Capítulo 86: Gathering (2)

This was the scene that Kianna and Oren were stumbled into when they arrived in their Guild Leader's room, which had become their meeting point. 

"Oh, you're here." Unusually, it was Rise who first greeted them; both were a bit taken aback. 

Rise always gave off this distant feeling to them, as though he was not interested in getting to know them. Their relationship was civil at best. 

"Uh, hello." Kianna forced a smile; she admitted that Rise frightened her. This was not only from the rumors, but he always exuded an unapproachable vibe. 

She also felt that Rise seemed to not like them much compared to how he treated Hayes or Adelline. So, being greeted first like this surprised her. 

Oren also felt the same way, and even if he was a man of few words, he still managed to utter a short hello. 

They sat across the three, looking so stiff for some reason. Probably because Rise's gaze was still fixated on the both of them.
