Chapter 109: The Hero Always Arrives Late
One of the hooded men, standing behind the group leader, suddenly spoke in a confused tone.
"Leader, they're triplets. Which one is our target?"
The group leader snorted in annoyance, then glared at his subordinate with a sharp look.
"Idiot. Didn't you read the information provided? The Seventh King's lover is pregnant—there's only one pregnant woman here. That woman is our target."
He shifted his gaze towards Itsuki, his eyes hidden behind the hood emitting a sharp glint that made Itsuki even more frightened.
"...!!!"
Itsuki held her breath, her body trembling even more violently.
Hearing the others' conversation, Nino and Miku didn't fully understand what they were talking about, but Itsuki could vaguely guess.
The same man who had asked earlier glanced at Nino and Miku, then asked again:
"Then what about the other two women?"
The leader answered without hesitation, his tone flat but full of cruelty.
