Chapter 897: ...Not Good

"Wait, what happened…? Why are we leaving already?"

"We need to find a cosmic piece, Miss Pepondosovich — I need to have a talk with Navi."

"So… the old lady wasn't who you were looking for?"

"No."

"Ack!"

"Why do you seem more affected than Master, Miss Pepondosovich?"

Riley and the others were now heading their way out of the castle. The looks that everyone was giving them, even more intense than when they came. After all, how could the knights and all the attendants not be curious about Riley, when the Lady of the House herself invited him into her private chambers?

What could the two of them have done during that time? Of course, they might be hanged by Lord Erikson for having such thoughts, but surely, he can't blame them for thinking of such things. Lady Irene is old, true — but she still had some vigor left in her.

But alas, no one would really know what happened as Riley had already stepped out of the castle.
