Chapitre 147: An Invitation

Rhode didn't put much thought into Marlene's peculiar behavior. He vaguely sensed that something wasn't quite right when she emphasized 'Lize' numerous times, but in the end, he thought that it was only because she and Lize didn't receive fair treatment in regards to the contract.

Frankly, it wasn't difficult for him to draft Marlene a contract. Rhode had already decided that if the Senia Family had no objections, he'd draft her a temporary contract without any qualms. The contract consisted of special rules that were different from the other mercenaries. There wouldn't be any deadline so Marlene could leave the mercenary group anytime she wished. In other words, the contract didn't bind her to the mandatory rules. Instead, it was just a way to console her.

However, Rhode didn't spend too much time dwelling on her contract because he had something more important to deal with — an invitation from Klautz.
