King of the inner section

There was no one in the direction where the attack had come from; however, everyone could guess what was the one that stopped the attack and saved Geron.

"Your majesty,"

As soon as they realized who it was, all three old men bowed down in the direction of the old cave and greeted the being inside the cave.

"What's with all the commotion in front of my abode?"

An extremely annoyed and loud voice came from the old cave that made all three spirit beasts kings in the human form shivered at those words.

"Sorry for disturbing your sleep, your majesty," 

Among the three spirit beast kings, the old man with bald head was very anxious and hurriedly explained, "Your majesty, this traitor has killed your three guardians for some unknown reason. So, we are punishing him."

Even though it was just an excuse for the bald human formed spirit beast king, he acted like he was killing a traitor and doing a good thing for their inner section.
