We walked for a while, and now we arrived at the capital.

"So you guys won't go back?" I asked Asmodeus and Maverick

"No, we'll stay in the village, I'm going to book a room so stay here," Asmodeus said 

"Camelia, you know something right?" Maverick asked me

"What?"

"The Dragon's Heart" Maverick whispered to me

The Dragon's Heart is a special stone. The novel said it's inside the Crimson's family mine site. But no one knows about it, until Calisto, Camelia's brother found it. He was one of the boys who were interested in Angelica. 

"It's inside my family's mine," I said

"I know, that's why I'm asking you for help," Maverick said

"Hey, what are you guys talking about?" Aaron asked

"But, I gave my authority to Azael," I said 

"What? Why?" Maverick asked

"He's my mercenary," I said

"You're still the same, all you think is just money"

"You guys know each other well?" Aaron asked

"Yeah, in the past life," I and Maverick said

That's right, we both know each other well in the past life. Even we look like we're not that close, but we know each other well. Asher was the only guy who respects me at school, while the others are just taking advantage of me. I was a pushover, but Asher always reminds me to take a rest and ignore those people. But because I don't want to make some weird rumors, I keep my distance from him.

"What a reunion, you guys are lucky to be in the same world," Aaron said

He got some point though, it's a rare opportunity to be in the same world with your friend that you know well. I'm blessed.

"Wait so you read that novel then?" I asked Maverick

"Yeah, I was curious about it because I thought that book may be interesting to read," he said

"I'm disappointed with the book though," I said

"Same, you'll die right?" he asked

"That's why I'm surviving right now"

"But it's best for you if you avoid the engagement"

"Yeah, but it may be a hard task"

"Why don't you stay in Lennox for a while?"

"You're right, that's a great idea"

Asher is the best, I even didn't think of it. If I stayed in Lennox for a year, I can avoid the engagement. All I need is to persuade the Duke, I'll tell him I'm traveling and won't go back for a while.

"I'm done with the reservations, let's go," Asmodeus said

"Hey Maverick, didn't you say that your brother was a tyrant?" Aaron asked 

"Yeah, but only in his territory" Maverick answered with a sigh

I suddenly had a bad feeling, I think something bad will happen

"ARGHHHH" someone screamed

"What the hell was that?" Aaron was shocked

"F***, it's the Moskal," Maverick said
