My Wife and I Became Sages in Another World

After exchanging more information with Lord and Lady Bao, we told them to keep treating the two kids as they were before so that nobody would suspect them.

I knew that they trusted their servants and vice versa, but we couldn’t be too risky, considering we were in a devil’s domain.

I just didn’t want them to go around calling Yujun "my prince" or something, as it would just put him in a lot of danger. Of course, they agreed.

I told Lord Bao to act naturally at the palace and keep doing his usual job. Even if he heard there was a commotion caused by us, I wanted him to keep acting the part.

My main reason was that I didn’t want to put the Bao family and their servants in danger, and even if the man brought a whole squadron of soldiers with him, it wouldn’t matter against Melina and me.

When he asked us what our plans were, our only response was. "Free the slaves and kill the devil, of course."

If we killed Vyrazul first, that would lead to the freedom of everyone. However, that would also mean a large-scale battle against her and her army in one place.

But, if we started attacking different areas of the city and freeing commoners in the outskirts, then her forces would have to split into different districts, giving us more space to act.

I also asked Lord Bao about the Scarlet Trio and the mage called Sinoc, and his face changed from hopeful to somber in an instant.

I had heard the name when we were eavesdropping on the nobles’ meeting at Xiulan, where one of them voiced out the idea of asking the emperor to send the Scarlet Trio for help.

Bao told us that the trio were brought in by the empress’ herself. It was right after the emperor declared that he wanted to give his new wife a trusted group of soldiers to protect her.
