323 Chapter 84

Maxi did not have to look back to know that Riftan was staring furiously after her fleeing figure. Straightening her back, she did her best to look dignified. Only after she was certain they were no longer visible did she glance over her shoulder. After carefully scanning the surroundings, she looked up and caught Kuahel staring down at her as though she were a strange creature.

Embarrassed, Maxi gave a small cough. "Y-You said… you had something to ask me about the basilisk farm?"

"Specifically, to confirm something about the tunnel connected to the farm."

Kuahel's reply was curt. Seeing that he had no intention of chastising her for her scandalous behavior, the tension eased from Maxi's shoulders.

"But I have already given you my report… that contains everything I know about the tunnel."

"I doubt that. There are always details that cannot be documented," he replied, briskly leading them to where the soldiers were dismantling the tents.
