บท 482: Mysterious Woman [1]

Clank—

Closing the door behind me, I took a deep breath and slumped down on the nearest bed. 

"...I might not live long at this rate." 

I was thankfully able to dodge the bullet for now, but there was no guarantee things would remain that way. I had to prepare myself for the inevitable day Leon was going to learn about his true origins. 

Once that happened then... 

"Haa." 

I covered my face with both hands. 

"It'll be a horrible day." 

A day of sadness. 

'No, I can't think about such terrible things now.'

There were more pressing matters to focus on—like the current expedition. To be honest, I still didn't have much information about the whole affair. All I knew was that we'd be hosted by a certain Household and tasked with scouting the situation within Kasha.

Why did the trades stop? And what was happening there? Furthermore, why couldn't the Empires figure out what was going on?
