In a private room inside the teahouse, a man had already been waiting for Luther. "How is everything going in the city?" Luther
asked.
"Everything is fine," the man replied.
"Where did Prince Matthew and his wife go today?" Luther asked specifically.
"They had been to the morning market and then the Treasure Pavilion. I am not sure what they bought from there."
"The Treasure Pavilion?" Luther frowned. He knew well about the Treasure Pavilion, as it was notorious for selling fake, shoddy
and defective goods in the Birch Pass. The Treasure Pavilion had cheated many people. Yet, the pavilion was very careful in
their dealings and they hardly left any evidence against them. So Luther allowed them to keep running their business.
"Prince Matthew didn't lift the roof of the Treasure Pavilion?" Luther asked curiously. The pavilion was notorious. So he assumed
that if the pavilion dared to cheat Matthew and his wife, the consequences would be serious.
"Not yet. Princess Harper seemed happy when she came out of the pavilion. She carried a box with her, and asked the

A soft and gentle voice abruptly came from behind. When Luther turned back, he was surprised to see one of his old acquaintances. He quickly smiled and said calmly, "I knew you must be

"My purpose is, well, someone here in the Birch Pass." "Who?" Luther asked calmly. The people his acquaintance was looking for couldn't be someone who had been in the Birch Pass for a long time, but would be among the few people who came there recently. That would be the

"Can you make a guess?"
the man asked. The expression on Luther's face changed. He speculated who that person would be, but he didn't speak it out.
He thought it would be better to pretend ignorance, as long as it didn't come to the last step.
But it seemed that the man had read Luther's mind, so he too didn't reveal any names. "When will the envoy team to the South
Kingdom set out?" the man asked.
"Tomorrow morning."
