Chapter 229: Do You Believe Me?

Only a day had passed since Alex and Rina had joined us, and we were already busy with preparations.

Asher and I had come to Baile Chailce. Well, Asher had gone there, I was waiting for him to return while exploring some old ruins we hadn't had the chance to check out before.

Despite my calm outer appearance, I was quite worried. As far as we knew, the Divines didn't know much about Asher, at least not more than they knew about Rina, Alex, Lucius, or Mona. There was no reason to think they'd try to harm him in any way, but that didn't really help my anxiousness much.

A faint clicking noise caught my attention. I pushed my thoughts and worries to the back of my mind and tightened my grasp around the hilt of my sword. I knew these ruins were occupied by creatures – that's why I was here for in the first place.
