Chapter 80 - He Left (1/2)

”Where is he?” Hecathe asked as he looked at the woman.

”The tenant?” The woman tilted her head in confusion as she asked.

Hecathe nodded his head as he confirmed and waited for the woman to give him an answer.

”He left with them,” The woman shrugged her shoulder as she answered casually, making it seem as if this was not a big deal at all.

”Left with them?” Hecathe repeated her words with a bit of confusion.

”They came and asked for him. I called him down and then he simply left,” The woman explained, ”He hasn't come back after that.”

”Oh...” Hecathe muttered as he picked up the sandwich again and continued to eat.

He had not met that other tenant yet but from all the things that he had heard about that man, it seemed as if he was going to be trouble.

He was probably a real hunter who worked for the three willows of spring and that in itself made him a dangerous person for Hecathe to come across.

”Sir, you still didn't explain how you know Alphius!” Zail exclaimed as he looked at Hecathe curiously.

”When did I say I was going to explain?” Hecathe asked back as he clicked his tongue.

”...”

”There's nothing to talk about,” Hecathe sighed as he spoke somewhat honestly, ”I just somehow came to know him and it wasn't my choice but we became somewhat close.”

So close that they had the same body.

The Landlady couldn't help but chuckle as she heard this and her cheeks turned even more red making Zail's face cringe up.

”Young man,” The woman spoke up with a smile as she looked at Hecathe, ”I have to say, I'm thankful that you're helping me, but if you ever need help with Alphius, you can always come to me.”

”Are you going to ask me to pay for your assistance?” Hecathe's eyes narrowed down on the woman as he questioned.

”Of course, I would,” The woman chuckled as she confirmed Hecathe's thoughts, ”Nothing comes for free. If you want my help, you'll have to pay for it but you can rest assured that I'll be willing to give you a discount.”

”...”

Hecathe chuckled as he nodded his head and responded, ”Thank you for your offer, but there's nothing you can do for me right now.”

Hecathe quickly finished eating the chicken sandwich and grabbed the water before heading back up the stairs towards his room.

As soon as he opened the door, he was greeted by the little Dorgon that sat in the middle of the cleanroom.

”You really cleaned it?” Hecathe muttered with a bit of surprise as he looked around, ”Good job.”

”Yes, I did!” The Dorgon beamed proudly, ”Now where is my breakfast?”
