The duke’s visit (7)

After a moment of silence, I couldn't help asking, "What did they come here for, or did they not tell you?"

The green haired elder looked very hesitant this time.

It was as if she was debating on whether to tell me or not, but that wasn't strange since this was most likely a private matter for the elves.

Seeing this, I said, "If it's not something that you can tell me, then…"

She shook her head when she heard this before saying, "It's not that I can't tell you. It's just that I'm worried that you'll want to get yourself involved in this matter when you do hear the reason."

I couldn't help revealing a confused look when I heard this, but I didn't say anything as I waited for her to explain.

The green haired elder gave another sigh before saying, "They're here looking for Apollo. They were sent by his father."

I deeply knitted his brows when I heard this.

This was definitely the one answer that I didn't expect to hear.
