Kapitel 179: Resources, Reaching the Limit

"Are the servants in your palace trustworthy?" Arkhen asked with a grin.

"They… should be. The servants come and go, but every time we accept new servants, they are thoroughly screened before we let them in the mansion," Meya said. "Moreover, all servants are very weak. At best, at the peak of the 1st class."

"Well, the culprit who informed our location and appearance to the enemy is a maid in the palace. She saw us changing our appearance and informed our enemy, who sneakily tailed us before setting up the ambush," Arkhen said.

"If they saw us going in this direction, then the enemy wouldn't even need to tail us for long," Meya wryly smiled. "The only thing here is the southern region and the only reason people come here is to hunt the dire beast and collect resources."

Arkhen and the shadow guards nodded. Moreover, this was the usual path of returning to the capital, so it was easy to set up an ambush here after knowing that Arkhen and others went to the southern snowy region.
