บท 114: Appearances can be deceptive

Just a minute after Jake, Lu Yifeng and Kyle, who hadn't said a word for a while, left the cantina, Lu Yan suddenly straightened up, leaving the bench and table on which she was faking her blackout.

With a completely different expression and under Miya's stunned gaze, who could barely move, the young woman walked with a relaxed step towards Lutex, whose eyes showed nothing but terror. But it wasn't her he was looking at.

Ignoring the direction of his gaze, Lu Yan approached him with the feline gait of a cheetah approaching its dying prey. Throughout the action, Miya contemplated the young woman's behavior, unable to decide how to react.

Once in front of Lutex, whose consciousness was beginning to blur, Lu Yan took the chubby and sweaty face of the dying warrior in her hands. For a brief moment, she seemed to show a brief surge of compassion and the candor that characterized her, then the next second her face changed radically.
