“W, what the…! How dare you use a word like bullshit toward her majesty!”

The oldest child looked toward Cale and pointed rudely at him. He looked as if he could not speak properly because he was in disbelief.

On the other hand, Jopis had an elegant smile on her face as she nodded her head.

The boy who saw her reaction raised his voice even more and shouted toward Cale and Jopis.

“This, what indecency! You are just a traitor anyway!”

‘That kid sure has a loud voice.’

Cale shook his head from side to side.

“Haaaaaa. Looks like we’ll need to fight while carrying baggage.”

“W, what?”

The boy could not hide his shock at Cale who called him baggage.

Cale didn't care as he casually commented back.

“You guys are hostages. Hostages.”

The boy and the other children’s expressions changed after hearing his comment.

The gazes of the older children turned grim and they all started to shout.

“We cannot be hostages! Just kill us! We will not become a hindrance to her majesty!”

“That’s right, kill us!”

"We would gladly die for her majesty!”

‘Wow. Do these punks even know what it means to die?’

Cale looked toward Jopis in disbelief.

“They’ve been seriously bewitched.”

Cale recalled the first time he met Elisneh.

She had bewitched the people of the Lord’s Castle. He remembered the badge on their clothes at that time.

‘I don’t see something like a badge on the children. She supposedly cast an illusion on everyone inside the palace, but how did she do it?’

Cale was stealthily looking at the royal children and Elisneh’s subordinates.

He thought that she might have cast an illusion around the entire palace after hearing that everybody in the palace was bewitched.

However, that should have meant that Cale and the others would have been bewitched once they entered the palace grounds, but that had not happened and there was also the information the Mercenary King gave him.

‘Do you know how many merchants and nobles go in and out of the palace? There’s no way she could cast an illusion on all of them.’

Cale asked Jopis a question as he thoroughly observed the children.

“How do we wake them up?”

An elegant voice responded to him.

“…There was a time I smacked the shit out of my father’s back. He still did not snap out of the illusion.”

‘Mm… That wasn’t the kind of response I expected.’

Jeet approached Cale and whispered behind him as Cale stood there at a loss for words.

"Sir, they’re here.”

Cale's eyes clouded over.

It was at that moment.

“What?!”

Cale heard someone shout in shock and he looked toward the speaker.

Elisneh’s eyes were glowing red and she seemed to be listening to something.

“Cale-nim.”

Cale heard Choi Han’s voice at that moment as he saw a dagger flying past him.

It was Choi Han’s dagger that he had received from Ron.

“Squeeeak-!”

He then heard a rat scream.

Cale laughed as he looked toward Elisneh.

“How can you get any information when your informant is injured?”

“…Is it your doing?”

“Who else could it be?”

The middle-aged man wearing glasses approached Elisneh.

“What is it, your majesty?”

Elisneh kept her mouth shut as she glared at Cale.

The old man with the mirror stepped forward and looked inside the mirror.

“Hold on. Oh my. Looks like some rats made their way into the palace.”

“Rats?”

“The Elves have invaded. Tsk.”

The other two subordinates stiffened up as Elisneh looked down at Cale and started to speak.

“Apparently, numerous Elves have passed the city walls and are marching toward the palace.”

Jopis looked toward Cale. She recalled how Cale had said that they had a lot of allies.

Elisneh looked at Cale as if he was ridiculous as she asked.

“Did you think we would not be able to do anything if you attacked us on multiple fronts?”

“Who knows?”

“Hmph.”

Elisneh snorted and raised her hand.

Her three subordinates stepped forward.

The old man with the mirror gently commented.

"We expected the Elves would come with you. Pity that more lives would be lost for no reason.”

“Are you saying the Elves will die?”

Jeet stepped forward. He was glaring at the enemies.

“Indeed. The Elves will be defeated by dead mana the moment they pass through the palace's main entrance.”

The old man could see Jeet started to smile after hearing his friendly warning.

“…Why are you smiling?”

"We are not going to cross the palace fence.”

“What?”

The middle-aged man with glasses flinched at Jeet’s comment but Cale immediately started to speak.

“Choi Han, Tasha!”

“Yes, sir!”

Choi Han started to move toward the royal children.

Jopis quickly followed behind him.

“I won’t let you!”

The old man with a quill pen lowered his hand and ripped out a spatial pocket bag he pulled out.
