Chapter 213. To the Dungeon of the Doppelganger (1)
There was no time for Caron and Amy to share a heartfelt reunion. They immediately set off toward the area where the problem had occurred.
"Give me a status report, Amy," Caron said.

Amy nodded and continued her explanation. "Are you aware that the Imperial Guards conduct regular patrols in the northern regions?"
"Yes, I know that much," Caron answered.
"Three days ago, during a routine patrol, we received an order from higher up. The directive was to secure Rigor, which had appeared near Riard," Amy explained.
The Imperial Guards served the royal family. So, if the order had come from higher up, it had to be from the royal family itself.
