Faced with Duke Mu Huo's revelation.
Zorn was as calm and composed as ever.
"Your Grace, Duke Mu Huo, why don't you just say everything you have on your mind?"
"It would be better for everyone if you just spoke plainly, wouldn't it?"
Duke Mu Huo demanded sharply.
"Just tell us, was that Fighting Master you?"
Taking a deep breath, Zorn spread his hands.
"It seems I can no longer hide the fact that I killed the Rat King, thereby resolving the rat infestation and averting a plague."
"That's right. I'm the one who killed the [Bloodline·Lower Ranks·Rat King Knight]!"
Now that things had been revealed to this extent, Zorn was quite direct and stopped hiding the truth.
The moment Zorn made his admission, a wave of hushed, heated discussion rippled through the old church.
Killing the terrifying Rat King was certainly an honor, but it was also a major liability.
Without sufficient strength to back it up, it could even be a catastrophe.
