Chapter 251 : Masks

"What happened? Did your wife run off on you?"

Elric sighed before nodding his head. He didn't have the time nor the will to start explaining why he was asking around for Eira. "Yes, my wife and I had a bit of a misunderstanding earlier and she left. I was hoping you or anyone has seen her around?"

"Hmm, I'm not sure if I can be of much help lad," the blacksmith responded as he put down the blade he had been polishing. His handi work was actually very impressive, Elric would make sure to remember him. "What does the wife look like?"

Elric pursed his lips and thought for a minute, what did Eira look like? She had long curly red locs of hair that flowed down her shoulders and back. She had enchanting purple eyes and skin as smooth and as mesmerizing as amber.

 "Beautiful," Elric responded plainly making the blacksmith laugh. A light blush tinted his cheeks, the word had involuntarily escaped his lips without thinking. Gods this was embarrassing.
