Chapter 3224 The Wealthy Merchants Enter Montiria
- That night, Mortimer led a coalition of wealthy merchants into Montiria. While the merchants were focused on acquiring Montirian Ducats, Mortimer had a separate mission given to him by Matthew—to locate the higher-ups of the Gloam Division and "clear the court."
- The Gloam Division's reputation for corruption and brutality had long since spread beyond Montiria's borders. Additionally, Matthew's business in Montiria, a pharmacy poised to open, had been indefinitely restricted. Delmont had even called Matthew to inform him that Thorneville had been surrounded by the Gloam Division, with electricity and water cut off.
- Matthew had attempted to enter Montiria himself, but his photos were plastered across the border, and he was subjected to full-body searches at every checkpoint. The Gloam Division's security was incredibly tight, making entry nearly impossible. Even when Mortimer brought the wealthy merchants into Montiria, they had to undergo blood tests and other examinations before being allowed in.
