Getting to the capital of Smargdas was a chaotic affair and Truen told his companions to stick close to him. Zero fiddled with his adventurer's identity gem on his wrist and Bob wondered how Truen was going to get him inside the city. It would have been better if he reverted into his miniature lizard form to hide in Zero's shirt but Truen rejected the idea.
"Next!" the city guard called out and it was their turn.
Truen pulled out a letter and the guard's eyes widened at the stamp and signature. Nobody messes with Lady Death's members in Smargdas and while security checks were stricter ever since Duke Connie started introducing a new measure to stop illegal slavery and refugees from entering the capital, Truen easily passed when Zero flashed his adventurer's identification stone that they scanned briefly.
Bob was stopped and Truen cleared his throat. "He's with me."
