"Sir."
The short, fat man with a creased face chose his words carefully.
"Earlier, while we were exploring Weston Forest, we discovered this woman and her teammates had acquired a treasure. So I used a skill to seal her space ring, and then..."
And then we chased them down—for high-level items and skills, pursuing and fighting over them is really nothing major in the treasure land. Treasures, of course, belong to those capable of holding them. Just like when Wen Yu arrived, the short, fat man obediently handed over the treasure with both hands.
This kind of explanation fits well with the course of events, combined with the well-known character of Lord Sequence Number 2—could he really step out to uphold justice for this group of women? Stop kidding around, we're all adults here...
"You're full of crap! You clearly had a specific target and attacked us out of the blue."
"Yeah, I did ambush you. It's all for the treasure; it makes perfect sense, doesn't it?"
