…
As for Will, because of his exceptional performance on the battlefield, and considering their shared fate, the Hertali family decided to give him a lenient punishment.
Because they were worried that Wan Ge and Ke Si would be upset, the punishment was not implemented immediately after it was decided, but their opinions were sought instead.
Wan Ge recalled that she was the one who had asked them to bring Will along.
After all, the opponent is still the protagonist before the halo completely disappears, and the protagonist's presence will increase the chances of winning, so he let them bring Will along.
Will did perform well in this battle, but... Wan Ge was more concerned about her lover's reaction.
So they turned their attention to Koss and only agreed to his proposal after receiving his permission.
Will was punished, but he remained at the Getafe's house.

At least he would know what to be careful about when interacting with people like them in the future.
