Elion, Tristan and the manager waited seated at a table for about twenty minutes before the Red Lion's owner came. His name was Lex, a human guy at the Meriand Expansion Realm.
Lex went through the "Staff Only" door, and the trio followed closely behind. Elion struck him on the nape, knocking him out. When Lex regained consciousness, he found himself confined in the manager's office.
"Good evening, Mr. Lex. According to our manager here, that should be your name. I'm called Elion, and I came looking for two girls who you happened to sell yesterday. Now, tell me where they are," said Elion with a cold smile, flashing Seraphina's badge again.
The moment Lex woke up, he planned to threaten the trio, but after seeing the badge, his thoughts of resistance were completely gone—the guy in front of him was stronger and had more authority. What could a small pub owner do?
