The plain-looking letter lay on the desk, together with today's newspaper.
Having rehung his overcoat, Lu Li walked over to the desk and picked up the letter.
The front page of the newspaper underneath, with Baron Joseph flashing by, caught Lu Li's gaze for a brief few seconds before he shifted his attention and tore open the envelope to take out the letter.
[Dear Lu Li]
[It has been a long time since our last parting and we have not been in touch.]
[My brother and I have traveled to the Earlen Peninsula Duchy and are touring Arlenbeth County. It's just as you described, with the air filled with the enchanting smell of the sea. Unfortunately, the plants have not bloomed this year, so we couldn't witness the scenery you mentioned.]
[My brother's condition has improved quite a bit. Although he remains lucid for only a small part of the day, his health hasn't deteriorated further, and the monsters no longer attack strangers who approach him.]
