Chương 105: A Discreet Reunion

I stepped outside the Palace of the Divines and let out a breath of relief. It was dusk – I was in there for almost the whole afternoon.

"Hey," A woman's voice sounded as I slowly walked along the street. "How did it go?" Victoria asked with worry in her voice.

"I have it." I said with a tired smile. "But it cost me."

"You're wounded." She said, glancing at the wounds on my neck and the bruises around my arms and wrists. "Come, let's go back to my shop – I have some healing elixirs there."

I chuckled. "I can heal myself, don't worry about it." Then I glanced at the busy streets. "But I'll gladly accept your invitation."

She forced a smile and led me through the busy streets. I could see how nervous she was. She relaxed only a little when we arrived at her shop.

"Where are the others?" I asked as we entered. Her butler, Thomas, quickly closed the shop as we headed upstairs.
