Chapter 613 - An Important Clue
Apparently, the simple concert could not continue without Fox.
Froggy was now cursing Yorkshire’s name furiously as if he wanted to go and kill Yorkshire in the next second.
“Stupid dum-dum! Stu-stupid! Why would the queen send that guy anyway? He’s only good at playing those strings but is otherwise useless!”
It was pretty rare to see Froggy speaking without his “aria style”, which meant he was REALLY annoyed right now.
The monster took several deep breaths and bowed to Angor. “Lord Shava, shall I continue my poem unaccompanied?”
Angor quickly shook his head. He was just glad that the performance was interrupted. “Maybe next time. Your music will not sound as touching without an instrument. Surely you want your song to be perfect, Mister Froggy?”
Froggy tilted his head. “You’re quite right, Lord Shava, for it is my responsibility to present a flawless show to you. Since we don’t have Fox with us… I’m afraid we must call it off.”
Disappointed, Froggy hopped off from the crates.
They knew that Angor wanted Hookdick dead as much as they did, but seeing their prey taken by Angor so easily was still not pleasant.
Angor looked at Shiliew next. It seemed Shiliew had something to say just now.
“I saw a strange creature taking Nausica and Gank away,” Shiliew said as she showed a grim look.
Angor grimaced. Finally, he learned something of use, that someone they didn’t know yet had joined the mess.
“How did this strange creature look?”
“It’s too dark for me to see.” Shiliew shook her head and said, “But it must be strong since it can carry Gank away so easily. Strong, and perhaps big. There’s something else. Before I fully went into sleep, I think I saw something yellow and shiny from it…”
Yellow and shiny? Angor closed his eyes and tried to summarize what he heard from Shiliew, Shan, and Filo.
Douglas opened a passageway to escape. Someone showed up to attack Hookdick. The music came and overwhelmed everyone…
Yellow light.
“Are you referring to strings? Golden, shining strings?”
