She Knows!

Quinlan, of course, couldn't refuse the Lord's offer. Who knows what she would do to him if she got upset? He did not wish to become a blemish on the wall, akin to the man who had previously caused him irritation.

Although he was expecting to have a bit of time to gather his wits, Senior Bai merely waved her hand, and the scenery changed, like several curtains opening up, revealing a different location in a flash.

A gaudy room filled with various weapons, sealed in glass cases, adorning the walls. A low table in the middle of it, with cushions already prepared around it, enough for four, one on each edge of the table.

"Come, sit down."

Senior Bai urged him as she moved to the table before sitting down in a seiza. Quinlan didn't hesitate and moved to the cushion opposite her chosen side while letting the Azure Dragon Spear, who refused to leave his grip, lay horizontally above his lap.
