Chapter 607: The End Of Mulligan 3

Eunid walked forward, his cane tapping softly on the stone floor as Nora followed closely behind him, her expression unreadable, yet her presence unmistakably gentle. She stayed by his side, offering silent support, but never once letting her gaze waver. 

Alfred's frown deepened, his eyes darting between Eunid and Nora. This was not supposed to happen. Eunid wasn't meant to arrive until long after he had left the temple, and yet here they were, ruining everything. 

Something was off. His gaze settled on the pair, suspicion gnawing at him.

"How… how did you find out?" Alfred demanded, his voice filled with disbelief and growing panic.

Eunid simply chuckled in response. With a calm wave of his hand, the nameless dwarf who had always been by Alfred's side stepped forward.
