Chapter 458: The Long Lost Tale (Part X)

Inside the house, while Abi was treating Zeres' wound, Alex was staring at Abigail with curiosity and wonder in his eyes.

"Abigail…" he called to get her attention. "May I ask you something?"

"Hmm? Of course."

Alex hesitated. "Are you really just… just a human?"

Zeres looked up at Alex at his question while Abi paused, as if she was thinking about how to respond.

"I mean… I know you are the Keeper of the black dragon but…" Alex tried to explain but he couldn't continue what he wanted to say because he was worried that his words might hurt her.

But Abigail just smiled and her kind eyes told him she didn't mind his words.

"Are you talking about the mist?" she asked and Alex nodded.

Zeres sat up in his chair, suddenly alert and paying close attention. He was just as equally curious as Alex was about it.
