Khal touched the corner of his lips, suppressing his smile from coming out. Ayen swallowed and averted his gaze. He was reminded of how puncheable Devion was when he was showing this side of his.
Devion looked so smug. He stretched his arms behind Ayen and looked arrogantly at the two guides.
"We are only confirming something. It's best if you reveal anything to us before we force you to."
The two guides bit their lips and looked at each other.
Devion glanced at Khal and Ayen. The two were somehow speechless at his pretentious behavior. Well, not that he was lying, but strictly speaking, they did not know anything yet.
Still, it was more than welcome. Khal's interrogation method was hard to apply against these guides.
"What do you intend to do about the anomaly there?"
It was something obvious, but starting from here could have an effect throughout this entire conversation.
