Chapter 243: Risk
"I didn’t expect to see her this soon." Kyle muttered, unsure how to react to lumia’s presence.
He was grateful to her saving his life and all that, which was one of the reasons he accepted the quest to save her. But that was the thing, he’d failed the quest.
The power difference between him and evil Lynn was separated by a wide margin. The wicked beauty on another level of power, far surpassing even her own father.
’Where does he breed them.’ Kyle joked, slightly shaking his head.
As a king he was technically the law himself, so he wasn’t bound to any confinements like the rest of the people here. But being a ruthless and cold killer, Kyle has never for once caught Troy converse romantically with any woman.
Strictly platonic and business, which made him question the maid from earlier, and her chef mother’s claims.
[Who knows, he was probably a busy fellow spreading his net in his younger days. For insurance purposes of course.] Snow added with a straight tone, but Kyle could sense the flattering hidden in it.
’Yeah, insurance purposes.’ Kyle repeated in his head dropping the topic. What Troy did in his past wasn’t his concern, only the present which was relative to him.
"Mhm." A faint grunt reached his ears, looking Lumia was struggling unlike Troy. She’d successfully channeled her raw energy out, but maintaining it was the real hiccup. Requiring deep concentration, which she failed to adapt to. And he couldn’t blame her, after all she’d been through.
"She’s probably some years younger than Yua." A weak smile flashed across Kyle’s face, quickly disappearing as it came.
’Thud! Thud!’
The heavy rainfall has now increased, adamant in achieving it’s goal. Making the atmosphere gloomy, covered with thick dense clouds of blue fogs. The various torch stamps and mana stones provided light in the castle.
