Chapter 281.2
It was a fairly small room, barely having enough space for a table for four to fit inside. Kasser, who was the only occupant of the table, shifted his gaze to the window. There were no curtains, just the opaque glass obstructing the outside view completely. Much to his dissatisfaction.
Kasser imagined the view beyond the window in silence. A club called ‘Day and Night’ would be standing cater-cornered across from where he was now. The five-story building, somewhat longer in length than height, stood out conspicuously in downtown Holy City.
His wife would be inside the club by now. Truthfully speaking, he wasn’t very pleased when he heard about the venue of the tea party she was attending today.
Being known as a congenial place for those seeking licentious pleasure to congregate at, sporadic incidents broke out frequently in the club. And despite Eugene being in safe hands with Lady Arse around, he was still worried that she might have her delicate feelings hurt by unpleasant encounters.
In fact, Kasser has heard that her imposter had made an enemy of her surroundings while she inhabited the body. Therefore, there was a high chance that Eugene might be attacked by those who still held grudges with past events she doesn’t even know of. And even should that happen, Eugene was too considerate to let it show.
‘Perhaps I should have asked her to take Kid with her.’
He found himself growing restless when she wasn’t in his sight. And despite his reasonable mind telling him that there’s no way he could force her to stay by his side all day, he wouldn’t hesitate to do so if he could.
Knock, knock.
Upon hearing someone tapping at the door, Kasser straightened up in his seat. Through the opened door came a man in black robe which covered him from head to toe. Without a hint of hesitation, the man made himself comfortable to a seat across from the king before pulling back the hood of his robe.
