Life After Prison by Silencieux novel Chapter 1246

Diane frowned at what happened and asked Sheila, "How did the Nine Draco Province's governor find out about this? You didn't mention anything about it yesterday."

Sheila smiled wryly and said, "There were so many things happening yesterday that I nearly lost my voice after talking so much. Please don't blame me for skipping over some of the details, especially since this happened just before we returned."

Diane was at a loss as to how to react to that. She said, "Well, you explained everything so vividly yesterday that even Severin's parents were listening. We want to hear the story too! Do you think you can tell us what happened with the Province Governor?"

"There wasn't much, to be honest," Sheila said. "The Nightsky's gang leader was killed, so his daughter prostituted herself in exchange for the mayor's help. However, Severin killed him along with several other elders." Following a brief pause, she then continued, "The Nine Draco Province's governor resides in Nine Dragon City too, and he was the one that appointed the mayor. The two of them always had a good relationship, so Severin's act of killing the mayor can be taken as an act of contempt to the Province Governor."

Diane understood the stakes and nodded along, "I see. So you're saying that the Nine Draco Province's governor sent some people over to cause trouble?"

Sheila laughed and said, "They wouldn't dare to do that at all. They're under the impression that they won't be able to handle someone who can kill so many of the mayor's strongest men. Then again, they must have been pretty unhappy after all that disrespect. Must be why they tried to put on a show of intimidation to try and demand justice."

Then, Sheila explained further, "Of course, we all know that Severin is a reasonable person who is easy to talk to. Since he's dealing with a Province Governor, he was courteous enough to give the man an out. Severin explained the situation to him and even handed him a third-grade low-rank pill to prove himself."
