371 Traitor

Pettus became quite solemn, if not grave.

"Where did you learn that name?"

Seeing Pettus's change of expression, all three visitors knew that something might be wrong with that name.

Roland was about to speak the truth, but Cage said first, "I overheard it from some mercenaries in a tavern in Winterwind. I'm rather curious."

Staring at Cage, Pettus smiled and said, "That's impossible. The regular mercenaries are too illiterate to even spell 'elf.' How can they know anything as mysterious as 'Arcane Windrunner'?"

"So you do know it?" Cage looked at him.

Pettus nodded and put his cup down. He tapped the table more and more heavily, and the tension was building too.

Eventually, Pettus stopped his movement. He stared at Cage and tried to speak as calmly as possible. "You haven't answered my question yet. Where exactly did you learn that name?"

Frowning, Roland was about to talk again.
