Later that morning, at the Stark Residence…
Ethan slowly lowered his Arcphone, with an expression of disbelief and shock.
The reaction around him wasn't much different, because some of them gathered in the living room overheard the entire conversation through their enhanced hearing.
Particularly Percival and Aliyah, who had both arrived at the residence not long after they left the guild.
"What the fuck?!" Percival exploded.
It hadn't even been five minutes since Ethan had finished explaining why the guild needed to be closed for the day.
He had recounted everything surrounding Beatrice and the Blessed who had banded together against them.
And now, they had suddenly learned that Maya had been killed by that very same Beatrice.
Aliyah, on the other hand, immediately went into a panic.
She had heard enough of Wilson's side of the conversation to understand that Beatrice wasn't simply targeting random people.
