Chapter 129: Annoying Realization

"Is the tea to your liking, Lady Acacia?"

The lady picked up the golden-brimmed cup and took a sip.

In the office room on the top floor of a merchant group, I and Luther stood behind the lady as she gently brought the cup underneath her veil. The man sitting across her with a muscular build and a sharp face was the owner of the rising merchant group, behind him exactly seventeen guards as strong as a Gold Ranked Adventurer.

It was a rare sight, but I guess big cities were different.

The lady hummed after taking the sip.

"It's trash."

With just a cold comment, she tossed the cup away.

The man flinched.

The cup crashed and broke into bits.

"You're just as bold as I have heard, my lady," said the merchant. "It's charming, but I do wonder if it will ever bite you in the back."
