"I'm terribly sorry for what happened here," Madam said, suddenly changing her attitude.
The shock on her face turned into fear.
"I didn't know you were a token holder," she said, lowering her head as low as she could without actually falling to her knees.
"So this stone is actually important?" I muttered to myself, playing with the token. "I guess I should send the letter to the Madam that I helped back then," I added, a smile growing up on my lips.
"You really don't know what it is...?" Madam whispered as she glanced up at my face, still not daring to raise her head.
"I will have all the debt of your friend canceled. He will receive proper remuneration for helping one of my girls breakthrough," Madam uttered through her teeth, clearly unhappy about her own words.
I didn't bother to react to her words in any way or form. I simply stood in place, staring down at her lowered head while playing with the black token in my hand.
Okay guys, let's face it.
My chapters are getting longer and longer. From now on, I'm going back to stable 2 chapters a day with 3rd chapter being a happy welcome instead of a daily occurrence.
I think it will be better this way instead if I did my best to end all the chapters at the 1k words mark. Sorry for that and I really hope you won't mind. In the end, you will get the same amount of story, but instead of fillers that are only about finishing certain points or filling the gaps, you will get a proper story in every chapter.
A good deal I believe.
PS: I will still try to write 3 chaps a day, but I won't pressure myself about it anymore.
