Chapter 817- Shameless Till the End—Alstin

They themselves were perplexed by the sudden turn of events and would have surely behaved just like the other adventurers if not for the fact that they saw the two children who were among the peculiar group of people who followed Her Highness acting as if nothing happened.

After a while, as the confusion died down, Cynthia who was followed by Annette who walked two steps behind her, entered the place.

Everyone bowed their heads. These unruly adventurers who hardly learned any manners were as docile as a lamb in front of her.
Cynthia nodded her head to put them at ease before moving her eyes towards the huge ash grey doors in front of them blocking their way in.
