Both Keith and Hana held their breath as they crossed the last barrier between them and the elf princess. No one had asked them to confirm their identity yet which was a miracle.
They easily slipped into the last corridor and glared at the people who were keeping a guard on the elf princess's room. The guards looked sloppy, with one of them even yawning tiredly.
"Oh man, you both are finally here. Good, now take over the shift for us. We are tired and would like to rest."
The second guard spoke in a lethargic manner.
There was no way to know how long these two had kept guard in front of the princess's room without sleep, but what was known was that the guard's attention span was swindling. And that was what they needed to take advantage of.
"Please, leave the shift over to us and have a rest. You are lucky that we managed to find you and come here early."
