They rested in their house for a few hours until someone from the principal's office arrived, reporting an announcement from the officials present for a meeting.
Nervousness rushed to Brian's body, but Jake had him calm, which gave him confidence. He smiled and gave him a nod before following the person who gave the report. Jake then left the house and went somewhere else while Brian was still doing business with the officials.
Brian arrived at the principal hall's wide meeting hall, and at the end of the hall was the seat of the mercenary group leader. On the sides, 4 seats each were for the officials, commissioners, family heads supporting White Lead, and also reputable warriors of White Lead.
He stood there in front of them all as if he was facing some kind of monster, as their auras were too overwhelming for him. Their different gazes gave some kind of vibe of judging, looking at the deepest parts of his soul.
