Chapter 242: A Face I Used To Know
Cassandra watched as Sir Lumin-no... He... he wasn’t Lumin. He was Amaniel, her manager at Knowledge Emporium.
He was the person she set out on this journey for. To find him, to see whether he was really dead or...
He’s alive...
Cassandra thought as Amaniel talked with the gate guards.
Strangely, they too were friendly with him, and even seemed to look at him with gratitude and awe. Just like the people at that inn or the frost-kin village.
He seemed to be welcomed well everywhere he went. His personality, too. It was similar to his previous self but also different. The core of their beings was the same, but his face, his voice, and his identity were all different now.
Strangely, even her appraisal skill couldn’t detect his true self.
Only just now, when she used the system to find Aman, did she confirm his identity. Even then, she still struggled to process it. But their next conversation confirmed everything.
If so, the relic or art he was using must be pretty high tier to be able to block her appraisal that easily.
But then again, since everything was logical till now, she didn’t suspect him at all. Well, who would?
There was a tiny bit of familiarity, but she didn’t anticipate that he would end up being the person she was searching for all along.
And maybe so, she couldn’t think properly now. Didn’t know what to say or do. How to interact with him from now on, after all that happened...
