Chapter 223: The Premeditation

These days, Theo spent his time in the Inner City's inn waiting anxiously for Border Town's reply.

The tall inner city wall divided the king's city into two different worlds. There was strict control on entering and exiting. Whether they were nobles or merchants, everyone had to be checked in a small room at the entrance, and if they had any sign of illness, such as fever, flushing or black spots, they would not be allowed to enter. If Theo left the Inner City area, he would have to return in the evening, or else, once the sun sets, the gate would be locked and he would spend the night outside.

However, these policies did not prevent the demonic plague from spreading. He heard rumors the previous day that there were nobles in the Inner City area who were infected. Had the church not finally release the first batch of holy medicine, the nobles would probably have gathered and left the king's city.
