Chapter 43: Return home and a surprise visit

As Mars looks at the information they obtained, "I think they let us obtain this information, don't you think this is strange?" Maia said concerned to Mars. "Yes, this was almost too easy." He said seriously. "I will discuss with the king's palace, good work to the both of you, here, here is your pay + a little extra on top, with it being a risky mission" He smiled at them both as he paid them, "Thank you sir." They bowed.

There is a moment of silence as Mars pours himself some wine to drink in their presence, being late in the day. 

  "I hear that the King is going on a journey and has specifically requested that you go on this journey with him, Maia." He smirked. 

"that's the first I have heard of it?" Maia said confused at the same time.
