Chapter566-Complete Preparations
In the heart of Storm City, within the vast, echoing halls of the Great Library, Duke Arsena and Natasha found themselves together, stationed on the first floor.
They were enveloped in a palpable air of anticipation, awaiting John's arrival, which was prompted by a cryptic message he had dispatched to them earlier.
"Lady Natasha, I wish to revisit a previous concern," Natasha said, idly flipping through a book beside a shelf.
"Do you truly believe that John can continue to be of significant assistance to us? Despite his past rescues, I remain wary of placing too much trust in an adventurer. Let's not forget, adventurers can accept quests from other factions. It's possible that John is currently undertaking a quest that could be against our interests."
Although Natasha had collaborated effectively with John before, her position as a General of the Northern Myst Empire made her inherently distrustful of adventurers.
