Kapitel 242: Crystal race

The girl who had been irritated with Lex saw the pensive look on his face and made another 'hmph' sound.

"Why are you pretending like this is the first time you're hearing of this? Even toddlers know this history," she said, for some reason feeling annoyed at him.

"My spirit was injured in an encounter with a Kraven while escaping from Gristol, so my memories are messed up," Lex gave the excuse that had become his standard explanation for everything the past few days without really thinking of it. His mind was currently occupied wondering how he was supposed to investigate the origin of the Kraven.

His absent minded words, however, shook the girl. In her mind, she suddenly connected his odd and absent behavior to damage to his spirit, and suddenly felt guilty for being so aggressive with him.

"I heard about Gristol, I'm sorry for your loss," she said, her voice suddenly soft and caring.
