Upon hearing that person's comment, everyone else in that place nodded in agreement, as they realized that they could not sense any living beings in the surroundings.
And such a thing was odd to these investigators from the Cromwell family since this royal house did not have the information about what had happened in the Yellow City!
The Cromwell Kingdom was separated by an entire state, the Brown Kingdom, from this city in the Kingdom of the Waves. Because of this, typically speaking, news about that border would not reach that organization's headquarters very often.
On the other hand, previously, Yellow City was just a tiny town in the interior of the Kingdom of the Waves, an impoverished place. It was a location that even the royal family of such a state was not interested in!
So, for another royal house in the region, this city didn't have much influence for them to look for local information.
