Lumilia and Brando went straight to the Adventurers Guild. They didn't even wait for Bryan cause they know that he was not in danger.

Lumilia and Brando entered the Adventurers Guild. They saw the adventurers here were having a commotion.

The adventurers turned their heads and looked at the two.

"Speaking of the devil. You two there, do you know that you're leader was captured by the guards?" The adventurers said to them.

"What?!" Lumilia and Brando were shocked when they heard it. They couldn't believe it at all so they approached the adventurers.

"What happened?" Lumilia asked them.

The adventurers looked at each other. It seems that Lumilia and Brando didn't know about this news. One of the adventurers opened his mouth and said, "You see. The guards captured your leader. If I'm not wrong his name is Souta."

Lumilia and Brando confirmed it when they heard Souta's name. They asked why the guards captured Souta.

"Your leader became the suspect of the killings that happening here. They saw him looking at the body of the dead people. The guards are currently investigating him. I'm going to warn you... The people here are getting restless and wanted to know who is the culprit." The adventurers said to them with a serious expression.

"You mean..." Lumilia looked at the adventurers as she realized what they were trying to say.

"Just one word from the duke and he could pin all the blame to your leader. The people here would have no choice to believe it. Only a few people like us, adventurers, knew what's really happening in this land." The adventurers said to her.

"Can the duke really do that?" Lumilia asked them with an uncertain look on her face.

"The folks here are afraid because they haven't caught the culprit for a long time and every other day some people will die. If they haven't found the killer, it will cause a panic in this whole land. Also, the duke is showing suspicious action and if he wanted to clean his name he will forge evidence and pinned all of it to your leader." The adventurers said to Lumilia and Brando with a gloomy expression.

"I understand..." Lumilia nodded and thanked the adventurers for informing them.

"This dukedom is done. The kind and humble duke became suspicious and the guild master isn't showing himself." The adventurers said with a sigh. They didn't even know what to do anymore.

'This became a problem but...' Lumilia thought as she massaged her temple. She has a question in her mind and that's why would Souta let the guards capture him.

If she wasn't wrong about him, Souta would certainly not let himself be captured by the guards. Maybe she was wrong, Souta has a plan that she didn't know.

'What should I do?' Lumilia kept repeating this question to herself. She didn't know what she should do in this situation.

Brando looked at Lumilia and shook his head. He stretched out his hand and patted her shoulders.

"What is it? Do you have something in your mind?" Lumilia asked Brando when she felt his hand on her shoulder.

"You should not think deeply about it. We should accomplish the task in front of us. I'm sure that Souta is fine giving his current strength. I think he formed a plan after seeing what's inside the duke's mansion." Brandon said in a low voice that only he and Lumilia could hear.

Lumilia took a deep breath and sighed. Brando was right. She's thinking too much about this matter. Souta gave her the task to lead this party. She thought that she had to do this flawlessly but the opposite happened to them. A lot of unexpected things appeared that were outside of her plan.
