"The reason I wanted you nobles to come here today is exactly because of this."
Chester's deep voice echoed throughout the meeting hall.
His sharp gaze swept across every person seated around the table.
"I want all of you to focus on your respective regions. Increase surveillance and investigations. Look into any newly formed organizations, any suspicious groups, any unusual activities in the underworld, and any hidden powers that may be growing in the shadows."
His expression grew stern.
"Anything suspicious. No matter how insignificant it may seem. I want reports on it."
The room remained silent as everyone listened carefully.
"Also..."
Chester folded his hands on the table.
"From this moment onward, remain cautious."
Every noble and high-ranking hero present understood the seriousness behind those words.
One by one, they nodded.
Even the usually relaxed heroes had become noticeably serious.
Near the corner of the table sat Morgana Celestine.
