Chapter 71: Gathering Forces

The old Tempest Priest stood between the town chief and Byrne, the elderly man knew deep down that something was wrong when Lady Isaac did not appear after so long.

If she refused the church's search, it implied that all evidence provided by the Fischer family was authentic, and the Isaac family was indeed a subordinate of the Sea God Cult.

The fate of heretics was never good, and they often did not want to surrender without a fight.

Thus, a battle was almost inevitable!

Byrne stood to one side and analyzed, "The Isaac family's guards are probably around thirty or so, but basically, they don't have the guts to fight us hard for Lady Isaac, and in the end, there are likely only a handful who would die loyally for her."
