Bab 639: The Turn of Events at the Banquet

After listening to what the System said, Benjamin made a weird expression.

He could not understand what was going on. It was quite shocking to have other people sneaking into the banquet, but... Sneaking in a bunch of commoners, what was the point of it?

"Are those mercenaries?" Benjamin asked again.

The System said instead: "Some of them are mercenaries, while the others...are the most common commoners, no great spiritual energy like the mages, no physically strong body from professional training, certainly seemed like they pose no threat at all."

Benjamin felt even certain that something was off.

"How many of those fake mages are there?"

"Around a hundred of them, which is not a lot if compared with the whole proportion of mages here. Other mages seem rather normal, people from the Mage Guild."

Among the total amount of few thousand people, a hundred of them certainly did not mean anything. But if they were all spies for the commoners, a hundred spies would seem a lot.
