Sole Wolf and the others were about to chase after them, but Zeke roared, “Spies of the North, hear my call!”
Once Zeke made that command, Sole Wolf and everyone else knew there was no need to give chase anymore. The
escapees' fates were as good as sealed.
Sawyer and his brothers weren't stopping, but Sole Wolf stopped them before they could take another step. “Why
are you stopping me?” Sawyer asked, sounding worried. “If we let them get a head start, some of them might slip
through our fingers. There are more than a hundred of them! It won't be easy to get them all.”
Sole Wolf answered, “Zeke already gave his orders. The spies will catch them for us.”
Sawyer gasped. “There are more spies here? But even if that's the case, we're still severely outnumbered. There's
no way we can get them all that easily with just a few of us. We should really be chasing after them now, sir. They
will get away at this rate.”
Sole Wolf shot back, “What made you think that there are only a few spies here?”
Sawyer looked at him in confusion. “What are you trying to say, sir? I'm afraid I don't understand.”
Sole Wolf gave him a cryptic smile. “You'll see in a minute.”
At the same time, countless spies reported for duty the moment Zeke ordered them to.

“Reporting for duty, sir!”
The voices came from every corner in the ministry. There were about a thousand guards there, give or take a few.
About a third of them stood out after Zeke ordered them to.
None of the spies knew each other, since they never had any means of communication. Nobody knew who was a
spy, and as a result, most of them were shocked about the sheer number of spies among them. A lot of them
thought they were the only spy around.
Nelson and Ethan had a longtime rivalry, and the whole ministry knew it. They would butt heads every time they
met and would try to kill each other if they were given half a chance.
However, now that they were revealed to be spies working under the same boss, the realization shocked them.
“Holy sh*t! You're working for the Great Marshal too, Nelson? Oh, my f*cking god! I can't believe this!”
“F*ck you, Ethan! What do you mean you can't believe it? Shut the hell up. If a nincompoop like you can work for
the Great Marshal, why can't I?”
“Piss off, old-timer. The Great Marshal himself summoned me back then and told me to work as a spy here. He
didn't call you.”
“Hold up. Aren't you forgetting something? We reported for duty at the same time back then. That means the Great
Marshal summoned both of us at the same time, and he made sure we didn't know about it.”
Huh. Seems like the Great Marshal is as cunning as ever.
Zeke made another order. “Spies, hear my order. Arrest the families of all the ministry staff. Do not let a single one
of them escape!”
“Yes, sir!”
Around three hundred spies moved out at the same time to capture the escapees, much to the latter despair. Not
even in their wildest nightmare could they imagine that three hundred spies had infiltrated their ranks without them
even finding out.
In other words, everything they did was done under the scrutiny of a spy somewhere they didn't know. Even so,
they didn't give up on escaping. They told their guards to protect them and buy more time so they could slip away
successfully.
However, all the spies had mastered Zeke's Merciless Dragon Sword. Once they used that, no ordinary guards could
stop them. It took them a while, but in the end, all the escapees were brought back to the great hall. Not a single
one managed to escape.

Zeke said, “Arise, my warriors. Thank you for your service.”
The spies replied loudly, “It is an honor to serve you, Great Marshal!”
By then, Sawyer and his brothers' jaws were hanging open dumbly. There are three hundred of them? Holy cow.
And here I thought we're the only spies around here! This is so unbelievable!
Zeke glanced at the escapees coldly. “Take them to the city gates and lop their heads off,” he commanded coldly.
Juliana pleaded for her life, “Please have mercy on us! Please! We'll tell you everything! We'll tell you everything we
know about t-those Netherworld guys. Please, we'll tell you everything. I don't want to die. We don't want to die.”
Zeke replied coldly, “Sorry, but your meager information is worthless to me. Men, heed my order and execute
them.”
“Yes, sir!” Sole Wolf quickly told the spies to take the criminals out of their sight. It was a severe punishment for
those people, but they also knew Zeke was doing it for another purpose, and that was to drag the man in the mask
back out into the open. He was the mastermind behind the ministry's conspiracy, after all.
The family members of the Ministry of Sacred were just small fries turned bait. As for who the bait was for, well, the
answer was obvious enough—the head of the ministry itself.
Sawyer and his brothers wanted to go ahead and execute the family members of the Ministry of Sacred with the
other spies.
