Chapter 117 - Lisa; Sooner or Later I Will Find The Truth (2) (1/2)

(Jane's PoV)

I had waited for the elder to utter some words of recognition for Siji, but the elder didn't say anything, much to my disappointment. After staring at Siji for a while, the elder didn't look at him anymore and returned to his usual aloof stance. He didn't look at me or Siji anymore, but somehow I knew this elderly was not an easy one. He acted as if he didn't know about Siji but I knew he did.

Anyway, I wouldn't scare this young woman by saying that there was an elder behind her and some other powerful astral beings.

Ignoring the others and focusing on building a good relationship with this young woman named Lisa, I finally had something to busy my days.

Of course, this happened before Sanji came. By the time Sanji finished his work and came to find me, Lisa had gone to her new work place.

After my first meeting with Lisa, I went back home only after I managed to make an appointment with her to meet on the next day. I was totally curious about her.

But, that night an uninvited guest came to my house. Since my house had a barrier around to prevent unrecognized 'beings' came into the house, the elder had to wait for my permission to get into the house.

Siji was the one who told me about his coming. Even though he had already passed away for so long, I still needed to show him my respect as a junior towards a senior. So, I didn't waste any time to come and accept him at the front door.

”Please, come in, Elder.” I politely invited him in.

The elderly walked inside and threw me a glance. ”Don't you feel afraid I might hurt you after you let me in?” He asked calmly.

I smiled at him. ”Well, I'm sure you don't have that thought, right?”

The elder's thin lips curled up a bit into a fleeting smile, but he said no more. I followed him into the room and watched him sat on the soft couch. There was a slight movement on the couch but it was not as heavy as when a human was sitting on it.

I took a seat at the nearest couch as I was still watching the elderly not far from me. Before I could speak, Siji came and stood beside me, but he didn't say anything.

As soon as Siji appeared, the elderly's eyes moved onto him.

”Long time no see, Number Seven.” The Elderly started.
