Bab 180: Know Your Place... You Drifter

Northern stood silently for a couple of seconds; he was staring at Raven as she was at him too, keenly.

The most annoying thing to him was that he couldn't get a reading on what exactly she was playing at.

'I thought she was on my side?'

But he also had to understand that Raven was in the dark as much as everyone else was.

Perhaps, she truly thought that Northern had no ties to this monster and so wanted to end this interrogation in just one go.

'That's right... or she could be plotting something really sneaky which is getting on my nerves.'

While the latter thought seemed plausible, Northern didn't feel like that was the case.

He couldn't read her indeed, but he had a feeling like she was just honestly trying to end the interrogation.

Because... who really would have thought that a human had the ability to command such a terrifying monstrosity?
