Standing behind Alexander, Michelle couldn't see his expression, but she could clearly see the shock on the old tavern lady's face, making her frown a bit. Alexander was clearly from the upper, if not the heavenly realm, and though he did stay in the Land of Exile for a long time, there was no reason for a tavern lady in the lower realm to know him. Unless he had stopped at the tavern before he went into the Land of Exile.
Quickly, the old tavern lady controlled her expression and bowed her head calmly. "My Lord!"
Alexander just nodded at her and glanced back at Michelle with his playful smile still on his face. "How many people do you need to fit in the place?" he asked with a tilt of his head.
Michelle moved her gaze between the old lady and Alexander for a while before she closed her eyes for a moment to absorb the information. "Twelve thousand..." she said as she opened her eyes.
