As I initially assessed, this place was a cave.
It seemed to stretch on endlessly, both long and deep.
Even after walking for several minutes with the White Lotus Sword, the path showed no sign of ending.
âAt least I can walk without any issues.â
I calmly continued forward, closely monitoring my physical condition.
There didnât seem to be any major problems with my muscles or bones.
From the tips of my toes to the top of my head, I carefully examined each part of my body while also listening to the White Lotus Swordâs words.
"Your companions are resting above. Until recently, the Tang Clanâs child was looking after you. It was right when we swapped shifts that you woke up.â
The White Lotus Sword, as always, was quite talkative.
âThat child must have been disappointed. They were so worried about what to do if you didnât wake up, and then the moment they stepped away, you opened your eyes.â
It seemed Tang So-yeol had been very concerned about me.
âIâll have to apologize later.â
Another task to add to my list.
Ignoring the White Lotus Swordâs chatter for a moment, I organized the information I had received on the way here.
First, the circumstances that led to me arriving in this place.
âRight after I lost consciousness, they said a scouting party appeared while assessing the situation.ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
I had heard that soldiers from the Lord of the Ice Palace discovered the scene while patrolling the area.
No, to be preciseâ¦
âPaejon captured them while they were scouting, didnât he?â
Before the soldiers even reached their destination, Paejon found and captured them, interrogating them to confirm their identities.
Apparently, judging them to not be enemies, they ended up here with the princess.
At first, I wondered if it was okay to just recklessly bring people here, but seeing the White Lotus Sword here seemed to confirm it.
Of course, if the White Lotus Sword turned out to be an enemy, that would be a different story entirely.
âIf that happens, wellâ¦â
Things would get troublesome.
Though I doubted that would be the case.
Incidentally, the enemy soldiers captured at that time were reportedly locked in a torture chamber.
