Capítulo 86: Out of the dungeon

Freya tried to keep herself busy by tidying the house up. Elric told her that his mother would be coming that day or the next. The house didn't even need much work, as it was already very neat. She observed that the house was always neat. Perhaps the Duke was a clean freak.

She wondered why she hadn't seen any of his family before, nor had she heard him mention them. And why did he have such a big house when he lived alone? Perhaps it was because he was a Duke. For a Duke, he usually didn't have much visitors. Why? She expected to be seeing nobilities from far and wide visit him? Even commoners often visited the nobles for help. Something was off with him.

The duke stepped out for a bit, and she decided to walk around the house to see parts she had not seen before.

She climbed down the stairs, and walked into the hallways. There was another hallway connected at the right side of the main one, but it was dark. She turned curious, and decided to go that way.
