Oh wow. This arc is going to be more action-oriented? I wonder if she's finally going to notice that he's not a eunuch. The standard trope would be him getting injured in the escape and her nursing him back to health, noticing his lack of a... lack, so to speak.
I wonder if this chapter/arc is a reference to “The Most Dangerous Game”. For those that don’t know the short story, it’s basically about a bunch of rich folks getting bored of hunting normal game and deciding to go for something smarter and able to fight back, AKA other humans. If my assumption is correct then the building up makes a lot of sense
