章節 1180: Cold Logic

They ate in comfortable silence. Sunny knew that both Nephis and Cassie were tired and only had a little time to rest before Morgan would need them again, so he did not waste that time with idle conversations. 

It was not like he had a lot to say, anyway. 

Still, there was one question that he had to ask. 

Pushing the plate away, Sunny glanced at Nephis and lingered for a moment. 

"I was told that there might be some kind of duel instead of a battle. Do you think it's possible?"

She did not hurry with an answer. 

Neph cradled a cup of tea in her hands as she stared into the amber liquid. Eventually, she said:

"I don't know. It is… a kind of tradition. The Legacy Clans would not have survived if they resolved every conflict by spilling rivers of blood — there are actually not that many of us, after all. However, neither Valor nor Song are acting the way they used to. So it's hard to tell."
