When Rhode brought his subordinates to leave High Cliff Village, there was another scene in the Deep Stone City castle.

The Administrative Officer of Paphield Area and Lord of Deep Stone City, Klautz, lowered his head, his face green while looking at the ground. The holy power around him into a gentle breeze similar to a spring wind, but gave off a completely different feeling to Klautz.

"I haven't been in Deep Stone City for such a long time," Lydia said softly. She was enveloped in light, looking outside the window to see Deep Stone City's scenery. "It's still as beautiful as before, nature's masterpiece combined with human wisdom and hard work. Such a perfect combination. Nothing can be compared with this, don't you think so? Sir Klautz?"

"Just as you said, Your Highness." While answering her question, Klautz rubbed the sweat on his forehead.
