Getting Pitch from Charcoal Burners but the spokesman keeps attacking for no reason

As stated, I tried washing off I cleaned my bloodied sword I dressed in nobleman’s clothing, nothing will stop him from attacking me. Everytime I approach the camp a tip shows up about reputation despite me having never killed a civilian in the run. Is this a bug? If not how am I able to fix it?

Stealing will reduce your reputation, even if nobody has seen you
