Chapter: 2785

The extremely nervous alchemist reported today�s happenings to Adin.

�Yes, your highness. Didn�t a lot of alchemists participate in the Whipper Kingdom battle this time? They seemed to be worried that their family members ended up there as well, so they were asking for any information about them or asking to see them if they were in the Alchemists� Bell Tower.�

�Why so suddenly?�

The alchemist shook his head.

�It is not sudden. We have had people show up every so often. The only different thing was that Honte�s younger sibling showed up, which I believe is what made others follow behind them. However, there were still only around ten people.�

�I see. Keep an eye on the slums as well.�

The alchemist quickly bowed after hearing Adin�s orders.

�We need to get rid of any and all variables right now.�

It was because the Imperial Prince�s voice was quite cold.

�I understand, your highness. We will fortify the patrol around the capital three times as much as it currently is today.�

They were using these patrols as a front to keep an eye on things.

Adin nodded his head and the alchemist quickly headed out of the terrace room Adin was in.

�Your highness, do you think something will happen in the slums?�

Adin shook his head at the Imperial doctor�s question.

�Even if something does happen, what could they do? It�s the same today as it was fifteen years ago. We just can�t let false rumors spread throughout the capital.�

Adin was thinking that he needed to strengthen his control over the capital some more.

He took a sip of dead mana.

�It�s still so bland.�

It was extremely bland compared to the black liquid with other people�s despair.

Adin thought about that delicious flavor as he took another sip of dead mana.

At that same time, Cale was in a small forest a bit south of the Empire�s capital.

�The surveillance of the slums has increased?�

�Yes, young master-nim. I heard it from my subordinates.�

Cale nodded his head at Freesia�s response. JrNovels.com
