章 66: Several Problems with the Guardian

Matthew had his usual smile on his face. He looked relaxed, and it was an expression that Kael didn't like.

"I'm just... curious... why exactly are you on this mission, Kael?"

Kael did not change his posture or expression. He only sighed slightly. Looking into Matthew's eyes, he said a single sentence.

"Same reason as you, maybe? How do you like my answer?"

Matthew waited in silence for a while, his expression the same... unchanging. Only then did he slowly take a single step towards Kael. The sound of his footsteps echoed down the corridor, and he even looked a little intimidating in his upright posture.

But Kael didn't move.

When Matthew was right in front of him, he inevitably felt a little nervous. But he was good at keeping it all under control.

"Are you really sure you know why I'm on this mission?"

And at Matthew's words, Kael paused. His expression finally showed a hint of change.
