Chapter 491: Food thief
Just like everyone, the truth was something that was hard to swallow. Who would believe that someone who was already dead would wake up in another person’s body? That was unheard of. It was pure fantasy. Not that Fig wasn’t happy that Hera returned, albeit in Heaven’s body, it was just... crazy.
Unbelievable.
However, he was grateful that he found out the truth without anyone knowing. Fig was able to investigate on his own, observe the young madam from afar, and make a connection. Bear was the only fool in their group who would believe someone’s claims through a dish. Even Fig wouldn’t believe that, no matter how much he loved eating. But then again, Fig didn’t know everything that happened that led Bear to immediately believe Heaven was Hera.
Heaven wasn’t very careful. She had a lot of previous habits that she would do in this lifetime, complacent no one would find out.
[PRESENT TIME]
"You said you don’t want to tell us." Fig spun the pistols around his index, putting it down as Princess and Gray backed down. "So, I thought it is much better not to mention it."
The corner of his mouth curled up into a kind smile, eyes fixed on Heaven. "I’m just glad that you are back and that I can be with you even at arm’s length."
"Fig..." Heaven’s eyes softened after listening to Fig’s short yet precise summarization of what happened.
It almost concerned her that she revealed everything to Bear, not knowing there was another pair of ears who were listening. But if it was Fig, that was understandable. Fig was the best assassin there was in the Reapers. Therefore, he was the only person who could pull that stunt without alerting Heaven and Bear. If it was anybody else, they would’ve known for sure.
