" A… Please don't kill me. This is just a misunderstanding… I'm not a bad person a…."
The woman figure raised her hand as she shrieked in horror.
It was strange to see someone else here, especially a weak woman like her here.
Yet, for some reason, when he saw this, Aurum couldn't see any trace of hostility at all from the woman, so he decided to sheathe his sword.
In moments like this, uncertainty was your greatest enemy. And if it was Cade with the advice of Lord Grigory he would definitely have struck the woman first before trying to find out what happened.
After all, wouldn't it be better to kill rather than be killed?
But Aurum was different from Cade.
After years of facing hatred and despising glare, he knew which one he could trust or not.
And this time, he put his bet on his instinct as he walked closer to the woman in the hood.
"You are not supposed the be here, aren't you.. So why are you here?"
Aurum decided to ask the woman quite openly.
