“What do you mean by there aren’t many wolves who are stronger than Slayer? How does that narrow down the culprits?” the arrogant elder who was still looking for reasons to talk down to Regulus asked a bit rudely.
Regulus crossed his legs and then looked at that elder straight in the eyes. And he corrected that elder, “Culprit. Not culprits. If you had gone down to the dungeon and looked around instead of coming to me and asking stupid questions, then you would have known that the assassination was carried out by a single person.”
“How can you be so sure that it was just a single person?” that elder asked another question just because he didn’t want to back down and look like he was giving in to the young lord. He wanted to look tough in front of all the others.
Regulus didn’t show it but he was starting to lose his patience as that old man wasn’t giving him a chance to speak and explain things in his own pace.
