Chapitre 509: Flavia's failure

"What-what about us?" Maia asked through a whisper, luckily, the manor was empty and the empty study helped sound carry easily. Else her question wouldn't even have been heard.

"I was thinking of having you continue to care for the other house. I didn't expect to receive a manor when buying it and don't really know what to do with either. Please, keep it in good condition for me."

"Of course!" Maia replied with force Eldrian didn't know she had. 

He smiled and nodded before turning his eyes to the book. Starting from the front, Eldrian slowly sunk deep into reading. 

...

The rest of the day passed quickly as Eldrian lost himself in the book, impressed by the theories that the author had proposed and also what he had been able to determine himself.
