Chapter 172: Elise's Confusion

So it happened that on this fateful night, one of the gods found someone like them and beheld Elise. It wasn't often that this person moved, but when it happened that something caught his eye, he moved.

Elise's eyes widened and she stared at him. "You… you…"

The man couldn't help but smile slightly at her. There was something about this woman that was strangely comforting to him. "Yes, me?" 

"You burned everything," Elise spoke in a choked voice. She looked at the man in horror, trying to make sense of the situation.

The handsome man nodded and replied casually, "That's right. We can't have any evidence left for this situation. It would be tricky if this would appear in the news, you see? Humans tend to panic easily at the death of one. Especially death that they couldn't explain."
