The next day, early in the morning.
Iron Rock Village.
The team of professionals staying overnight had not slept well.
The matter of the Evil Cult hung over them like a massive stone, oppressively heavy.
If they didn't investigate, the cult would continue to wreak havoc, leading to more deaths.
If they proceeded with the investigation, they were likely to encounter danger, and given the current state of Yeko Kingdom, it seemed unlikely they could muster military support.
The preparations were almost complete.
Yuli, showing some dark circles under her eyes, lightly knocked on a door.
"Auntie, we're all ready, we can leave now," she said.
"Release the Tamed Beast first, I'll be out soon," Slyther said, turning her head as she sat at the table.
"Okay!" Yuli turned and left.
Slyther turned back and finished penning the last bit of a letter on the table.
Picking up the letter, she glanced at it.
"Hope it's not needed."
