Bab 170: The mysterious Insignia

"So, I presume that you're not going to join me inside the main library?"

Xander and Brom were closing into the front gate of the capital, while Xander trying to start a conversation. Brom seems in his own world thinking about something else. Before they reached the gate, Xander tried to ask the mage once again.

"I am sorry, but you need to go alone. I… have some urgent matter on my own."

Brom gave him the answer, and before Xander said anything, he galloped away from Xander, leaving him with so many questions.

"Well, guess he was in a hurry." Muttered Xander, while he get off his horse and meet with the guard.

"Hey, aren't you the same person who was here six hours ago?" Asked the guard to Xander.

Xander forgot. The shift rotation doesn't even change, and he is already back in the capital. "So much for a discreet thing." He whispered, curses to himself, and tried to smile at the guard, "I forgot something inside err… my barrack."
