Wow, the comments are too extreme. Maythan may be naive but that because he trusted Ian. I thought Ian was a bit mischievous but I did not anticipate he was evil. Can't blame Maythan for not knowing. Even if he got a warning from the prince, the warning was so vague. Maythan could have been more careful, but how? Ian didn't show any outward hostility or gave out clues to it. At least our MC will learn from this mistake and try to solve it.
