Chapter 374: The Meeting
A faint smile appeared on Lilith’s face as she gave the two of them a thumbs-up.
"You can count on me to beat her up. Trust me, the only reason she caught me off guard earlier was because I... uhh... I wasn’t paying attention," Lilith added, a hint of confusion still lingering in her tone.
Even so, Zafira merely rolled her eyes at Lilith’s act, then turned toward Anubis.
"Why are you training me so much? I’m not saying that I don’t appreciate it, but the only reason I came here was to find out more about the Colorless Goddess," Zafira stated. "If you can’t help me, then I’ll just have to find another way."
Anubis shook her head. "I told you I can help you, and I’m working on it. I’ve heard about the Colorless Goddess multiple times, you could even say we’re great friends."
And yet... the only thing you’ve been doing for the past few days has been giving me chores! Zafira protested inwardly.
After all, Anubis had been mostly sleeping instead of doing anything, so Zafira had lost pretty much all hope.
If anything, she just wanted to go back home and fix some stuff in Celestara.
The travelers had been very lively, so it would be wise to exploit them for all the money they had. It wasn’t like they would run away from the city. If anything, they might even like it more.
"...?" Zafira tilted her head at her own thought process before setting it aside and glancing at Lilith.
"So what, are we supposed to just spar now?" Zafira asked.
Anubis nodded from the side. "Light sparring, just minor combat practice. No actual strong hits, understood?"
