Chapter 1108: Absorption Technique

Ning walked back with Sophie, taking in the setting sun to the west. That was the direction he had come from, according to the map. He wondered how far west he must've been for no boats to even bother going there.

"How did you meet boss?" Sophie asked out of nowhere.

"I came with Carlos to… uh… well, I escorted Carlos basically," Ning said. He wasn't sure how much of the information on crystal was free for him to give to random people in the gang.

"You escorted Carlos?" Sophie looked at him weirdly. "Aren't you weaker than him?"

"In Essence," Ning said.

"Hm, I did hear your fighting capabilities were quite good," the blue-haired girl said. "I wonder if you are as good as Band."

Ning gave a curious look. 'Wasn't that the guy I beat in swordsmanship today?' he thought. He decided to not answer Sophie at all.

They finally returned back to the house. "Find me tomorrow around noon. We will go together to get your sword sheath," she said.
