Chapter 55: Explosive Conclusion

On the other end of the sagging sofa, Dark Elf nodded slowly with her crimson eyes closed in what could only be described as her version of a laugh. She was impossibly still, but the slight twitch at the corner of her lips gave her away.

"It's just one of those things…"

Dark Elf tossed a popcorn kernel into her mouth.

Mist blinked, then nodded eagerly.
