After listening to this story, Benjamin felt a shiver down in his spine.
If what was told by the Guild Master was true, and the Queen had really used this strange method to control the Mage Guild, then Regina was a rather dangerous place for them to be at.
If the Queen knew Benjamin and the group were here, they might be forced to be ‘recruited’.
Just that...
"By telling me all these things, do you wish for me to help you guys?" Benjamin suddenly spoke and asked this.
Upon hearing this, the old man showed a bitter smile and shook his head. He said, "You can’t help us. Her Majesty the Queen has a strong army and thirty elite mercenaries to protect her at all times. She never meets the mages alone. She doesn’t reveal any loopholes to us. Except for the three mages in front of you, I can’t even tell which mages are informers who betray our information to the queen, and which ones are independent ones."
... Was she so hard to deal with?
Benjamin could not help but be afraid.
