Aiden waited patiently for Serina and Shelly to return. Serina had been fighting the Spirit Saint from a distance, while Shelly stood by to assist if necessary. When they finally came back, Serina wore a somber expression on her face.
"What happened? Why the long face?" he asked, looking first at Serina and then at Shelly.
Shelly shook her head and summoned another ghost. By the clothes, Aiden recognized the ghost as the same Spirit Saint of the Heavy Serpent Clan they had just killed.
"What about him?" Aiden asked, intrigued.
"We learned something from him," Shelly replied.
Aiden turned his attention to Serina, who began to explain the unsettling truth they had uncovered.
