Kapitel 195: Quid Pro Quo

Both of them stood up when they saw the excited Bard.

Bard hugged Roland upon his arrival, which slightly surprised Antis.

Bard and Antis were both descendants of grand nobles in the capital. Bard's family focused on magic, and Antis's family were famous for their swordsmen. They were also in charge of the city guards.

Both of them were related to the royal family. Antis's family was closer to the royal family than Bard's was. So, they were actually related too, although only distantly.

Antis knew that his relative was very proud. After all, the man was a Mage and a noble; he had every reason to be proud. He had often been condescending to Antis, yet he was willing to hug an outsider.

It was quite interesting.

"Bard, he's all yours. I'll resume my patrol." Antis patted Bard's shoulder. "Drop by if you have time."

"Thank you. Please send my best to my uncle."

Antis nodded and looked at Roland again before he left the room.
