Capítulo 247: Tough Nut To Crack

To my surprise, no one came near us as we headed north back to the manor. I did see a group of women around one corner, but when they got a look at my party, they sunk back into the shadows. This was kind of nice, but at the same time, kind of sad.

"I get what you meant back in the shop," I said to Breya after she linked arms with me, with Elfinia following very close behind us, almost to the point of hiding in our shadows.

"It is hard to have a conversation with someone when you know that most of the things that are said are either lies or half-truths," Breya said quietly as we walked, and I nodded.

"I understand that, but I really enjoy spending time with you, if that means anything," I said, and Breya leaned her head on my shoulder and smiled warmly.
