"Did he agree?"

A beautiful woman wearing a long, rich blue gown with white embroidery questioned, her eyes brimming with excitement.

She was Elowen Mistwood, the City Lord's first wife.

Sylas shook his head with a disappointed look on his face.

"He didn't…?"

Elowen was taken aback.

Sylas nodded again.

"He must be tired.

Elowen lowered her head. She couldn't deny what Sylas said, but…

"We could have used this chance to get close to the Hero."

She muttered.

"It is a pity…"

Sylas lowered his head as well.

The couple wanted the Hero and his Party to dine at the main Dining Hall, together with their family.
