1406 So, Where Are The Two Little Troublemakers?

Three days after William met Rebecca, the Half-Elf returned to the Ainsworth Empire to resume his goal to visit as many Forbidden Grounds as possible.

Rebecca had also returned to the Misty Sect to handle a few things that William asked of her, allowing the Half-Elf to focus on things that needed his immediate attention.

However, as soon as he arrived at the Royal Palace, he found someone waiting for him, whom he didn't expect to see at this point in time.

"Welcome home, Darling."

A lady whose looks were just a little above average reached out to give William a hug before planting a kiss on his cheek. 

"Missed me?"

The red-headed teenager stared at his supposedly Ninth Wife, who now appeared before his eyes.

"Yes, I missed you, Cathy." William replied as he looked at the lady who represented the Eighth Heavenly Virtue of Hope. "What are you doing here?"

"Boooo! Aren't you supposed to kiss me back?" Cathay pouted.
