Mandy noticed that Gu Mengmeng was not at all surprised, and was even exchanging looks with Lea. She thought about it before asking, "Did you know about this already?"
Gu Mengmeng didn't deny it and just nodded. "Mmm, I already knew this."
Mandy exclaimed. "Of course. You are the Messenger of the Beast Deity, you must know everything."
Gu Mengmeng chuckled as she thought to herself. She was just the Messenger and not some half-deity. How could she know everything? It was just that after Lea revealed Maya's identity to her, many things suddenly became very clear and obvious.
But Gu Mengmeng didn't explain all that to Mandy. Sometimes, it was better to maintain a bit of mystery.
Mandy had just finished her bowl of meat when Ian arrived to fetch her back.
He placed a bag made of animal skin on the table. "Please take this as a gift in return for all the meals Mandy had shared with you here."
