Chapter 72 We'll Hand It Over

The intense gazes of the men and women in the room made Skullius hold back his intent to eat.

What the flesh was this?!

The determination hidden in these gazes of these people was too much to be ignored and thus Skullius decided to ask what exactly was going on before doing anything rash.
