Chapter 669 - A sob story
Silence reigned over the first floor of the seemingly deserted Outer Slums Inn. Following the masked skink man's words, the captain merely frowned but did not speak or respond in any matter at all.
There were no fluctuations in his expression even after a minute of tense silence have passed by, but from the look in his yellowish eyes, it was clear he was in deep thought. He was probably lamenting on the information he was reported by this unknown man, trying to guess the credibility based on the man's tone, posture, and actions.
Eventually, he sighed, as well as clicked his tongue in annoyance. His face once again turned cold and arrogant as his lips parted to speak.
"[Reptilian] That worm must have fled. Not sure why… Were you the one who called for us?" He asked after a moment of hesitation.
Aiden acted as if he had no idea what the Temple Guard Captain was talking about, he hurriedly shook his head whilst keeping his gaze plastered on the dusty floor.
