章 1019: Patience

"How was it? Did you take a good look?" Just as Fors left the street where Viscount Stratford's mansion was, she saw Xio walk out with a down and vacant expression.

Xio nodded hesitantly.

"I did…"

Having said that, she seemed to come to her senses and said in shock, "I know her—no, him!"

"Him?" Fors was confused.

Xio habitually observed her surroundings before saying, "He's Sherman! The Sherman I told you about!

"H-he actually became a woman!"

Fors was stunned as she subconsciously asked, "Were you mistaken?

"Could she be Sherman's sister?"

Xio firmly shook her head.

"No, she admitted it herself and even told me not to disturb her. She wants to bid farewell to her past!

"But… how did he become a woman…"

Fors's eyes darted around as she suddenly recalled something. She said in thought, "It's not impossible either… There's a Beyonder pathway that allows a man to become a woman at a certain stage."
