Chapter 135: Ellis's Misunderstanding

Northern was overwhelmed by embarrassment.

In that moment, he wished the ground would open up and swallow him whole.

People glanced their way, but ultimately, they were consumed by their own business.

With so much happening in this land, it would be concerning if some group had ample time to focus on others' affairs - not that such people didn't exist.

"Please get up," Northern requested firmly and sighed.

If he didn't respond, Ellis would likely remain in that awkward position.

The poor guy glanced at Northern's face before straightening his back.

For a couple of seconds, they stared at each other.

Then Northern spoke first, "If it's okay with you, can we have this conversation somewhere else? I'm not very comfortable here." He looked around and returned his eyes to Ellis.

"Right, of course."

Ellis quickly and roughly packed his things aside and stood upright before Northern, brimming with excitement.
