Ch 237: The Elves- Part 2

Bruce stood beside Kyle in the quiet courtyard, arms folded tightly as if bracing for bad news. He studied his young master's face, trying to read the unreadable.

"What exactly are you planning, young master? I've got a bad feeling about this." 

Bruce asked at last, his voice low. 

Kyle didn't look up from the documents he was skimming. 

"I'm not planning anything… yet."

Bruce sighed. 

"That doesn't help. What are you going to do next?"

Kyle placed the papers aside and leaned back in his chair. 

"The elven forest."

Bruce's brow furrowed. 

"You want to go into the elf lands? They're a secretive race, my lord. They barely trust outsiders. Without a connection, they'll never let you in."

"I have a connection. I still have Silvy."

 Kyle said calmly. 

Bruce blinked.

"Silvy? That—That elf girl? The one who tried to scam you?" 

He caught himself before calling her what he truly wanted to.
