I went to visit the Weldon manor at the appointed time and looked up at the building.

“It’s been a long time,” I murmured to myself.

I had honestly never thought I’d set foot here again. After all, this was my ex-fiancé’s house. We were now back to being perfect strangers, never to be involved in each other’s lives again. I had no right to be here, or at least that was the way things were supposed to be.

I let out a sigh—I was already feeling depressed. I knew this wouldn’t be a very fun conversation. After I heaved another sigh, I went up to the door.

A servant greeted me at the door and led me inside. As I walked past the other servants, they all bowed their heads politely to me. I wondered if they were feeling a mixture of complex emotions seeing me again as well.

“Lord Etoile is waiting for you in here.”

“Thank you.”

The servant led me in front of a room and then left, as if to say I was on my own from now on. Those instructions must’ve come from Etoile himself, which meant the topic at hand must be quite serious.

“Etoile? It’s me,” I said.

“Come in.”

I opened the door and went inside. We made eye contact immediately, but only for a brief second before he looked away.

“I’m grateful you came,” he said.

“Are you? It doesn’t look like you’re very happy that I’m here.”

“That’s not true.”

Nothing but lies.

His entire being oozed with the sentiment that he didn’t even want to see my face. Was it unconscious on his part, or was he purposely directing that attitude towards me? I couldn’t tell, but either way, it didn’t matter. I didn’t want to stay here any longer than I had to.

“Tell me what you want,” I said. “Why have you called me here?”

He didn’t answer, and I found myself growing more and more irritated by his hesitation. He was the one who’d summoned me here to discuss something, alone, so I wondered why in the world he’d hestitate now.

“Hurry up and tell me. If you’re not going to talk, then I’m going home,” I threatened.

After a long pause, he spoke. “I discovered the location of a primordial beast.”

I had seriously been on the verge of turning around and going home, but his words stopped me in my tracks.

“What?!” I narrowed my eyes. “Is this true?”

He nodded and continued. “Yes. Just one of the remaining two, but I’ve figured out its general location.”

“I don’t understand. Am I the only one you’re telling?”

All the guardians had been meeting and sharing information with each other while the kingdom’s knights were pulling out all the stops to search for the primordial beasts. The other guardians already knew about the beasts, so why would he hide this information from them? Why only tell me? It didn’t make sense.

“Yes,” he said. “I’ll tell the others, but first, I want you to help me with something.”

“Help you with what? You’re asking me specifically for my help?”

“Correct.
