"Did he agree?"
A beautiful woman wearing a long, rich blue gown with white embroidery questioned, her eyes brimming with excitement.
She was Elowen Mistwood, the City Lord's first wife.
"He didn't."
Sylas shook his head with a disappointed look on his face.
"He didn't…?"
Elowen was taken aback.
Sylas nodded again.
"He must be tired.
And…
Our children didn't exactly make a good first impression."
Elowen lowered her head. She couldn't deny what Sylas said, but…
"We could have used this chance to get close to the Hero."
She muttered.
"It is a pity…"
Sylas lowered his head as well.
The couple wanted the Hero and his Party to dine at the main Dining Hall, together with their family.
Outwardly, it was a way for the Mistwood family to serve the Hero, but what they truly wanted was to introduce their children to the Hero, especially their daughters. And if any of them caught the Hero's eye…
Yes, they were planning to tie the knot with the Hero.
