, Alastair, Sepchel's younger brother. Even though he was in a frenzied state Alastair was still an advanced level swordsman, not only that, even though he was rotten he was still considered a prodigy with the sword. So that attack he was about to make on Valdel was fatal.
