What Comes After (Ch.302)

  "What is it that comes after?" Neveah asked warily, her right hand inching closer to her dagger which she had secured back to its sheath at her waist.

Somehow, Neveah could sense Lord Skiren's countenance was different, there was something odd about his tone and the look in his eyes.

His words were also strange, Neveah had arrived at the heart of the Ever-burn cave and now he claimed the trial was only about to begin?

Then all Neveah had just endured were what exactly? Neveah could not understand it.

Neveah still had not learnt to trust, it was one thing Neveah did not think she even wanted to learn.

The only reason Neveah had survived up till this moment was because she knew to be wary of everyone and everything.

And the only reason she had once faced death was because she made the grave mistake of turning her back to someone.
