Bab 135: Tracing

""Hello, sir,"" greeted the shop owner kindly, Leon and Triss while Valeria chose to just nod.

However, their attention was swiftly diverted from the chubby shop owner standing behind a wooden table laden with various jars, much like the rest of the shop. Given its nature as an herb shop, the presence of jars filled with all kinds of herbs was only natural.

Nevertheless, curiosity still sparkled in their eyes as they scrutinized each jar, a sight that shop owners appreciated.

"How may I help you, young si—" He cut his words abruptly after a thorough examination of Valeria's attire, "Young masters," his smile intensified, reflecting the realization from his observation.

"We wanted to ask you a few things about Elena Lumius."

The moment Leon stated their purpose for being there, an evident disdain marred the owner's face. Even a deep inhale echoed in their ears, then, in a calm manner akin to before, he opened his lips.
