Chapter 1406 - A Night in the Kingdom of Dawn (1/2)

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

To most people, it was a rare night of respite and relaxation.

Even though the Demon’s floating island was steadily moving towards Hermes, the King of Dawn could not see this scene. Being a distance from the front line gave everyone a brief sense of tranquility, especially when they were to head to the battlefield the next day. As the soldiers had to separate to carry out their various missions, the serenity became even more precious.

When Andrea walked into the family courtyard, Horford was already there waiting for her.

“Welcome home, daughter.”

“Yeah…” Andrea nodded slightly. This was her first return home after a year of separation, not as an intruder but through the main path with servants lined along the path to welcome her. In all honesty, she had hoped to spend more time by Tilly’s side, but after receiving an invitation letter by her father emotions stirred within her. In the end, she chose to accept it.

He obviously could have told me directly after the meeting.

Maybe… he was afraid of being rejected.

But if it truly came to a face to face request, she would be at a loss as to what to say as well.

The difference between her current and previous visit meeting was that she had a task on hand the previous time, but this time, it was a strange reunion.

“You… wanted to talk to me about something?” Andrea while walking on the path.

“Lots of things. For example, what you’ve experienced at the front lines, your companions, and about Mister Roland Wimbledon…”

“He is just an idiot, there’s nothing to talk about—” Andrea casually spoke, then realized her words were inappropriate, “Uhm, what I mean to say was…”

“Arrangements?”

“You’ll know once you step in.” He stopped by the entrance of the main hall.

Andrea pushed open the doors. Before she was able to take a good look in the house, a figure pounced onto her—

“I’ve missed you, Lady Quinn!”

I see…

She opened her arms with a laugh as she hugged the other party.

The person who had pounced onto her was none other than Belinda Luoxi.

Other than her, there were two others seated by the table—Otto Luoxi and Oro Tokat. The two appeared rather emotional, with Otto looking as though he was at a loss.

The scene made Andrea feel as though she was back to more than a decade ago, the days before she awakened as a Witch.

Belinda’s endless chatter and Orro’s enthusiasm quickly dissolved the original stiffness, and her father who was rarely sat with the younger generation, was actually seated together with them.

Just to say a few words to me, he truly gave it a lot of thought… Andrea suddenly realized the little bit of resentment at the bottom of her heart had almost disappeared.

“Oh right, when the war is over, let’s all go to Neverwinter. That way, we can meet more regularly.” Belinda winked at her.

Andrea raised her brow in surprise. “You mean…”
