Cale thought about Imperial Prince Adin and commented.

�Trash really is trash.�

Billos flinched at Cale�s extremely annoyed voice. Tasha, who was next to them, interjected.

�Then the citizens of the capital must know nothing right now.�

Billos looked toward Tasha and nodded his head.

�Yes, the only thing that the royal family said was that the war was going to go longer than expected.�

He thought about the current situation in the capital.

The elongation of war.

That made the citizens gather in different spots in the capital while hoping for the Empire to win and for the Imperial Prince to save the Empire.

��The majority of people do not know about the Empire�s defeat, about how the Imperial Prince and the nobles ran away, nor about the reappearance of black magic.�

Billos peeked to look at Cale before continuing to speak.

�That was why Sir Rex, Miss Freesia, and I focused on figuring out the current state of things rather than spreading the truth.�

It would have been bad if any of them had ended up being captured while blabbing about the truth.

Especially while Cale was not there.

�Then what do you mean by the Imperial Prince not being here?�

Billos turned his head toward the source of the voice.

Choi Han, who was standing there with brown hair, was looking at him.

Ahem.

Billos let out a fake cough before resuming his explanation.

�You should already know that I have connections with the purchase of goods for the soldiers.�

The group nodded their heads.

That was how they had been able to tell when the Imperial Prince would head to the Whipper Kingdom and how large his force would be.

�I was able to figure a few things out using those connections.�

Billos lifted up one finger. JrNovels.com
