Chapter 48: Dangerous Dissolution
Lucien walked out of the dark room with Gayanna leading him. He was both shocked and terrified, but none of the Moonshade Pact elves said anything.
There was a sudden shift to everything that made it seem so unbelievable—a pact that had existed since the foundation of the world was just suddenly shattered.
All because of the question he asked.
However, what had also happened—Lucien felt it was too peaceful to be true. He suspected that this would most likely be the most peaceful it would be, in fact. He couldn’t help but get a strange and chilling premonition that he just subscribed to something called premium danger.
However, there was one thing that Lucien did not understand.
Gayanna. Valdris had introduced her as his daughter. So she wasn’t? Then who was she? And why was she helping him?
He was sure they were definitely going to come for her. Their fear of her just now was enough. They were going to carefully plan, and they were going to come for her. The eyes that Lucien saw in that room were more than capable of doing so.
He might not have been able to accurately judge how strong they were because of how weak he was, but their eyes were more than enough to make him tremble. The resolve in them didn’t look like that of people who knew how to surrender.
’I mean... it took a god to seal them to stop.’
Lucien felt a bitter taste in his mouth. He glanced at Gayanna’s back and looked down, a bit dejected.
’If they come after me... my peaceful gaming life is so over.’
