章 1362: Tavern tales III

"You've returned quicker than I anticipated," the tavern keeper said with a smile, but the huntress was not exactly in the mood to play games.

"What's happening? Why was everyone looking at me like that?" she asked, ignoring the confused buffoon who seemed even more confused upon seeing her.

"Ah that. Well you see, shortly after you left, the most peculiar set of rumors started going about. One of them said that a wild huntress was seen carrying around the corpse of the crown prince across town, while another rumor said that there was a valiant warrior princess who carried the crown prince out of the jaws of death, saving him from a team of following assassins, and brought him to the city to get treated from his injuries. Both of them agree that the person being carried was the crown prince though."

Instead of asking the tavern keeper why he knew these rumors if he never left the Inn, the huntress looked towards the buffoon with bewilderment.
