Green took his time before asking Princess Muer Yatis, "Your Highness, the situation in the Divine Eagle Empire is more or less clear now. What do you plan to do next?"
Princess Muer Yatis turned to look out the floor-to-ceiling window again. "What? Are you in such a hurry to get rid of me?"
Green smiled and said nothing, effectively admitting it.
That left Princess Muer Yatis a little embarrassed. Normally, a host would at least make a polite show of asking her to stay. She gritted her teeth and cursed inwardly, That bastard Green!
But Princess Muer Yatis was a noblewoman raised by the Royal Family. She had learned how to brazen things out. Though furious inside, she said casually, "Unfortunately, I've already told my father I'll be staying here a while longer. Your city is developing well, and I think the Divine Eagle Empire could learn a great deal from it."
Green spread his hands. He had not really intended to drive Princess Muer Yatis away. He had only wanted to prod her and see how she reacted.
That would help him determine whether the news from the Divine Eagle Empire was true.
What, exactly, was Emperor Kronwell's condition?
Unfortunately, Princess Muer Yatis gave almost nothing away...
The next day, the Druid Zombie Selina and Freya were tracking had crossed the Asgar Kingdom and reached the outskirts of Ace City in the North.
Once there, the Druid Zombie slowed down and began circling the area instead of continuing north.
Green knew its destination had to be nearby.
Using Visual Synchronization with a Mechanical Crow, he followed the crow high into the sky and surveyed the terrain below.
A small city stood not far away, with numerous mines in the surrounding mountains. Nothing else seemed unusual.
