Northern stood aloof for some seconds, he craned his neck to stare at the sky a little bit.
Then as he brought his head down, he nodded.
"Yeah, I knew this was a stupid idea. What was I doing believing the nonsense you spoke of?"
He rolled the map and tucked it into his bag. Then gave Raven a pitiful look.
"Good luck in your future endeavors, young lady. Whether it is to kill a Sage or steal from one, I don't care. You are just insane, that's what you are."
A barely visible frown formed on Raven's face, almost a contortion of puzzlement.
"I don't understand. What about this plan displeases you?"
Northern had turned around and was about to walk away when he heard her. He paused, fiercely gritting his teeth within closed lips.
It felt as though her words were deliberately aimed to prickle him because what other explanation could there be.
'It is very likely that she's doing this intentionally. Calm down, calm down.'
