Chapter 869 - New Business in the Orphanage
Brulee stayed awfully quiet since they left Lloyds. It only spoke to Angor when they almost reached the surface.
“My master met someone who was selling a wild Demeter 60 years ago. She tried everything she could but still couldn’t find enough money. I think it was someone from the congress of City of Truth who bought it in the end. So… however did you afford that Demeter?
“The chief of Ashen Traders seemed fond of you. Heck, that guy wasn’t so polite when talking to my master. What’s going on?”
Angor was too focused on watching out for danger, so he only gave Brulee a simple answer. “I happen to have so many magic crystals on me. As for your second question, frankly speaking, I don’t know.”
Brulee would like to figure out how an apprentice had “so many magic crystals”, but it didn’t do so since Angor wouldn’t tell his secret to someone’s familiar pet.
They almost left the water without encountering anyone that blocked their path, which confused Angor for good.
Although he was glad that he didn’t have to waste time dealing with more stalkers.
The surface of the water was bathed by the bright orange light of dusk.
“I see. Can I ask some questions before we begin? Of course, you can say no if there’s anything you don’t want to tell.”
“Is that your price? Sure.” Angor nodded.
“Do you wish to study Dream Reading for yourself? Did you perhaps… comprehend Dream Walk already?”
