Chapter 844 Signs of increased activity

When Haley left my study and the prime minister came in, I didn't notice him at all as I looked in the direction that Haley walked off in.

The prime minister had been confused at first, but he had done a bit of digging in the time that he had been outside the study. He had one of the shadows do some digging and found the connection between Haley and the Zephyr Company.

Once he found that connection, it was easy for the prime minister to figure out what I talked to Haley about alone.

So while I was still staring in the direction of the door, the prime minister suddenly said, "If that's how she wants to handle it, you should leave it to her. I've worked with her for some time now and I know what kind of person she is. She isn't someone to do something irrational."

I narrowed my eyes to look at the prime minister.

There was a part of me that was a bit annoyed that he was making a statement about my wife like this, but I also knew that there was no ill intent behind it and that this was his genuine opinion.

Rather, he was saying this to tell me to trust my own wife.

That was the part that really annoyed me since I didn't feel like I needed someone else to tell me that.

But I knew that he was right.

I knew that she must have her own way of thinking, which was why she was doing this.

So at the same time, I was frustrated that I couldn't do anything to help her.

The prime minister seemed to be able to see this from my face, so he said, "This is just how they communicate as father and daughter. Trust me, I've had my own experience."

There was this sort of bitterness that appeared on his face when he said this.

I knew that he had his own experience with the former king to draw on, so he might really be the best person to say something like this.

Since the prime minister was saying this, I decided that I wouldn't butt in on this matter...

But it wasn't as if I could just leave this alone.

The one that came in was Shadow One, the one that led the shadow squad, which gave even more weight to this situation. If it was the leader who barged in, there was no doubt that this was something serious.

Taking a deep breath, Shadow One said, "There have been signs of increased monster activity all over the kingdom."

Both the prime minister and I immediately knitted our brows when we heard this.

This was the last thing that we had been expecting to hear from Shadow One.

Signs of monster activity were not strange in this kingdom since monsters existed all over the place, but for it to increase all of a sudden...that was not a good sign. Especially since we had just finished the war and were still recovering from it.

The increased signs of monster activity meant that it was very likely that there would be a monster wave soon.

If a monster wave happened, then there was no doubt that the people would suffer.

There just weren't enough forces to defend against the monster wave, even with the wyverns that had been obtained.

However, there was a different reason why I had knitted my brows.

It was because I thought of something else.

This was something from the game.

It was an event.

It was a special event that should have happened around this time in the game's chronology and it was a special event that should have been dealt with by the fourth prince.

However, the main thing was that this was an event that was for the player's benefit.

The increased monster activity was a monster spawn event that happened during the off time which allowed the player to farm more easily.

Who would have thought that this would become a problem once I became the king...
