"Err... Um... Uhh..."When Keith heard the question posed by the chief officer, he stammered horribly. Keith's level of shock and confusion was beyond words. He was clearly taken aback."Actually... Officer, I'm still a Bronze-rank Awakened." With eyes that looked like a chasm, Keith mustered the courage to speak. As the chief officer stared at him, he noticed the sense of astonishment and nervousness in Keith's eyes. Even if a six-year-old boy caught a glimpse of Keith's countenance at this moment, he would clearly notice the unease lurking around him.Although Keith knew that the two guards would have suspected him after his fierce attack against them, he just didn't expect that they would spread the news to someone else.Keith just didn't think much about these things because of his father's issue, and now that the Head Lord was dead, it could be an investigative factor.'Shit!
