Gideon was well aware of the situation at hand. Having already disregarded commands and arrived late in Aurous Hill, he couldn't risk disobeying again unless he had a persuasive justification. If he complied, it meant he would head straight to Willow Estates and eliminate the slumbering Evans Family along with their protectors. Such a monumental action would undoubtedly send shockwaves throughout the world.
Aurous Hill, being the epicenter of the incident, would inevitably plunge into an unprecedented state of martial law. But then, how could he uncover clues about Zachary and his gang?
To buy himself more time, the best course of action was to proactively discuss the enchanted artifact. After all, the artifact held great value not only for himself but also for the Lord.
Gideon desired to retain the piece of lightning-struck wood, capable of summoning thunder from the heavens. He also planned to reveal the ring, hoping it would grant him a few extra days of respite from the Lord's wrath.
When Gideon mentioned the term ‘enchanted artifact,’ the Lord paused for a brief moment, then inquired coldly, "You acquired an enchanted artifact? What kind of artifact?"
