While whispering with each other, Khal also moved with them.
"Let me carry your bag." Khal touched Ayen's bag.
Ayen let him get the bag, and it slid off him.
Just as Ayen was about to say something again, he suddenly remembered. He seemed to have forgotten something.
Ayen glanced beside him, then paused. He immediately met Nolan and Lucian's shocked expressions. He was looking as though he was asking for help or something.
Devion also noticed the two guides with Ayen. His gaze swept the two. "Are they your friends?" he asked.
Nolan and Lucian could not help but straighten their postures as if any slight mistakes could cost them their lives.
Khal did not speak, merely watching the two. Shivers run down their spines; they can hardly believe that this simple send-off would have such a terrifying twist.
Ayen thought for a moment. They were not exactly friends, but should he say no?
"You can say that." Ayen chose to answer this way.
