Mo Fei nodded in agreement. He really had nothing to say about the Okade scholar's deductions; it all seemed exactly right.
Okade (Scholar): "So, does Prince Aidan plan to stay and observe our archaeological progress?"
Aidan (Prince of Altland): "Yes, as the Prince of Altland, it's my duty to ensure the personal safety of our guests and to prevent any unfortunate incidents that people do not wish to see. I hope everyone can understand."
Such matters were to be expected. Although Altland was the weakest and least noticeable of the seven kingdoms, it was still an independent kingdom. With a large group of people conducting activities on our land, it wouldn't have mattered if we hadn't noticed, but once we did, it was only natural to observe and keep an eye on things.
Okade (Scholar): "Of course, we would be delighted."
