Chapter 512: Honing one's skills

"...stupid master..."

The sword in the expensive scabbard at Zombie's waist vibrated and created a high-pitched noise that turned into words of complaint.

"I'm sorry, but it had to be done - you share memories with my Cranberry, right? You know that I had to leave Monty with Roan so that they will become friends and the secret quest could start the moment that the weakling prince will get the title of the avatar of greed."

Zombie smiled softly and patted the sword's crossguard but he could feel that she doesn't like it at all - way too mad at him.

"It's okay, don't forget that Monty is still my subject and I can summon it back in need - but I won't for now. I know that he would make you snacks all the time, I'll make sure to give you lots of them too, alright?"

He added in a calming voice.

"No...! I want only Monty's snacks!"

The sword scoffed sounding very upset and went quiet.
