Thus, he concluded that there was a secret underground basement built beneath the castle with many people imprisoned there.

However, he could not be sure about the identity of the people imprisoned.

He carefully scanned the castle’s surroundings to find the entrance to the underground basement.

Despite looking for a long time, he could not find the entrance.

There were many sounds entering his ears.
