Sophia cleared her throat softly, signaling the two behind her to stop whispering. It'd be rude if Elias overheard them.
But Elias just smiled faintly, "It's understandable for this gentleman to have doubts. Honestly, I haven't been feeling too well lately."
"Uh..." Sophia froze for a second, realizing he'd already overheard their whispers.
This alone proved Elias had incredibly sharp senses and keen insight—definitely a top-tier expert.
"Mr. Elias, are you...injured?" Sophia asked cautiously.
"Yeah, to tell you the truth, before coming here, we had a pretty intense fight with another Zombie King listed in the Zombie King files. It drained me quite a bit, and I got slightly injured. Cough, cough!" Elias admitted openly.
Sophia was even more surprised, "Which Zombie King was it?"
