The Palace(1)

Chapter 1124: The Palace(1)

Time flew by, and both Lily and Aakesh were sitting in their chairs.

Aakesh didn't have his usual smile on his face while Lily was detailing the scene and how things played out in her territory. Lily's voice shook slightly at first, but soon it turned calm and cold like ice.

"Are you sure you don't want me there?" Aakesh asked after Lily stopped talking.

"Yes, I am sure," Lily replied. At first, her voice didn't sound confident at all, but by the end, it was filled with determination.

Aakesh nodded, accepting Lily's opinion. He wanted to help Lily and also vent some of his anger. But he also wanted Lily to grow and become strong on her own; otherwise, there was no point in him giving up large commissions to the system over allowing Lily to be a native as well as have the revival characteristics of an adventurer.
