When Salvador heard that martial–trained Sandorian spies had been hiding within the gentlemen’s retreat, he was visibly shocked. His expression immediately grew serious.

Carissa refrained from mentioning Gerald’s frequent visits to the gentlemen’s retreat. The investigation had made it clear that Gerald’s visits were purely for leisure, and he deliberately concealed his identity.
