Chapter 362: Chapter 49, Strategic Gamble

After returning to the European Continent, Stephen and Garibaldi went their separate ways. One set off to stir up independence, while the other sought a place to observe the situation.

Stephen and his companions didn't return to Hungary immediately. Their experience in exile taught them that they must be careful and cautious, as any negligence could be fatal.

Although over a decade had passed and everything had changed dramatically, no one could guarantee they wouldn't be recognized by an acquaintance.

If word got out, they would be done for. In Montenegro Duchy, Stephen and the others disembarked and posed as merchants to survey the market.

They then sent out a few young people who had never passed through Austria to enter the Hungarian Region and gather intelligence.
