"I'm coming in." Noel knocked on Anna's door before entering her room. He carefully entered the room and asked, "How is my voice from outside?"

"It's quite loud."

"So, don't talk too loud here." Noel nodded and brought the chair next to the bed.

With Noel sitting in front of her, Anna lowered her voice and said, "Do you see the situation outside?"

"Yeah. It's pretty horrible."

"Most of them might be old, but some were certainly new, like within a week. Also, the inn is so expensive. I could stay for a week or even two in an inn with this quality elsewhere."

"They're simply taking advantage of their position and since it comes with a risk, so I can understand the price." Noel could understand the price because his family was a merchant family, but the other topic also concerned him a bit. "Anyway, let's not talk about the price."

"Well, I don't know much about it. I actually want to listen to your opinion."

Noel thought for a moment and told her the truth. "Personally, I believe that the guard is trying to warn us. It's clear that there is some kind of problem around here. Is it related to the liquid?"

"That's a possibility as well, considering this liquid also works for demons… But I'm not very sure because the entrance should be sealed."

"Sealed, huh. But what kind of problem will they face in this area? It's true that the demons are rather active around here. The missions we completed during our trip to this place signified an unusual movement from the demons."

"Yeah. I wonder what's happening right now. Should we report this to the Demon Banner Army?"
