章節 823: The System's Suspicion

Just as he wanted to take a step forward again, the system spoke.

("Okay, I'll tell you why the quest was issued,") The system finally caved in.

Gustav finally paused all initial thoughts of leaving and stood in place before responding, 'I'm listening,'

("I issued that quest because I sensed a strange and mystical presence from Endric,") The system revealed.

("I have never sensed such a presence before... It gives off a complex aura and hard to read energy... It also was definitely absent the last time you saw Endric before leaving camp almost a year back,") The system added. 

'What? You're sensing a strange presence from him and you didn't even think to let me know?' Gustav said with a tone of disappointment internally.

("I wanted to scan and properly investigate this presence before saying anything,") The system answered.

'And you have to do that while I'm staying away from him?' Gustav asked.
