Her Graceful War Song by Summer's Blaze

Chapter 141

"You still remember her, Your Highness?" Carissa asked in surprise.

Carissa was even more surprised, "You've been to the Pathfinders Guild before?"

"Yes. Before I was deployed to the Southern Frontier battlefield, I used to go to the guild once a year," he said softly..

"I didn't know about that. I've never seen you there," Carissa said, astonished. "Why did you visit the Pathfinders Guild every year?"

"To travel and also to seek guidance on martial arts from your master and uncle. It's no wonder you never saw me. I was always in and out quickly, and I stayed at Treasure Emporium, which you usually avoided."
