Chapter 138: Starry Sky
"Hey, you there. You're Ayako from the Fist District, right? It's only been a few days, how'd you turn into such a coward!"
The Licai Main Hall was bustling, but a woman's voice still managed to pierce the noise, making Gu He's heart skip a beat.
He saw that Lorna had nearly run out of patience. Her shout made Elizabeth snap her head around to look.
Elizabeth had been about to continue to the next lesson, but her brow furrowed slightly. "Who is that..."

"Miss Elizabeth, that person is Lorna Ludd. She's here for me," Ayako said, standing up. "When I was an assassin in the Fist District, I took a job working with others to assassinate her. We failed, and now she's come for revenge."
"Ayako, you should have told me about this sooner," Elizabeth murmured. "You'll have to explain this to me in detail later."
"I'm sorry." Ayako gave a formal bow. "I've caused trouble for you."
