You Always Kept Your Promise To Me

After their mission ended, Nicole, Lyall, and Conall returned to the Flying Ship to report their findings.

They had captured a few of Godfrey's subordinates and managed to get answers from their tight lips with a little bit of effort from Lyall.

But when they heard Merric’s report about Ethan returning looking somewhat pale, they immediately thought that the young man and Hecate had fought against Godfrey without informing them.

Because of this, Nicole hurriedly went to see him to ask him what really happened.

But instead of meeting Ethan, he found Lilith standing guard on the door with her arms crossed over her chest.

“Master is resting,” Lilith said. “You can’t see him right now.”

“Tell me what happened,” Nicole replied. “Did you guys fight against Godfrey?”

“No,” Lilith answered. “They just talked.”

“They just talked?” Nicole frowned. “Then why did Merric say that he looked very pale.”
