Chapter 470 Temporary Freedom
“All members of both squarls are to wear tracking restraints on their ankles.
“This case is hereby suspended pending further investigation!”
The members of Soulreaver were stunned.
That’s… all?!
“Your Honor!” William shouted.
Hudson looked at him.
“You have an objection?”
William’s eyes were red. “He killed someone!”
Hudson looked at him and said, “And what about your side? Are you claiming there is nothing suspicious at all? Much of your team’s testimony lacks evidence.”
“But he killed someone!”
Hudson let out a cold snort. “I stand by every statement I make and every ruling I issue. If there is truly anything improper about it, I will accept any punishment without complaint!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Hudson turned around and walked away.
And just like that, the hearing came to an end.
Steven and the others felt as though they were dreaming.
None of them had expected Hudson to sidestep such a massive issue from that angle.
Although no final verdict had been reached, at least they had regained their freedom for now.
The ankle restraint was only used for tracking. It would not restrict them too much.

Even if the case remained under suspicion, the fact that the Inspectorate had not continued detaining the captain already counted as a form of favoritism.
Even so, the logic behind it somehow sounded reasonable.
Alan remained calm from beginning to end.
Bianca held Steven’s hand and exchanged a glance with him, finally seeming to relax a little.
Soon, both squads were escorted away for lie-detection testing and fitted with tracking restraints.
By the time they walked out of the Inspectorate, everyone still felt dazed.
They could hardly believe the matter had simply been put on hold like that.

As they stepped outside, the two squads locked eyes
Steven spotted Beckett among the crowd. That guy definitely had something wrong with him!
William stepped forward and blocked Alan’s path.
With a cold expression, he said. “This isn’t finished. No matter how much influence you have, you’re going to answer for this.”
Alan looked at him indifferently. “Finished talking? If so, we’re leaving”,
William turned toward Nicole.
“I’m giving you one final chance. Go apologize to him.”
Nicole’s expression was equally cold. “That bastard deserves an apology from me?”
William instantly flew into a rage. “You seriously have a death wish!?”
The atmosphere immediately became tense.
Members from both squads prepared themselves for a fight.
Nicole said coldly, “Whatever debt I owed the family has already been repaid! I told you long ago, I have absolutely nothing to do with them anymore!
“We are not family!”
William laughed angrily. “Good! You ungrateful wretch! Then let’s consider the last twenty years completely wasted! The next time we meet on a battlefield, I’ll kill you myself!”
At that moment, a terrifying pressure erupted from Steven.
“Then I’ll crush every one of you right now!”
A second later, every member of Team Ashen unleashed a powerful aura.
It looked as though another fight was about to break out.
The members of Soulreaver stared at Steven as if they had seen a ghost. Even now, they could not understand how a Three-Sigil Divine Adept had suppressed a Five-Sigil Divine General.
It was unbelievably bizarre.
William gave Steven a long look, snorted coldly, and said nothing more.
Then he turned around and left with his team.
A trace of indescribable sadness flickered through Nicole’s eyes.
Alan calmly said, “Let’s go. The Kingstons will arrive soon!”

Everyour’s expression tightened. They immediately climbed into the armored vehicle and sped away.
Jennifer naturally received the news.
She knew very well that Eric had to be the one protecting Alan from behind the scenes.
Her fury instantly exploded.
She immediately returned to the Kingstons.
She was determined to use the Kingstons’ power to eliminate Alan.
The storm was far from over.
But Hudson had already obtained what he wanted.
Ernie would soon step down as director of the Chamber of Monitors and push Hudson into that position.
The significance of the Chamber of Monitors needed no explanation.
But none of that was something Steven and the others could deal with right now.
They drove straight to the location Alan had prepared in advance.
As a major metropolitan city, Orroux had a population exceeding five million. It was nothing like a small city such as Rowenville.
Its territory stretched across a vast area.
Still, in terms of population distribution, it was not much different.
The outer districts remained civilian territory, while the central districts housed the wealthy elite.
They arrived at a residence in the southeastern part of Orroux Alan had arranged it long ago as their headquarters. For the foreseeable future, everyone would stay hère.
The moment they reached the entrance, they found Peter and the others already waiting outside to welcome them.
Every one of them looked emotional. Thankfully, everyone had returned safely and unharmed.
“Captain!”
“Captain!”
Everyone greeted them enthusiastically.
Alan nodded. “Let’s head inside first.”
Peter smacked Steven on the shoulder as they entered.

“Kid, taking down a Divine General with one punch? Daran, that’s ridiculous.
Steven grinned. “Eh, it wasn’t that big
