Chapter 101.34

Upon arriving at the mountain top and finding an inn they will stay for the night, Aeriel and Invictus separated from each other temporarily.

"Aeriel, I will be out for a bit," said Invictus, already at the door of their

room, bringing nothing with him but only what he has on.

The long, tiring walk from the feet of the mountain, all the way up to its peak where the main establishments of the town were built drained Aeriel of her energy.

She is on her bed, relaxing. "It's almost dinner time, Lord Invictus."

"I just have some business to deal with."

"But you told me you're only here for sightseeing?"

Confused, Aeriel got up, about to follow Invictus in the doorway when he put his hand out on her, stopping her from continuing any further.
