Chapter 378 - 22: Elopement (3)
In the adventurer’s guild underground, in the adventurer hall staff office, the staff members were all hiding behind their desks, trembling. They looked fearfully at the slightly ajar door of Bi’an the Sixth’s office.
In the office, Bi’an the Sixth was also trembling because standing in front of him were two Liches, Aikleion and Simon.
"We don’t want to disturb you, but we have a question that we must ask. It is said that only you know the correct answer," Simon said softly, a wisp of white smoke escaping from between his teeth and slowly dissipating. Coupled with the two soul fires burning in his eye sockets, his appearance was indescribably terrifying.
Maybe this was not such a big deal in the south, but in the north, especially further north in the Gustav Empire, like the Lunbak Empire, people’s fear of Liches had not diminished since the Battle of Salted Fish Port. At least, Bi’an the Sixth was scared out of his wits, his teeth chattering uncontrollably.
"It seems you scared him," Aikleion, standing beside, remarked, "Maybe you should put on your mask and ask again."
"Uh, alright..." Simon silently closed the visor on his knight’s helmet and then asked again, "We have a question that we would like to ask. It is said that only you know the correct answer. Once we get the answer, we will leave immediately and not harm anyone, is that alright?"
Bi’an the Sixth’s teeth continued to chatter wildly. As Simon closed his visor, his gaze had already shifted to Aikleion, who had not yet closed his visor.
Helplessly, Aikleion had no choice but to close his visor as well.
Then, the two Liches continued to stare at Bi’an the Sixth.
Hesitating, Bi’an the Sixth carefully nodded and replied, "Ask."
