Chapitre 167: Was It True? Or Was It All a Lie?

On King's Lane.

Link saw through the transparent crystal window of the carriage that it was Eliard and Elena inside. Link sighed quietly. He knew that Elena would be using this trick on him.

Eliard was Link's best friend. Elena must've known that Link would never do anything to put Eliard in harm's way. Link was secretly impressed at how cunning Elena had been by using Eliard as a hostage.

By then, Eliard had also noticed Link as well; he was not aware of the real situation yet and was curious about Link's actions.

"Link," he called out as he opened the carriage window, "what are you doing here?"

Link's eyes never left Elena. At that time, she was leaning closely against Eliard's chest and her face looked very pale—she seemed to be in pain, but Link knew that it was just a ruse. He noticed that Elena had rested her hand on Eliard's heart all this time, never moving it away even for just an inch.
