"It appears that the situation is even worse than we had anticipated."

Skyler realized the gravity of the situation and couldn't help but worry. "Does Roni know about this?"

Despite Matthew's insistence on calling her "sister-in-law," Skyler was accustomed to referring to Veronica by his nickname for her and found it difficult to change his habit.

Matthew no longer insisted on that anymore.

He shook his head, his gaze becoming more intense. "I can't bring myself to inform her."

"Then let's continue our investigation and inform her once everything is clear," Skyler suggested.

Matthew agreed with the suggestion.

The two sat together and discussed the plan for the hunting ceremony before Matthew and Veronica eventually left together.

...

The hunting ceremony.

Although the hunting ceremony took place twice a year, this time it coincided with the grand ceremony that only occurred once every ten years. Additionally, a month later would be the significant day when the new head of the hidden clan would ascend the throne. Therefore, this year's hunting ceremony was particularly grand.

Following Crayson's instructions, Matthew disguised himself once again, almost completely concealing his true identity with the art of disguise.

Crayson had prepared special costumes for the hidden clan to wear during the hunting ceremony and asked Matthew and Veronica to change into them.

After they finished getting ready and came downstairs, they sat at the dining table to have their meal.

The atmosphere at the dining table was solemn, with everyone eating quietly.

It wasn't until after the meal that Crayson looked at the two of them and uttered, "Come with me. I have something to tell you."

Hearing that, the two followed Crayson to a small study next to Crayson's bedroom on the first floor.

In the study, Crayson took out a miniature translating device. "Veronica, you have only been learning the hidden tongue for a month since you came to the hidden clan. You can use this translating device."
