Chapter 965: Thief

Karyk's observation of the guards was cut short as they entered the inner city, accompanying the carriages. 

Although his observation was brief, he quickly discerned a stark contrast between the inner and outer areas of the city. 

Despite both being part of the same city, they seemed like entirely different worlds. It became evident why the outer citizens were treated poorly while the inner citizens held more authority.

In his future visits to the city, Karyk had only entered the inner part directly, leaving him unaware of what the outer city was like. This time, he was able to see more clearly. 

If the inner city was spacious, the outer city was its complete opposite. Apart from the main road leading from the gate to the inner city, there were no other properly constructed paths.
