章節 492: What Kind of Favor?

Haldir was sitting in his study when Theodir walked in and he was surprised to find Ileus there. The men didn't acknowledge his presence, but that was nothing new. He went to sit on the sofa and placed his feet on the cushioned ottoman in front of it. Tilting his head, at first Theodir gazed at the two men and measured them. Dislike and reluctance. That was their prime emotion. Tension found its way into his mind. He didn't know why Ileus was there but it didn't deter him from what he had to say and he was least bothered about interrupting their conversation. He had to say what he wanted to and be done with it. He had to go back to his kingdom with Ruyvn. "I have come here to talk about Ruvyn," Theodir said, coming straight to the point. 

"And I have also come to talk about him," said Ileus. 

Surprise flickered through Theodir, which was instantly replaced by anger. "In what capacity, Ileus?" he asked, ready for a verbal duel or for that matter any other dual.
