Chapter 56: Compressing Kill Count? - Meeting Mundungus Again!
Evening,
November 4
"You think he will come back?" Kai asked.
"Yes."
"How?" Kai wasn’t so sure about it. He had known people like Mundungus Fletcher, wizard or not. He could scarcely believe that the wizard would return with no trouble, but Petyr seemed to be sure about it.
"Like I always have," Petyr said, playing with his bowler hat. "I have a knack for sniffing people who need immediate help."
"Like now?" Kai asked, raising an eyebrow.
Petyr nodded.
Sigh! Kai let out a breath. He didn’t know how, but Petyr had somehow convinced the innkeeper to let them stay one more night by paying the rest of their allowance. Kai didn’t mind it the loss of money. The thing that had been troubling him was the Kill Count.
After coming back to the room in the morning, Kai had commanded Petyr to sit and had forbidden him to get up before coming up with a solution. So there the Character was, his ass glued to the chair, his butt sweaty, and his forehead full of creases.
The afternoon had come and gone, yet neither Kai nor his counselor had found a solution.
