Chapter 2858: Nidhogg’s Nest (Part 4)

<"Do you mind switching to the Great Mother's language? I don't want to make my guests feel uncomfortable.">

"Gladly. Who do I have the pleasure to meet?" The older Nidhogg asked.

"Grandfather, these are Tista Verhen, my girlfriend…" Tista's appearance and name left Bodya's old man indifferent, but her family name hit a nerve. 

His body stiffened and his eyes went cold for just a moment, but long enough for anybody to notice. Except for Tista, who was too tense, and Bodya, who was too happy about the reunion.

He listed all of his guests, always specifying their relationship with Tista. The more the Verhen name echoed through the cave, the less warmth remained in the eyes of the older Nidhogg.

"Guys, this is my grandfather, Vothal the Nidhogg. He took care of me after my parents died and he taught me everything I know about magic."
