The personal guards of the mayor's residence surrounded the room where Sean was.
It had been that way since Lisha and Aria's fight broke out, and Aria bit back.
Sean was under house arrest. He had no freedom and could not leave at will.
He was followed by the personal guards of the mayor's residence even when going to the bathroom.
However, it did not bother Sean.
He was prepared. Even if the worst happened, he had a way of leaving Crosac and safely returning to Dorodo with Zander and Shania, so Sean was not worried.
Sean was playing chess with Zander in the room.
Sean often played chess with Zander. However, considering recent events, it had been a long time since they had casually played chess for fun.
"You're getting better, Zander."
Sean said with a chuckle.
Zander's chess skills had indeed improved, and it was unknown if he had practiced in private.
Zander also said to Sean, "Commander, you're much better than before too."
"Haha."
Sean nodded.
Just then, there was suddenly a knock at the door.
'Is it that woman Aria again?'
Zander frowned, but he got up to open the door anyway.
Once he opened the door, Zander discovered it was not the mayor's second daughter Aria, but Mayor Claremento himself!
Zander was slightly shocked. Then he asked, "Sir, what are you doing here?"
Zander was greeting him, but it was also a reminder to Sean.
When Sean heard Zander's question, he knew it was Mayor Claremento who came to his room.
The average person would have been pleasantly surprised and greeted him by now with a compliment that would have strengthened his bond with Mayor Claremento.
However, Sean was still sitting at his desk. He did not get up and did not even glance at the door.
"I have nothing to do. So I came to have a look."
Claremento said with a chuckle.
"Sir, come in."
Zander let Claremento enter Sean's room and went to make Claremento tea.
Claremento walked up to the table and stood in front of Sean.
"Is this chess? I didn't know you were in the mood for this, Commander Lennon."
Claremento said.
It was also now that Sean finally glanced up at Claremento.
"You locked me here, and I can't get out. All I can do is play chess to kill the time."
Sean said with a straight face.
"How resentful."
Claremento laughed and sat down where Zander had sat earlier.
Sean did not care about being under house arrest. If he wanted to get out, the personal guards outside would not be able to stop him.
"Come on, let's play a game of chess."
