บท 157: Mika's Predicament!

"Wow, this is very tragic news for the Elven Empire," Aegis began. "The Althaeon Pharmacy was well-known not only among elves but also among various races, thanks to their unique remedies.

The Hero Association was even planning to collaborate with them and open branches in other kingdoms." Aegis stated.

Mika shrugged. "Who cares, it doesn't concern us. There's no need to waste time watching the news."

"Well, I was friends with the wife of the previous owner," Aegis said.

"But they died in an accident. Of course, that's only what is told to the public. It's not hard to guess that they were assassinated by higher-ups in the company. They even had a young daughter who also died at the time.

This must be their retribution," Aegis spoke in a dramatic tone.

"...The lack of evidence allowed the killer to walk free without consequence, and people quickly moved on from the incident," She added with a shake of her head.
