Capítulo 102: 102: Looking for a house

Val surveyed the bustling street of the lower city. Finding no sign of Alfred's enemy, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, he continued to speak,

"But we have to keep our friendship a secret from Marshall. I don't want unnecessary trouble."

"Don't worry," Alfred said, waving a dismissive hand, his face mirroring a confident grin, "I'll make sure Marshall doesn't get wind of it."

"And how exactly will you do that?" Val asked, an amused twinkle evident in his eyes.

"I have my ways," Alfred winked, his grin widening.

In Eliana's mind, she mused that Alfred seemed to know a lot about the Northern Frontier, potentially more than they did. Maybe she could glean some answers to her questions from him.

"What else do you know about the lower city?" She asked, her gaze curious.
