If Velen had truly attacked the Triad Sanctum just for this matter, wouldn't that be an unimaginable injustice?
And if Velen had falsely accused them just as an excuse to act, wouldn't that be an even greater injustice?!
Sergei's heart bled at the thought.
But what could he do?
Velen was simply too powerful.
In this world where the strong devoured the weak, he could only swallow his grievances and accept reality.
With trembling hands, he quickly retrieved an ancient chessboard from his robes and handed it over to Velen, his voice quivering.
"Big brother… is this what you were looking for? This is the Wàn Guó Chessboard, the sacred treasure of the Tarot Order, which I borrowed!"
Ethan, seeing this, suddenly felt a bit awkward.
He quickly transmitted a message to Velen:
"Velen, I think we may have… wrongly accused him."
"This item is a sacred relic of the Tarot Order. When it was borrowed all those years ago, it caused quite a stir."
