Luis easily guessed that this was related to the fight.
Perhaps Zane himself was in trouble because he had paid the imperial students to attack him.
He was underage, but imperial law was not like the law of Velos in the past. Even minors could be punished if they had committed a fatal mistake.
And it seed that Isadonna wanted to take care of this with him.
However, if it’s handled with him so that Zane is cleared of wrongdoing, Luis is worried that Isadonna wants him to take responsibility.
Luis furrowed his brows in doubt.
After thinking for a mont, he nodded to the big n.
"Alright, I’ll et her," he said.
He knew it would be troubleso if he chose to leave. They would definitely chase after him.
However, if he had to fight, he wasn’t afraid of them.
They signaled for him to follow them.
After crossing the street, they arrived in front of the restaurant.
Luis looked at Zane, who continued to stare at him coldly as he waited at the entrance.
Since he was just a kid, Luis responded with a smile.
Of course, it was a mocking smile to Zane.
He clenched his fists but could only stay silent.
Inside the restaurant, Luis didn’t see Isadonna.
The three large n, who looked like giants, guided him up the stairs to the second floor.
It was a large staircase, and their steps as they climbed it actually made the stairs shake slightly.
Standing over two ters tall with muscular bodies, who knew how much they weighed.
People looked afraid as they passed by.
However, Zane didn’t follow. He remained standing at the entrance of the restaurant.
Perhaps Isadonna had asked him to wait outside from the beginning.
On the second floor, Luis saw several VIP dining rooms, and it seed like Isadonna was at the end.
One of the large n opened the door and gestured inside, inviting him to enter.
Upon entering, Luis imdiately spotted Isadonna, with her long blonde hair, sitting at a dining table already filled with luxurious food that looked small in size, and the woman didn’t seem to be eating any of it.
Her outfit was the sa as yesterday, wearing a long coat over her clothes.
However, Luis noticed she was applying lipstick on her lips while looking into a small makeup mirror.
Her pink lips turned slightly darker red from the lipstick, adding a cold aura to her appearance.
Of course, she looked even more beautiful than she already was.
This wasn’t sothing to dwell on, as almost no woman went without lipstick.
When he entered the dining room, the woman imdiately looked at him while the door was closed from the outside.
They had t before, and Luis knew she couldn’t have forgotten him.
Moreover, she must have conducted a thorough investigation into him.
However, there was no special reaction on her face.
"Sit down!" She pointed to the chair in front of her.
Luis sat down imdiately as he was invited.
With his increased strength, his anxiety about eting soone like Isadonna had also diminished.
According to his estimation, this woman was also still only at Level C.
They were the sa age after all, but her combat strength was definitely not sothing to be underestimated.
"Is there sothing, Miss Isadonna?" Luis asked, his eyes fixed on hers.
There were many practical reasons for them to be enemies, but for him, looking at her was still enjoyable because she was truly beautiful.
The woman didn’t respond imdiately but stared at him first.
"You must have beco Zarion’s lackey, or else so many imperial officials wouldn’t be defending you," she said.
Luis swallowed hard upon hearing that.
"I’m not sure what you an, Miss Isadonna," he replied.
Perhaps it was because only Zarion could influence so many officials that Isadonna had co to that conclusion.
However, Luis couldn’t admit that.
He didn’t know if Isadonna was aware that Zarion had established an organization to oppose the empire.
Perhaps the empire and its supporters had begun to detect it.
If it beca clear that he was part of the organization, the empire would only beco more hostile toward him.
Even if they knew, he couldn’t admit it.
"I don’t want to talk nonsense. I want you to take responsibility for the fight, and you can ask for anything," the woman said.
Her request aligned with Luis’s expectations.
"Does that an I’ll be imprisoned?" he asked.
Of course, he wouldn’t agree, but he wanted to know the details.
"Only six months. After that, you’ll be free. I’ll guarantee it and provide you with a top-notch lawyer as your counsel," Isadonna replied.
"Six months?" Luis’s face twitched involuntarily.
He had only been an Awakener for a few days and was now facing six months in prison. Though short, it would delay his progress significantly.
Who knew what he could achieve in six months?
"You said I could ask for anything?" Luis asked again.
He had lost his fear and wanted to fight back with words.
Isadonna furrowed her brows when asked about it, as if her instincts were telling her that Luis was playing gas with her.
"Yes, as long as it’s not sothing unreasonable," she replied.
She wanted to know what he wanted to ask for, so she agreed but also reminded him that it had to be sothing reasonable.
"That’s too bad." Luis sighed. "I actually don’t want to ask for money or anything; I just want you to stay with while I’m in prison."
When he said that, he smiled slightly.
And Isadonna’s face froze instantly.
For any woman, it’s hard not to be shocked by such insulting words.
"Hmm!" The woman then snorted softly.
She strangely didn’t look angry.
"Of course, I know that you’re a wild aboriginal or Zane wouldn’t have paid soone to capture you," she said.
Luis wasn’t offended by her words. He acted as if nothing was wrong.
"If you are unwilling to comply with my request, Miss Isadonna, then I can only let the law take its course. Besides, considering your family’s resources, I don’t think it would be difficult for you to free your cousin from this predicant," he said.
"Can I leave now?" He then stood up.
