970 Chapter 970: Same yet different

Karyk observed the Palace from a safe distance. The once abandoned palace looked full of life now. Light could be seen coming through most of the windows of the well lit palace.

He also saw the Carriage that had brought the guests from the Sea Region. The Palace was standing in front of a smaller mansion not far from the Palace.

The Royal Family did not trust the guests enough to keep them in the palace and arranged other places for them.

There were also many guards spread all around the palace, and their position was just as seen on your map. Guards were assigned in front of the guest mansion to keep them safe as well.

"The map is definitely correct. Since the positions haven't been changed, that must mean that the infiltration has not happened yet. If something like that had happened, this entire place would be in commotion."

Karyk positioned himself according to the map. He also created a few shadows to cover other weak points. He wanted to see the person who was infiltrating the palace.

He covered all the weak points in the defense that were marked on the map. All that was left to do was waiting.

One hour passed as he kept waiting. But nothing happened. The guards remained in their place like statues, and he had not seen anyone trying to enter the palace yet. Another hour passed, and it was almost midnight. But there was still no movement. It was only when another hour passed that Karyk noticed someone. However, that person was not trying to enter the palace. Instead, that person was coming out of the palace.

Usually, there was nothing suspicious at people coming out of the palace as there were many people who worked for the Royal Palace. However, Karyk was quite careful.

If it was any other night, he might not have thought much about it. But it was the night before the grand celebration. And the person was leaving after midnight.

"Is he the person who created and leaked this map?"

He sent a shadow to follow the servant, trying to see where this guy was going to do. At the same time, he planned to stay behind.

Karyk had initially thought that he might be the Prince of this era, but he had dropped that thought when he found out the age of the Prince. But still, he could not let go of the feeling that the two of them were interlinked.

Looking at the boy was only looking back at his past, which should not have happened.

"Should I approach him instead?" Karyk thought about changing his plan.

Even if someone was to infiltrate the palace, what could they even achieve? The Emperor and Empress were too strong. They could not kill them. As for killing the servants, what could that even achieve?

He had already guessed the goals of the infiltrators even though he had not seen them. The only thing that they could do was either steal something, or kill the

Prince.

Stealing something was impossible, because the map did not mark the treasury. And even if that was the plan, could the Royal Family make it easy to steal a treasure? Although he already guessed the plan, he did not know why they wanted to kill the Prince. In any case, he considered the possibility that he might be wrong.

Still, he changed his plan. This time, he left his shadows here and went to meet the Prince himself. It was not easy to meet the Prince at other times, as he was heavily protected inside the palace.

Only by meeting the Prince could he confirm just how they were related.
