Ken's head shrunk in, he was unable to handle so many intense gazes all at once.
He didn't expect that Kael would paint him in such a light and he didn't know how to feel about it.
Vixy was currently staring daggers at him, her bright eyes struggled to contain the raging darkness within. Her claws emerged without her notice, digging deep into the soil as a way to channel her anger.
Not just her, but the other fox merchants were also looking at Ken with mixed feelings. Of all the feelings they felt when looking at Kael, betrayal was at the top.
Ken recognized the look of betrayal in their eyes and he understood how they felt. The way Kael had worded his sentence had been so…strange. But he dared not try to correct Kael.
Unbeknownst to him, Vixy had created a telepathic channel among the other foxes, excluding Ken completely.
"I knew Ken was ambitious but I didn't know it was this bad…" One of the foxes muttered in the telepathic channel.
