Chapter 235: Cause and Effect

Krish and Marie exited the Raynor Family's mansion without any commotion; their detour through it made less of a ripple than a speck of dust falling upon a still-water surface. 

While they walked past the entrance gate and turned the corner, Marie could barely take her eyes off of the pristine new ceramic canister in her hands - which she learned was called a Contract Seal - and her Master. As her eyes darted periodically between the static seal in her grasp and Krish's hobbling form, her expression started to become unreadable.

At this point, Krish could easily ascertain that his precious Disciple's mind was probably working in overdrive trying to come up with outrageous theories and explanations of everything she had observed back in the Raynor Mansion. Rather than leaving the girl to her devices, Krish decided that it was best to intervene and entertain her queries.
