Chapter 204 - Kicked out (1/2)

Everyone in the room was sweating slightly as they saw Lenny's actions. They had never seen someone so daring in their life before. Right now, they were in front of the Guild leader of one of the biggest guilds in Kelberg and not only that but they were in his base.

Even Ray would have chosen to be more sly about his actions.

”Well?” Lenny asked.

Mark picked up the ring and started to examine it.

”It is indeed my ring, thank you for bringing it back to me, the ring was stolen from me the other day and I had yet to find it.”

Ark let out a sigh of relief while Ray had noticed Lenny's face had only gotten angrier.

”Lies, I have been alive for many years and I know when I have sniffed out a puppet of the Shadow plague.”

”And you believe this ring is proof enough?” Mark replied, ”Do you really think that the mayor and the other Guilds will turn against me just because you found my ring?”

”You were the only one who knew about where we were going, were you not?” Lenny asked.

”And what about Ark, why isn't he a suspect in all this?”

Ark suddenly felt a little betrayed hearing the guild leader suggest that he might be a traitor.

”Simple, he does not smell of the Shadow plague.”

Although everyone believed in Lenny's words, they hoped he had a better answer than this.

Mark started to laugh.

”If you ask me, Ark is your number one suspect, anyway I am sick and tired of you disrespecting me, guards escort them out of here. Oh and Ark, I can no longer have a suspected member of the Shadow plague in my Guild, You are hereby dismissed this instant.”

Ark suddenly couldn't move. It felt like his whole world had come crumbling down. The guild he had served for the longest time, the place he had called a family had just banished him over what, he didn't really understand.

To the others though, Mark's strange actions only proved that he was in line with the Shadow plague even more. When asked if the ring belonged to anyone, Ark without hesitation said it belonged to the Fallen angels, and his actions after proved that he truly cared for the guild.

Unless the man was a top-class actor it was hard for them to believe that Ark was behind everything.

The group was then escorted out of the guild and Ark's guild tag was taken away.

”Well, what do we do now?” Gary asked.

”Did you find out any more information on the Demon man?” Lilly asked.

”Actually, I do, I was keeping it to myself but it looks like we are a standstill at the moment.” Lenny then pulled out a little Journal of his and opened it up so the others could see. On the page was a little diagram of the Hammer that Ray had been looking for.
