Chapter 560 Encounter with Nasida
"I'm sorry...but believe it or not, there's only so much I can do."
A soft voice sounded, right behind Elhaysen.
Everyone looked at the source of the sound. Catherine, the receptionist at the Adventurers Association office, was standing there quietly, as if she had been there from beginning to end.
Catherine's face was full of sadness and self-blame. Alhaysen held his chin and looked at the other person with a thoughtful expression.
"Sister, are you unhappy? What makes you so sad? Don't be sad, okay? Alvin can sing to you."
It wasn't until they heard the voices that everyone realized that Catherine was holding a little girl beside her.
From what she said, her name seemed to be Alvin.
Alvin looked at Catherine with great concern, humming Xumi's nursery rhyme softly in the hope that this would make her feel a little better.
"I'm fine, Alvin. Sister is just...sister is just a little tired after running for too long. Sister, can I take you home now?"
Alvin's singing seemed to really move Catherine. She bent down and stroked the other person's hair, smiling silently.
"I know that everyone has many questions in their minds... Everyone, can you give me some time? I will send this child home first, and I will answer your questions later."
They turned around and looked at each other without saying a word, just looking at each other in confusion. Catherine bowed slightly politely, and then said goodbye to everyone after agreeing to answer for a while, and left here with the little girl named Alvin.
"That's... Miss Catherine, right? It's strange, when did she come? I didn't notice it at all... And what she said was so strange, um... are all the people in the Adventurers Association like this?"
After watching Catherine leave, the first person to speak was not the talkative Paimon, but the somewhat confused Disia.
"Um...this is a bit complicated to explain. The person just now was not Miss Catherine from the Adventurers Association? Let's wait until she comes back to explain the specific situation. It just so happens that Ying and I also have many things we want to ask her."
Paimon and Ying looked at each other, scratching their heads and not knowing how to explain.
If nothing unexpected happened, the "Katherine" just now should be Nasida.
Nasida herself, who they had been looking for for a long time but could not find, appeared in front of them. This was indeed something to be happy about. But they couldn't just reveal something for Nasida... What if she hadn't planned to reveal her identity yet?
If that's the case, wouldn't it be too much for them to say it?
"That's it, okay then, just wait a little longer... Hey, what are you thinking about?"
Desiya scratched her head, but she didn't have any special opinion on this. At worst, just wait, there won't be any problem.
However, from the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of Alhaysen beside her, and found that he seemed to have maintained that meditative posture for a while. So I couldn't help but ask questions.
Although Elhaysen had gotten rid of his prisoner status in the recent negotiation, Desia was not so easy to forgive a person who had planned evil intentions against her friend.
So it's natural to be secretly wary of whether this guy is causing trouble in secret.
"It's rude to disturb other people's thinking. I understand your wariness towards me, but I don't think you have the right to interfere with my right to think."
When Erhaisen heard Desiya's inquiry, he just raised his eyes and didn't intend to pay attention. But after feeling the increasingly suspicious gaze from Desiya, he finally sighed and refuted helplessly.
Although the tone was not serious, it carried an unquestionable momentum.
"Decia, let him go. Although the battle lines have not been clearly defined, we can still be considered on one side until the conversation is completely over... Elhaysen, you also care about what Miss Catherine just said, right?"
When the atmosphere was about to become tense again, Ying ran out in time and became the peacemaker. While comforting Disiya's emotions, he tested Elhaysen's attitude.
It is not a wise move for either party to start a conflict now. It is better to wait until Nasida comes back to share the information before making any plans.
She could feel that it was Nasida's words that aroused Elhaysen's interest, otherwise he would not have wasted time waiting in vain for him.
Even if he doesn't pat his butt and leave, now the other party should ask to continue discussing the unfinished topics... He will remain silent only because he is more interested in the "clearing of doubts" that Nasida said.
Ying had a hunch that Elhaysen should be able to play a big role in this incident. Now I just hope that the content of Nasida's so-called "answer" is enough to move Elhaysen.
