This is just like the Skin Takers.
The creed of the Skin Takers is to flay living creatures and take their skins.
'I'll capture them alive.'
'But not now...'
This was just one of the locations Lu Luwei had discovered.
I needed to check the other locations first.
I didn't want to catch one and tip off the rest.
That would just give the others a chance to escape.
"Lu Luwei."
"Yes?"
"Keep an eye on the entire city. Watch for anyone trying to flee. If you see someone leaving, pay close attention to them."
"Specifically, look for scars that resemble seams on their skin, especially on their backs or in similar areas."
"Oh..."
'Pay close attention?'
Lu Luwei's Perception swept across the entirety of Ailuotis.
In a country this large, people were coming and going at all hours, of course.
Lu Luwei's Perception scanned over every single person leaving the city walls.
'Good thing I'm a Level 5 Observer.'
'Otherwise, who would have the energy to watch so many people at once?'
