Before this incident happened, Noah rarely spoke.

He was always the type to keep his emotions in check, and no one ever knew exactly what he was up to or what he was thinking, not even Kenneth.

So, Kenneth didn't often ask about Noah's private matters.

"Yes, the West family was trying to establish influence in Yoskela at the time, and you were busy helping your family with that," Kenneth explained.

Noah thought back carefully, but his mind was blank. He couldn't remember anything.
