The moment George spoke, the players who had been crying out in despair suddenly froze.
They all knew his name — George, the player the Azure League had put a bounty on across the entire North.
Most of them also knew that today's whole disaster had started because of him.
But what shocked them was that George chose to stay — even when almost every high-level player had already run away!
Lying on the ground, Origi stared at him in disbelief. "George, why? Your account is too valuable to lose!"
He wasn't wrong. George's strength and potential combined made him one of the top players in the entire game.
To throw it all away here seemed far too reckless.
George looked at him seriously, then smiled. "Forgot to tell you my class — I'm a Peacekeeper."
He had never forgotten his duty. Being a Peacekeeper was what had first allowed him to rise up — and now, he would honor what that title stood for.
When the players heard those words, shame flickered across many of their faces.
