Chương 553: Capturing The Shapeshifters

The next day, Drayce and Seren parted from each other after having their morning meals together. While Seren went off to the Vermillion Palace to visit the royal harem, Drayce departed for the Grand Palace, where aside from handling the matters related to the kingdom, he had other affairs he was strictly paying attention to. 

It was late in the afternoon when the King wrapped up work and dismissed his other aides, leaving only Drayce and Slayer inside the King's study. While they were waiting for someone to arrive, Drayce took that chance to mention to Slayer about the piece of intelligence mentioned by the young server in that tavern they visited on the outskirts of the capital with Arlan. 

"How dare they inquire about the Queen in such a manner?" Slayer looked visibly displeased to only hear this news now. "If you two had not provoked me to drink, I could have started investigating then and there. Perhaps by now, we could have caught this suspicious pair."
