Chapter 416
Jorick opened the door to reveal Etsuko and an uncomfortable Oren.
The pair stepped inside and Katelina bit back her surprise. Etsuko was dressed in a plum colored kimono with her hair in its usual updo. It was a far cry from the woman Oren had half carried to the hotel; her hair loose around her shoulders and her Kimono tied on sloppily.
She stepped forward, holding two small gift bags, and bowed. "Greetings Jorick-sama and Katelina-san. I hope you are well."
Jorick made a non-committal noise and Katelina tried not to stare at the tiny, pointed teeth that flashed when Etsuko spoke.
"Yeah, we're fine. How are you?"
"I am well, thank you." She moved in front of them, bowed even lower and held the gift bags out. "I must humbly thank Jorick-sama and Katelina-san for all that they did for me while I was ill. Please accept these humble tokens of my appreciation. They are not much. The gift shop did not have a large selection."
