The air stood still, time dragged, all I did was watch Marcus as he tried to spit out why several guys wanted his life.
"Who do u say your family has connections with?" I demanded once again, expecting results.
"... the divine... g-goddess of werefox and the royal family of nine tail foxes..." He said in a calm voice.
For some reason unknown, I wasn't surprised, it was like I was expecting it all along.
"U don't seem to be shocked" he looked at me, expecting that I would be surprised.
"I understand that u have a connection with them but that isn't a good reason why they want your head" that was my point of view and it's an obvious one.
"They are not after my head, they want to take me captive. U see... My family is like a gatekeeper, we possess keys to dungeons filled with terrible monsters and creatures."
I began to understand what was happening. He was making a point.
