In between the words, Aiden's right hand had already reached its destination.
An uncontrollable sound resounded from the mouth of the maid on his thigh.
Ackman nodded as if he hadn't heard it, then shifted his words and continued speaking.
"Master, I sense there might be another possibility!"
Aiden frowned slightly, "Speak!"
Ackman hesitated for two seconds before continuing, "Could it be that the Iron Blood Brotherhood Bandit Corps and the Storm Mercenary Corps... were annihilated by the lord behind the city walls?"
Upon hearing this,
Aiden's furrowed brows instantly rose, he looked at Ackman somewhat angrily.
"Akoman Chief Attendant, I'm beginning to regret considering you as the chief attendant."
Ackman hurriedly lowered his head.
Aiden spoke in a deep voice, "Though I don't know how that young man became the lord of that territory, nor what ability he has to construct a city wall..."
