Ayen thought they would enter the building and the two would give him a tour inside, but they only bid farewell to the group that welcomed them before they went in another direction.
Devion seemed to have anticipated this and so went along; only Ayen was confused. They went on a car this time, as using Liz was far too eye-catching, not to mention she was already acting up.
Khal took the driving seat, and Devion took the passenger seat. Naturally, Ayen was in the back seat. There was enough foot traffic in the city, and unlike in other cities they visited, cars were not rare.
"I told you that I want you to meet them." Khal's voice rang inside the car; his voice was not as serious, but Ayen could finally feel the deep nuance in it.
Perhaps because this was Khal's hometown, Ayen somewhat realized who he was referring to. Hearing no questions from him, both the espers smiled knowingly.
Ayen was truly perceptive.
