Chapter 942

"Bro, what are you even talking about?"

Elvis, as always, flashed that carefree smirk, the kind that suggested he'd use the sky as a blanket if it fell. "Who said anything about a duel to the death? I'm just going back to report in.

Evadne pouted, her lips a bright shade of rebellion, pinching her earlobe. "Remember, I've got ears everywhere!"

Elvis took a deep breath, a dull ache spreading through his heart. "If Avery's bold enough to reveal his location and even suggests meeting in Helgen, it means we're in for a nasty fight. Honestly, I'm scared."
