Noah and Emily were walking silently through the hallway after stepping out of the guild master's private chamber. The news they had just received left both of them in a shaken mental state.
"I hope it's really him…" Noah's thoughts wandered as they kept walking.
During the tournament, Logan's skills, his personality…everything had left a deep impression on him. That's why he had genuinely looked forward to Logan's future. He wanted to see what achievements the boy would accomplish. But that sudden death had shattered all those hopes.
After walking for a while and passing few turns, they eventually reached the main hall. Suddenly, as if struck by a thought, Noah grabbed Emily's hand and stopped her. "Honey… what if we don't let Lilith join Leo's party for now, and have her join Gideon's party instead?"
"You think it's really him?" Emily didn't answer and asked a question in return.
