"Wait! Wait! Wait! You created a tunnel, but you opened it on the south side of this continent, right?" Jess asked No.300 as if sothing triggered inside her mind.
"N-No... We opened the tunnel on the north side of the continent," No.300 replied.
"Fuck! You have to stop your soldiers from coming out," Jess spoke up.
"What happened? Is there sothing wrong in that area?" Mike asked.
"Yes, that area is under General Faith. She is a very good Mage... She is sharp... She is ruthless. When I was the queen, she had this technique of catching criminals in her area... She would cast an array over the area, and whenever a violent mana spell or sothing unknown entered that place, she imdiately went there and eliminated the problem.
If you guys opened the tunnel in that area, she must've known about it by now. Your soldiers are in grave danger," Jess explained.
"I will contact them right—" suddenly No.300 went silent.
Knock-knock-knock
"Did she track us?" Mike asked as he summoned his daggers.
"No... It's master." No.300 said as she looked at the door.
Jess moved toward the door and opened it.
As soon as she opened the door... She saw that Anon was standing at the gate.
No.300 imdiately went down on her knees as soon as she saw Anon.
Anon walked inside the house, and Jess closed the door behind him.
"I was sleeping, and suddenly sothing happened... 50 Ogres from my party were dead. Anyone care to explain why?" Anon asked with a calm expression.
"It was all my fault, master. My n ssed up the tunnel opening location and went to the other side of the kingdom... Please forgive ," No.300 apologized imdiately.
"Okay, so you fucked up the coordinates that I gave you and opened the tunnel on the wrong side, is that it?" Anon asked No.300.
"Y-Yes, your highness. I am ready for any punishnt," No.300 spoke as she looked down.
"Then, how did the ogres die?" Anon asked.
"It was Faith," Jess spoke.
"Please elaborate..." Anon spoke as he looked at Jess.
"Faith, the 7th Commander of my army. She was the most loyal Commander in my army. She loves the Kingdom, and those who even think of hurting it... She is their worst nightmare. She has no rcy for anyone.
She manages the area that the ogres opened the tunnel into, and she must've killed everyone that ca out of the tunnel," Jess explained.
"Okay... That ans she will follow the tunnel back to its other end, right?" Anon asked.
"She definitely will," Jess asked.
"She won't be able to. I ordered my n to close the tunnel from the middle point and create fake evidence, so that she believes that the tunnel was started from there and not from the Human Kingdom," No.300 spoke.
"Even if you do that... This will get more difficult now. Faith will not sit silently, she will get this news to my sister, and that bitch will increase the security around the kingdom by ten tis," Jess spoke.
"Wait, You said that this Faith, She was your loyal Commander, right? Why don't we take her in on this?" Mike spoke up.
"No, I never said she was loyal to ," Jess spoke up.
"What do you an?" Mike asked.
"She was a patriot, and that ans she was loyal to the crown only. Right?" Anon asked.
"Yes, when I was the queen, she was loyal to . Now, she is loyal to my sister," Jess explained.
"Master, I have disappointed you... Please claim my life this instant." No.300 said as she pulled her axe out and put it into Anon's foot.
After this, she removed her hair from her neck and bent down in front of Anon, so that he could cut her neck off.
Anon picked up the axe.
"Wait, you are not going to kill her, right? She was with you in every condition. You are not a fucking monster, are you?" Jess spoke as she tried to stop Anon.
"Shut up." Anon said as he moved toward No.300.
Due to the slave collar, Jess had to follow his command and shut her mouth.
"No.300, I have lost 50 n today..." Anon spoke as he looked at her neck.
"Yes, your highness. I know it's an unforgivable cri, and—" No.300 said, as she had a very sad expression on her face.
"I can't lose anymore. Stand up." Anon commanded.
"Y-Your highness?" No.300 stood up as she looked at Anon.
"We make mistakes, but we never repeat them. We learn from them. I want you to learn from your mistake." Anon said as he handed her back her axe.
"I understand, your highness. I will never repeat such things." No.300 replied as she again went on her knees.
"What will happen now?" Anon asked Jess because she knew better than him about the kingdom.
Jess didn't reply to anything because she was under his previous command.
"You can speak now." Anon commanded.
"As I told you before, she will report this to my sister, and then the checking will start."
"Checking?" Mike asked.
"Yes, soldiers will start to check every single house and see if everything is alright or not. They will count the family mbers. They will search the houses, if you are under any suspicion from the past. Especially if you worked for ," Jess said as she looked at Lucy.
"Shouldn't we run away?" Lucy asked.
"No, Luv, you will stay here with your daughter, and you guys will also stay with her." Anon commanded as he looked at Lucy and all the others.
"Yes, master." All of them spoke up in unison.
"Good... Jess, what can you tell about this Faith girl?" Anon asked.
"Well, she is not a very social girl. Her husband died 100 years ago, and she has one daughter. She studies in the academy.
She cos to the hunt festival every year and grants one wish of the winner." Jess explained.
As soon as she spoke the last line... A new evil plan ford in Anon's mind.
"Hehehe... This is going to be fun." Anon said as an evil smile appeared on his face.
"Oh no... The psychopathic smile is back." Jess spoke as she moved three steps back from Anon.
