Chapter 168: Spring of the Knights (3)
How could anyone trust the words of a street rat?
If someone asked him that, Ihan would answer—
That brat’s guts and confidence were proof enough.
...Well.
‘His heartbeat is steady too.’
Not to mention, his lie-detection ability probably made up 80% of his trust in the kid.
And—
“Ah, I-I know this because I once overheard a drunk merchant talking about it. He used to trade with the Magic Tower.”
The boy even revealed his source, perhaps fearing he wouldn’t be believed.
His legs were trembling as if he were scared, but his eyes remained steady—like someone who couldn’t afford to miss this one chance.
Ihan asked the boy—Patrick—
“Kid, are you sure about this? Not asking for money, but a deal like this?”
