บท 1659: Earl Visand

Ning frowned, seeing the man look at him and Shara directly as he asked that question. Before he could say anything in return, the old woman spoke.

"People are coming to meet me?" she asked.

"Yes!" the man said. "They are describing you as well as these two kids. I don't know what they are doing, but they are—"

Ning stood up, listening no more. He walked over to the other room and brought out his spear, still wrapped in a rag cloth. "Shara, hide in this room. I'll go see if they're here for us or not."

"No, I will go out," Shara said. "I'll help you."

"You cannot," Ning said. "You can't do much to help me. You don't even have any training to use your powers properly."

"But I…" Shara couldn't think of what to say. It was true that she was weak, and it was true that she couldn't help Ning much should a problem arise in the next few minutes.

"Alright, I'll stay in here," she said in the end.
