Chapter 71 – What Then?
Kyle seemed quite troubled.
'I spent like two to three weeks underground. How am I going to explain my absence to Samson?'
"Foolish mortal, I can see that secular matters are troubling you. You will learn with time," Theodor spoke.
"Hey, about that," Kyle said. "What am I supposed to tell my friends and colleagues? I was just mining on a random hill, and now I've been missing for like three weeks or so."
"Friends are a sign of weakness!" Theodor shouted. "A true Transcendent rules alone!"
"Does Hieronymus have friends?" Kyle asked.
"He says he does, but I don't believe him," Theodor spoke with annoyance.
"So, what am I going to say to them?" Kyle asked.
"To whom?"
Kyle got a bit annoyed and rephrased the question.
"You must under no circumstances tell anyone about what happened!" Theodor thundered.
