Hill returned to his room to change his clothes, filled with trepidation: Was his calm life about to be disturbed once more?
As Hill followed Fran down from the carriage and approached the King's Hall, he realized that William too was prepared.
The welcoming path was lined with proud guards of the King's Guard, while the remaining corners were occupied by the Undead Tribe.
Hill couldn't help but curl his lip: William sure reacts fast!
Those Undead standing beside the Royal Palace were all those he had dealt with and witnessed over the past few days.
Guarding the entrance were the earnest Snow Cloud Peak and Perfect Bald.
The couple, Cunlü and Hard Wind, were hiding behind a pillar, stealthily waving at him.
"Why are they guarding the Royal Palace?" Adrian asked softly.
"They are all those who have made gains in my valley these few days," Hill said quietly.
