Disappointed

Sera was flabbergasted. She didn't understand what he said, but she knew he must be cursing something.

"Are you really not the guide from the Ancient Library of the Fairy Queen?" Nathan asked, a sense of desperation clearly being reflected on his face.

"Yes. I am Serafina Dialanta, the fallen saintess of the Holy Kingdom. I am not the guide." Sera tilted her head in confusion. "Did you help me because you thought I was the guide?"

"…" Nathan fell silent before confessing, "That was indeed a part of the reason."

Sera looked disappointed. At the same time, she understood that there was nothing free in this world. He offered his help because there was something for him in the first place.

Before she stormed off, he pinched the bridge of his nose. "I guess this is the end. You have completed your mission, and it's time for me to go back and search for the ancient library."
