Bab 37: 37 - The Truth

Wolf and Pax found both Ren and Fang in a strange mood when they came back.

"What happened to you two?" Wolf asked curiously. "Didn't you get the blessings of the goddess?"

"We did," Ren replied absently. He was more concerned about the mysterious fortune teller and how he could possibly have known that Ren had come from another world. To be honest, a part of Ren still wanted to return to his original world, but Fang was right next to him, so he couldn't say that. Ren had been acutely aware of how frightened Fang had been when the old fortune teller had asked the question. If he had replied in the affirmative, he was afraid of the repercussions his answer would have wreaked on Fang.
