In the unnamed town, Angora felt a headache coming on.

From the information brought back by Edward and seeing his own brother killed in front of him—even if he didn't have a good relationship with his second brother, he could not help but feel sad by this turn of events.

Thinking back to how the bandits he met on the way here were also the work of the Society of the Secret Eye, he naturally saw them as his greatest enemy at this point. 

As the saying goes, the enemy of your enemy is your friend.

At this point, it seemed like pursuing connections with the Frogmen tribe that were causing trouble for Black Whip would be worth the effort. If needed, they could even offer help and resources for them. Angora didn't expect any material from those amphibians, but it was worth it as long as they could attract the attention of the Society of the Secret Eye to give the town some time to grow stronger.
