Chapter 1704

Verus' reaction stunned everyone, including Anton and Shannon herself. But Shannon quickly recovered. Her expression was calm, and her voice was low and serious as she said, "Well, go ahead and confess everything then." Since he was so eager to turn himself in, she might as well save herself and Benjamin the trouble of an interrogation. Verus' gaze darted between Shannon and Benjamin as if trying to determine why they'd come looking for him. But Shannon had an official identification card from the Demon Control Agency, and he'd heard she was also affiliated with the Special Security Agency. Either way, he couldn't afford to offend any of those organizations. After hesitating briefly, he cautiously said, "I-I didn't follow the Demon Control Agency's guidelines in integrating into human society and formed an excessively close relationship with a human." As he spoke, he instinctively tugged on Anton's sleeve. Shannon hadn't expected that to be the first thing he decided to confess.
