Chapitre 340: Parting From The Mercenaries

Lucius and Kiana soon rejoined the others at their small circle. Everyone was enjoying a warm meal courtesy of Finch and it put everyone in a relatively good mood.

"Oh, where did the two of you go?" Carnus asked. "Whispering to each other in the corner of the tent?"

"We were discussing some matters regarding our upcoming mission and checking on our supplies." Lucius replied evenly. "I hope that isn't any issue?"

"No. Not at all."

Carnus pursed his lips but couldn't say anything else. There was something about the way that Lucius carried himself that prevented the normally interrogative mercenary captain to pry any further.
