Chapter 89 - Social Queues

Scanning through the crowd, the cloaked man elicited a frustrated sigh. 

"It's like searching for a needle in a haystack. What is this crowd? The crowd is even bigger here than in the capital!"

Now, with his royal treasure hidden, he glanced at the crowd once again. 

'It is here somewhere… The best option would be to stay close to the door and watch everyone that leaves… The resonance will be stronger as the 2 artifacts are closer to each other."
