Chapter 246: Expecting

It was Atlas' first time seeing what the ship actually looked like. The ship seemed to be much bigger than his initial expectancy. 

There were guards spread around the ship, all being completely alert. Fortunately, it didn't look like they were able to sense him. 

Despite their being guards, the forces were still much smaller than Atlas initially expected. When he didn't see any guards outside the forest, he thought they would be guarding the ships instead, but at the moment, even that didn't seem to be the case. 

According to Luna, there were supposed to be at least a hundred powerful warriors that came through each ship. Moreover, since it was the main fleet of the Prince, the guards should only be more than the usual fleets had. However, for some reason, he couldn't even see more than twenty people guarding the ship. 

"Are the rest inside the ship? But why would so many of them be inside even now?" Atlas wondered as it seemed quite unlikely.
