Cale took a sip of the lemon tea and stealthily put it down after seeing Ron start to walk.

�Human! Is lemon tea tasty?�

Cale felt Ron looking at him after hearing Raon�s innocent question. He voluntarily drank the rest of the lemon tea before they left toward Princess Jopis�s residence.

�Young master-nim, it is over there.�

Cale quietly observed the small old house Ron was pointing toward.

�It looks easy to escape from there.�

Choi Han looked at the shabby and low fence around the house as he commented to Cale. However, Glenn shook his head.

�That is not the case.�

Cale looked toward Glenn.
Glenn pointed to the area around the small house.

It was a small house built on top of a tiny hill right underneath the rugged Molden mountain range.
There were no trees around that house and there was a small village at the bottom of the hill.

�There are three types of people living in that village.�

They could see people moving about the village, and a lot of them seemed to raise dogs as they kept hearing barking.

�Most of them are people who have lived here for generations. Other than them, half of the remaining people are people who are watching Princess Jopis.�

A small house on a tiny hill without any trees.
That was an easy spot to observe from the village.
Choi Han�s expression turned odd.

��Even if it is easy to observe this house from the village, how is there nobody observing the house from a closer distance?�

Wasn�t observing from a nearby location the most certain and easiest way?
Glenn answered that question.

�The last group of people living in this village is the people who served Princess Jopis until the very last moment.�

The people keeping an eye on Jopis were not only watching her.

�The nanny who raised her since she was young, her servants, maids, guard knight, administrator, and teacher. They are all in the village without the power to do anything.�

As for the guard knight, they had maimed his arms before forcing him to live here forever. It was the same for some other knights as well.

�The watchdogs in the village come up to Princess Jopis�s house at set times to confirm her presence. There are also tens of magic alarms set that are difficult for anyone who is not a highest-grade mage to avoid.� JrNovels.com
