**Q:** What’s the benefit of being bound to the [Chef]?

**A:** You get a more sumptuous lunch than everyone else!

Using her role to her advantage, Rosvisser managed to gather quite a bit of food, and she and Leon enjoyed a meal together in the communal kitchen.

After lunch, the couple sat down to review the clues and item cards they had gathered.

First, they examined a handful of scattered clue cards:

- **[Two friends were once favored by the Princess; the three have been close friends since childhood.]**

- **[Although the Queen deeply loves the Princess, she seems to have another agenda.]**

- **[Among the eight players, there are at least two lone wolves. They are isolated but possess unique advantages.]**

- **[There is a special scene within the castle. Completing a task within the scene will trigger a 'Fate of All.']**

"So... Moon and Aurora's friends group should be part of the confirmed good side," Leon mused, his gaze slowly shifting to the clue card about the [Queen].

"But this card says that Claudia's [Queen] identity has another purpose. If all players on the good side have the main task of protecting the Princess and finding the Black Sacred Stone, then what could the [Queen]'s other purpose be?" he wondered.

Rosvisser shook her head. "So far, Claudia hasn’t shown any signs. She barely speaks during meetings, so it’s hard to deduce her main objective."

Her observation was accurate; it had been hours since the game started, yet Claudia hadn’t joined anyone in traveling around or contributed much during the meetings.

With such scarce information, they couldn’t deduce her intentions.

"No worries, the game’s just begun. As more clues surface, we’ll be able to piece together the answer," Leon reassured her.

"Mhm."

Next, they examined a clue card about the [Lone Wolf].@@novelbin@@

This was the card Leon found most intriguing.
