Meanwhile, Michael had absolutely no idea what the nobles inside the capital were currently discussing about him.
And even if he somehow learned they were discussing him right now, he still would not have cared much.
To Michael, things were actually very simple.
The people he wanted would eventually be found.
If they chose to run away from him, then that only proved they themselves understood they were guilty.
And if someone attempted to protect or stop them from being punished, then that only proved those people were partners of the guilty as well.
Michael did not consider himself some bloodthirsty madman.
At least, he genuinely did not think so.
These people were not innocent.
If he backed down now simply because he feared some unknown consequences, more people would suffer.
Even if those people could never personally threaten him, they could still continue ruining countless other lives beneath them just like they always had.
