Chapitre 617: Soft bargain

Learning that Mister Scofield was alive sent Uriel into an inner turmoil and he fell silent for an entire minute without being able to take his eyes from the brightly lit candle while he pondered the implications of Soulfire's words.

He was correct, information was truly more valuable than credits, but he questioned himself as to why the stupidly handsome man decided to give him the information he wanted without asking anything in return.

"Thanks for telling me this, I truly appreciate it. But now that you gave me this piece of information there's really no need for us to help you in any way and the only reason I would go back to the city is to have a chat with him and confirm he's alright."

"Huh? This isn't the information I promised as payment. I just showed this candle to let you know your friend is alright." Soulfire looked at Uriel as if distrust was out of character from Uriel when it was actually his true nature.
