Raising the pendant so Gad could have a better view of it, Kritz gritted his teeth as he yelled, "what the hell is this doing in your possession?!"
Gad raised a brow and bit down on his bottom lip to stifle a laugh.
"You tried to kill me because of that trinket?"
'Trinket?!' Kritz's brows twitched and involuntarily let out a laugh in disbelief.
The very object that would help his lord in his search for Dalsa, yet a guard had made a degrading remark?
Inhaling and exhaling, Kritz forced a smile, "could you tell me how this had gotten into your possession?"
Rubbing his chin, Gad narrowed his eyes in suspicion. "Why do I feel like this is worth something?"
"It would be in your interest if you answer the question I ask so politely." Kritz countered.
Clicking his tongue and knowing he stood no chance in dueling to keep the information to himself, he offered his hand to propose a deal.
"If I do tell you, you have to give me five thousand silver coins a month from now."
