The next morning, Galier set off for Wushan Castle with the prisoners in tow.
Now that there were witnesses, Reisen's crimes would be irrefutable.
However, it was foreseeable that using Reisen to eradicate the Skull Society would still be very difficult.
Although Ridder had interrogated Philton over the past few days and learned that Reisen had contacted the Skull Society through Taini Viscount of the Purple Thunder Territory, it was unlikely that Philton's confession alone could implicate the Purple Thunder Territory.
First, the Purple Thunder Clan was of high standing. Taini Viscount himself was a powerful Knight, and his daughter had married Barrington, making his grandson the heir to the Hyde Clan.
Second, a verbal accusation was not very convincing. Without other evidence, Taini Viscount could simply claim it was slander from Philton and deny everything.
This would hold true unless Reisen could provide evidence that Taini Viscount absolutely could not deny.
