In the meantime, while everyone was observing Chad's appearance, Vale couldn't help but look at Maya's reaction.
As expected, although she had hidden it well with her veil, he could still notice a change in her expression. She was certainly shocked by Chad's sudden appearance.
Nonetheless, because she was on a mission and, for some reason, she was hiding her identity, she didn't break her character and acted as if she didn't recognize Chad.
After a few moments, Vale introduced Chad.
"This is Chad, my friend and a disciple of a True Dragon. He is also a part of the Merchant Organization…" Vale said as he looked at Lady Eve of the Scarlet Serpent Brotherhood.
He implied that Lady Eve would have to meet Chad later to discuss the details of their cooperation for the acquisition of Utara's Serpent Herb.
Lady Eve gently nodded at this as she understood his gesture.
