Paul and Ben walked into the mansion while Jonathan and Zion were left to protect their carriages.

Under the guidance of Henderson, they met the butler of the mansion, who guided them directly to the guest room, who wanted to wait for their lord.

"What do you think, Ben?" Paul asked after making sure they were alone.

"It's not good. The mansion is guarded tightly but the people are suffering. It's as if he fears the people will get crazy and start a rebellion because of the government's own fault. And the fact that he is here without getting prepared to meet us means the lord is someone who isn't standing by… I mean, the time right now is like an hour before our lunchtime, so usually, the lord is working right now.

"The fact that they're making us wait this long during this day means the lord is doing something else… It doesn't seem to be sleeping due to overworking either." Ben explained while looking around the room. "As expected, we should finish this job as soon as possible. And I don't think it's a good option to live somewhere in this city…"

"So, we'll immediately head out and exterminate the demons. Well, scouting first, so I guess we'll camp outside."

"Yeah. That's probably the best option right now. Five days… No, four days should be enough."

"Sure. I'll also put some work into this mission. I don't want to put my people in this kind of situation as well." Paul nodded.

It took the lord twenty minutes before he entered the room with the butler.

"I apologize for making you wait too long." He said. The lord was a twenty years old young man who had spiky, short red hair. He dressed neatly like that a noble, but Paul and Ben noticed the faint odor of alcohol that the body was releasing. There was even a sweet perfume mixed into it.
