�Yes sir. However, we ask that you let us know of the location in advance and have one of us with you at all times.�

�Hmm, is that so? Whatever. We�ll do as you have asked.�

The administrator let out a sigh of relief after seeing Alberu not getting upset. Alberu divided up the investigation squad and gave some orders.

�These five people including myself will investigate the central building.�

The central building. The eastern Annex. The western administrative offices. Alberu distributed the team and pointed to the last building as he looked toward Cale.

�Young master Cale Henituse, you and inspector Ben will investigate the rear garden and the tower with the spire behind it.

Cale and Ben made eye contact.

Ben was one of Alberu�s secretaries who had been named as an inspector based on his investigation abilities. He was, naturally, a disguised Dark Elf.

Cale started to speak.

�I do not need any other guards as I have three of my knights with me, your highness.�

Alberu nodded his head as if that was not an issue.

�Do as you like. You, Ben, and an administrator from the Empire. Three knights should be fine for the three of you.�

Alberu gave the order for all of them to start moving.

Cale put Ben in front of him and slowly headed to the garden.

�There is nothing in the garden.�

The fake Holy Maiden, Hannah, had said that there was nothing of value in the garden.

Cale could see the Empire�s administrator smiling awkwardly as soon as they entered the garden.

��Mm, it is pretty ugly isn�t it?�

The administrator could see the flowers that were trampled. There were also blood stains, making it look more like a battlefield rather than a garden. The administrator could not help but smile awkwardly to show them such a terrible sight.

�Not at all.�

Cale started to speak to the administrator.

�It just makes me sad to think about that terrible moment.�

�Ah.�

The administrator recalled that this young master in front of him was the one who put himself in harm�s way in order to defend his kingdom. He leaned his ear toward the just noble�s words. JrNovels.com
