Chapter 128: For True Love (2)
Even though Keter had suddenly vanished from the mansion in Eslow’s palace, the rest of the group remained focused on their respective tasks. Anis and Taragon were sparring with knights of Eslow in the training grounds, and Katherine was practicing forming and controlling mana spheres.
Myle, the group’s spiritual anchor, sat calmly on the terrace in plain sight, seemingly reading a book. His eyes were fixed on the pages, but the quiet, rhythmic shaking of his leg showed that he wasn’t focused on the book at all.
“Lord Myle?”
Myle flinched at the unexpected sensation on his shoulder. Katherine, who had touched his shoulder, also jumped in surprise.
“I’m sorry if I startled you. It’s just that you’ve been shaking your leg so much. I was getting worried.”
“I was shaking my leg?”
“You haven’t even turned the page in thirty minutes.”
“...”
Myle closed the book with a sigh.
Katherine could guess what was bothering him.
“It’s about Maste... about Lord Keter, right?”
