Kapitel 1038: Setting Out(2)

"What is it? Your wish is finally going to come true. Is there any problem? You can tell me, Mark. The Godking always stands by his oaths. You helped him, so we are indebted to you."

Her gentle words made Mark look up and smile. He was supposed to be a young man, and from the stories she had heard, he had been a carefree person until Daneel had found him. From then on, all the twists and turns that had happened on the continent had not been kind to him. He looked much older than his age, and even his eyes were that of someone who had gone through a lot.

She could guess that the tension and stress he must have felt due to the fact that the one who held his secret was being hunted must definitely have been no joke. And of course, it must have returned during the fight against the Church.

Weaker men might even have gone insane, but Mark had stayed strong, and now, it was time to cash in on the bet he had made when he had decided to share his secret.
