Ryan nodded, listening intently, as the name was very important to him.
The two men exchanged glances before looking around them, ensuring no one was listening. Then, with a subtle gesture, they beckoned Ryan to come closer, creating a more mysterious and secretive atmosphere.
"Welos is rumored to have killed the Head of the Perliand Family before," whispered the bespectacled man, his tone very low, almost inaudible. "However, Welos has always denied the accusations, and so far, there is no evidence to bring him down. The reason for Welos's departure from the Dement Kingdom has never been clear, but now he has returned, and most likely, it is all because of the Redrin Metal Ore Mine located near the Perliand family's territory."
Ryan nodded, understanding how important this information was. "Welos has returned to claim what he considers his," Ryan thought. This meant that Welos might be more dangerous than Ryan had previously suspected, especially if he was indeed involved in the struggle for the valuable mine. This mission could be more complicated and high-risk.
"Is that so? Thank you very much." Ryan smiled warmly and nodded politely.
"Not a problem!" The black-haired man sighed in relief, feeling he had completed his task.
"Exactly! Come back if you want to know anything else!" The bespectacled man added, his smile widening with enthusiasm.
Ryan merely responded with a thin smile before turning and heading to the public restroom. There, Ryan quickly changed his appearance, concealing his recognizable features. After feeling safe, Ryan then returned to his room from one of the cabins on the Magic Airship.
As soon as he entered the dimly lit room, Ryan quickly moved toward the wall on the left side of the room. Without hesitation, Ryan immediately passed through the wall, like a shadow merging with the darkness. He emerged in another adjacent room, where Ellina, Charlotte, and Rosseline were waiting.
"So, Young Master Ryan, did you manage to get the information we needed?" Ellina, always alert, immediately asked upon seeing Ryan.
Ryan nodded and calmly explained, "There is some important information. The person named Welos likely did kill the previous Head of the Perliand Family. Additionally, Welos's purpose for coming to the Dement Kingdom seems to be related to internal issues within the Perliand family."
Rosseline nodded calmly, showing no surprise at the news. "The Dement Kingdom is indeed the center of attention for many parties. All eyes are on it."
Ellina then looked at Ryan, her eyes filled with hope. "So, what will we do next, Young Master Ryan?"
Ryan fell silent, thinking hard. The mission he received asked him to kill Welos, but his instincts told him that Welos was not a simple opponent. Thinking of a way to defeat the man required careful strategy.
After a moment of contemplation, Ryan finally looked at Rosseline. His gaze turned sharp and cold, causing Rosseline to be startled and tremble in fear.
"How long until we reach the Dement Kingdom?" Ryan asked in a flat yet pressing voice.
"Eh?" Rosseline was taken aback, confusion crossing her face.
"Why?" Ryan's sharp gaze and icy voice made the atmosphere in the room seem to freeze.
Rosseline was taken aback, her face paling. "Ah! No! It's nothing!" Rosseline stammered. "Regarding the travel time to the Dement Kingdom, we will reach the border in three to five days. However, to reach the capital, it will take at least another ten to fifteen days."
