Woodrow's face immediately paled at the sight of Brandli's badge. He stumbled back a few steps, and a hint of horror appeared in his eyes.
The soldiers also stopped upon hearing that, and they looked at Brandli and his badge with awe and veneration in their eyes.
A 7th-tier magic caster could kill all of them with ease.
What was even more frightening for them was that the case had been elevated to become a 4th-tier incident. 4th-tier incidents were very serious cases in the Gray Temple, ones that even the city lord's castle couldn't intervene in.
As such, they no longer had the right to do anything aside from awaiting judgment.
All of the relatives of the deceased miners turned to look at Brandli with gratitude and elation in their eyes.
Mag also looked at Brandli with a smile on his face. He was glad that his efforts had not gone to waste.
