*Knock* *Knock* *Knock* A man wearing black colored clothes knocked on the door, "Why the hell are you knocking? Just smash the doors." He suddenly heard an order and he nodded, "A-As you command, Queen Evane." The man then kicked on the door and, *Bam* The door was smashed open. "Go in." As soon as Evane passed the order, 6 men wearing black colored clothes barged into the room. "W-What? What is happening? How dare you barge into my room like this!? Do you think you can get awa- Princess Evane!?" The room owner, who had just taken a bath, came out of his bathroom wearing a bathrobe with an angry look on his face. However, as soon as his eyes fell on Evane, they widened in surprise. "P-Princess Evane! What brings you to this lowly servant's place? You could have summoned me if you needed something, why did you bother to come here?" As confused as he was, the man didn't let that affect his judgment and questioned politely. Evane, however, completely ignored his words and her Green Eyes shined, [Name: Derrick Role ] [Age: 25 ] 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚 [Mana Cultivation: Advance.] [Body Cultivation: Mortal. ] [Race: Human ] [Occupation: Spy] [Talent: Medium] [LVL: 26] [HP: 280/280] [MP: 390/390] [STR: 28] [AGL: 39] [VIT: 28] [STM: 31] [INT: 39] [DEF: 29] … Evane confirmed her thoughts and, "Capture him. He will most likely have poison Pill in his mouth, take care of that." The 6 Men then pounced on the poor Advance Stage Cultivator and soon, he was apprehended. Evane then activated [Sense], Soon, she pointed at a particular wall and ordered, "You, punch there." The man she ordered frowned, however, he still walked toward the wall and punched, The wall broke down and a safe was discovered, The man took out the safe, seeing that, the room owner's eyes widened in surprise and he shouted, "T-That mine! You can't do this! My Priv-" "Shut him up." Evane ordered. The Shadow Unit Member forced a cloth inside the man's mouth and then tied a cloth around his mouth to ensure that he doesn't throw the cloth out. "Mmmhhmmmffmppp!!!" The man still tried to scream, however, this time, it was a lot less annoying than before. The safe was then opened by force and other than some gold, a few documents appeared. Evane took the documents, skimmed through them for a bit, and nodded to herself. "This much is enough, let's go. There are more." By then, the room owner was tied up and was taken out of the room, while they were taking him out, the spy's eyes fell on a man and they brightened in joy. He knew this man! He could save him! Or that's what he thought, however, "Who's next?" Evane questioned. The Spy's ray of hope crumbled when the man answered, "Brook Leyn, a woman working in the clothing department, she should be on duty right now," The Spy couldn't believe what happened right in front of his eyes… The man who he trusted… was actually working for them! Not only that, he was even rating out his other allies! He betrayed them! He betrayed all of them! "MMhhMMmmkkpp!!" Even though he couldn't speak, the spy didn't back away from showing his anger, his eyes were red, however, nobody cared about him. "Alright, let's go to the clothing department," Evane ordered and started walking. She then noticed that two men were needed to take this spy with them, an inefficient way indeed. Evane turned around and suddenly, she kicked the spy. The spy fell on the floor helplessly, Evane tied a rope around his neck, then she passed the rope to a Master Stage Cultivator, "Here, drag him with this." "A-As you c-command, Q-Queen Evane." The Master Stage Cultivator nodded with a surprised look on his face. Evane, however, started walking, the others started walking behind her, and the man was forced to follow the group as well while dragging a spy by a… rope… "P-Princess Evane." Every servant bowed their head when they saw Evane passing by, however, at the same time, they observed how the man was being taken away and couldn't help but discuss. "W-What in the hell is happening…" "Why was he taken away like that…?" "I don't know… but that… that… seems painful…" "Painful? That man is nearly choking!" "Just what did he do to deserve something like this?" "Who knows…?" All the people who witnessed this were shocked, scared even, they didn't know what was happening. Actually, Evane and these 7 were not the only people who were doing this, there were 11 more groups, all of them breaking into people's rooms, capturing people without any explanation, and taking them away. The guards, the people of the security division, the clothing division, the kitchen, the maids, and many other servants, off duty or on duty, were being captured from all over the Palace. People were panicking, nobody knew what was happening, this 'random' capturing scared them. Many felt like they would be the ones next. Some even tried asking the higher-ups, however, all of the higher-ups were silent. 'If you are innocent, then you will be fine…' That was their only answer. The Higher-ups knew what was happening. They saw what happened today, Queen Evane promised to catch all the spies in front of everyone. That woman who seemed to be highly respected by all the King Stage Cultivators gave her the permission to do anything she wanted, to capture anyone she wanted without needing to explain herself. They knew this was going to happen… However, they never thought it would this quickly… A complete cleanup was being carried on in the Royal Palace… All the higher-ups were looking forward to seeing the results of this cleanup. Of course, they would have preferred if the responsibility of cleaning all this mess didn't fall on their shoulders… Explaining everything to the panicked crowd, sealing out the rooms that have been searched through, placing guards everywhere to ensure nobody does anything stupid… Haahhhh… All the higher-ups sighed.
