บท 79: Chapter 79: The Gates Have Opened

"Hello, Edward. Can you understand me?"

Edward blinked his eyes a couple of times as he tilted his head from side to side as he stared at Van.

From the stray dogs that were lucky enough not to be eaten in the Relic Graveyard, this was an expression of curiosity, Van thought.

Van was about to say something else, but before he could do so, Edward opened his mouth.

"Yes… understand", he said.

"!!!", Victoria could not help but widen her eyes and looked at Albert, her face filled with excitement as she heard Edward make a grunting noise.

Van, however, could only squint his eyes. Although Edward was obviously intelligent. Even more intelligent than the cercopes that Ms. Elton had in her basement, he seemed to be able not to converse properly.

"...Do you know who that girl is?", Van said as he slowly pointed a finger towards Victoria.

"S… Sister", he muttered quickly without even turning his head.
