Sigh...

Orcenal Silverlane saw one of his partners, an old man with Eastern Styled clothing, shake his head sadly. "There's nothing valuable we can get here. Everything got absorbed into that baby's body."

"So we can make any elixir from it?" Orcenal asked just to be sure.

The old man shook his head again. "But we can have the horn and the meat."

Silence enveloped the site as Helena looked around her and squinted her eyes. She hugged her baby tight, afraid that they would try to attack her and sell her baby.

"It's my miscalculation. Don't be afraid, Marchioness," Orcenal said while glaring at everyone else. The man was trying to send a clear message to everyone that he wanted to protect the baby.

The troupe members turned their faces away. Well, the corrupted minds of ex-criminals and vigilantes with twisted morals might think this opportunity should not be missed.
