At night, Trish was in his room. He sat on the couch while massaging his temples. He felt dizzy thinking about all the problems that he had to settle.
He wondered how Rion and Odette were? Was their journey going well without any problems?
He was really worried about them.
“Hey, you! Is it true that Odette has left the capital?”
Trish glanced sideways at the fairy confined in the glass case on the table. He stood up, pulled a chair, and sat beside the table. He looked closely at Narine.
“Yes,” he replied.
Narine was stunned. For a moment, she fell silent and seemed to think hard about something.
“Then… has Aathreya not been found yet?” Narine asked again. She wished Trish would say ‘no’.
“No,” Trish replied curtly.
Narine was relieved but also worried because there was no news about Aathreya as if the man had been swallowed into the earth. She feared that Aathreya was killed by a vampire or died somewhere due to his illness.
