"Thank you, please come in," Rebecca said, turning to lead the way.
As Hubert and his companion followed, Hubert continued to ask, "Why haven't we seen Lord Aubrey?"
"My husband met with an unexpected accident not long ago," Rebecca said in a calm tone, with no trace of melancholy to be heard.
Hubert and his companion were both stunned, their brows furrowing for a long while before they responded, "Our condolences, ma'am."
"Ah, Aubrey did much for the city. This time, he managed to draw out all the Faceless," Rebecca replied.
After Aubrey planned to assassinate Rebecca.
He enraged Rebecca thoroughly, leading her to purge all the Faceless in the city.
"Does this mean that the Faceless are already so active in Lyss City?" Hubert asked in surprise.
"Lyss City is still relatively peaceful. No major disturbances have occurred," Rebecca responded.
As they chatted during their walk, they arrived at the City Lord's mansion.
Before entering the mansion.
