Chapter 109

Matthew reached for the abandoned gun and fired two shots at Vincent's legs.

Vincent awoke in agony, reaching for his wounded legs. His face twisted with pain as he pleaded, "Please, don't shoot! I'll give you the Tiger Seal."

Matthew's tone was frigid as he demanded, "Where is the Tiger Seal? I'll take it myself."

Vincent pointed to a table in the corner of the room and stammered, "It's... it's under that statue."

A cherub statue stood atop a table that sat against the wall.

When he lifted the statue, he discovered a piece of paper and a bronze ring underneath.

The bronze ring turned out to be the Tiger Seal. Matthew examined it briefly before tucking it into his pocket.

Spotting the paper underneath, he reached out to grab it.

Vincent hastily shouted, "You've taken the Tiger Seal, so put the paper down. It's just a useless list with some names on it."

Matthew glanced at Vincent before slowly unfolding the paper, revealing lines of Acranese text.

As he glanced at the text, he noticed a list of names below. Thinking it was nothing important, he set it down on the table.
