Can an Enemy Become Salvation? (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 184

“What did you see, my lord?”

At Tuvayan’s unusual reaction, Ivenel asked urgently, wondering if perhaps he had seen something similar to what she had.

Tuvayan recalled that time from over twenty years ago—a memory that remained painfully vivid for him.

“As you well know, young lady, after the monsters vanished from Aodin, our relationship with them changed completely. Our meetings became noticeably fewer.”

“It would be more accurate to say they utterly ignored us. The moment they confirmed the monsters had entirely disappeared, their attitude shifted completely.”
