Wins and Losses (3)
Looking at the entranced crowd calmly with Tristan in his hand, Basil retracted the swords he had sent at the Demons using [Master of Weapons]. He had almost exhausted his barely recovered Qi thanks to that very stunt.
He, of course, did that knowing what consequence he would face. The reason why he still did that was because keeping a strong front was necessary to keep his sneaky enemy away.
Looking down at Tristan, who barely resembled a human due to his crushed face, Basil recalled what Ione and Iliana had done to him. They had altered his memory with a Pacifer Art, which would support their testimony in the future.
They were going to hand over Tristan to the Supreme Court, which was secretly controlled by the Church, and mess with the Church by giving them false informations. With this, the Church wouldn't find out about Basil's true identity anytime soon.
