"I sincerely apologize for encountering such an incident upon your arrival in town."
The sheriff of Kalanfor, "Ingram," expressed his heartfelt apology to the two individuals in front of him.
The thief, Joey, who was being carried by him, had given up struggling and kept his head low, remaining silent after realizing he couldn't escape.
Compared to his appearance at the inn's entrance earlier, the sheriff still wore his uniform, but his neatly combed blonde hair had been drenched by the rain.
"I can compensate for any losses."
Without a hint of insincerity, Ingram's expression was serious and genuine, as if he'd even remove his uniform at a word.
To this, Alton merely shook his head, glancing at the silent thief Joey in the other's hands.
"It's alright, he didn't steal anything."
"Besides, I've already lost all my money at the Full Bag of Gold, so even if he had succeeded, it would have been an empty bag."
