Chapter 285: Co-Conspirator

Lucius tracked through the streets of Stark Academy with Desmond hot on his trail. Despite the differences in speed and stamina, he was surprised that the human was able to keep up so well with him.

The scent of the elf known as Silis was still strong and easy to follow, yet there was a second, slightly familiar scent on the wind as well. Whoever it was that Silis was working with was somewhere within the academy, though Lucius was struggling to pinpoint where they might be at the moment. Since the other individual was a lost cause, he redoubled his efforts to follow the elf traitor.

Silis was none the wiser about their presence as he twisted and turned through different alleyways to try and hide his route. His movements were that of an amateur, making it easy to guess which of the inns he was looking for. Desmond nodded at Lucius when he also predicted where the elf was going and went ahead to scout the area out.
