That night, in Prince Ranler's mansion.
"Your Highness, we successfully captured the adventurers from the Skyrim Strategy Group. They seemed to offer no resistance at all."
The Bodyguard Captain was reporting the night's events to Prince Ranler, standing before him. Both his attire and appearance, as well as the other bodyguards around him, resembled those black-clad men from some gambler's manga.
"Hmm."
Ranler was casually leaning back in his seat, reading a book. Upon hearing the news, he just nodded and said:
"Lock them up for a couple of days, treat them well. Such talents might be useful in the future."
"Yes."
"By the way, spread some news outside saying that they have been severely punished. This will pacify the public anger, but of course, just say it, don't actually harm them."
