Living With My Lady Boss by Blue Silver novel Chapter 2424

Skermann was under great pressure and tension because of its economy and the steadily rising number of refugees. On top of that, some of the refugees had been disrupting the peace in Skermann and wreaking havoc.

Despite all of that, Wilbur did not feel any of that tension here. Maybe Wendis was just a more relaxed town? It was only after Wilbur had zoomed in on a map of Skermann that he realized that Wendis was actually located in the middle of Skermann's coastline.

This meant that Wendis was the furthest away from the other countries across Bullard Bay, and that definitely explained the lack of issues in their economy and safety.

However, this would not last long. The situation at hand was already tense enough, and Wilbur actually planned to take direct action.

Upon second thought, Wendis was just a small town in Skermann. It could be said that the town hardly affected Skermann at all.

There were far more refugees in Skermann than it could handle, so it had to have been receiving some kind of support for it to have lasted this long.

This source of support was controlling Skermann, as well as the wars across Bullard Bay.

The thought made Wilbur calm himself down. He knew that he could not act on this too rashly, and thus continued beach combing until his agreement with the innkeeper was up.

Wilbur had decided to leave Wendis temporarily. He had built a pretty good relationship with the innkeeper, who sighed upon learning of his imminent departure. "I'd have gone back to my hometown long ago if I were you. However, I can't bear to leave my inn behind. The war's coming, young man. It's time you head back home too."

"The war's coming? What do you mean by that?"

"There haven't been any mirages in Wendis for over a month now. Mirages have always been a symbol of luck, but now some people say that they will never appear anymore. Legend has it that once the mirages disappear, Skermann will be struck with war."
