Chapter 3275 Meeting Aelion

Creeeak... Despite her petite frame, the utility cover groaned as Arabella managed to push it open. It was a struggle that would have challenged even a burly man, but she pried it just enough to squeeze out.

When she finally climbed out into the night, the moonlight hit her face, revealing her grimy appearance. She collapsed on the ground, exhausted. Her clothes were drenched in the sewer's foul stench, but her striking features still shone through the muck. Tap, tap, tap. The sound of shoes made her jump. She saw two pairs of black shoes standing right before her. Startled, she scrambled to her feet and came face-to-face with Aelion, bathed in the moon's glow.

Aelion was dressed in white robes and had a unique and androgynous look. His features were delicate, and his skin was even paler than Arabella's. It was tough to figure out his gender. His eyes, though, had a trace of recognition as they locked onto Arabella. "Who are you, and what are you doing here at this hour?" Aelion asked, his voice calm and smooth.

Aelion wasn't often seen in public. He preferred to stay out of sight on rooftops or up in trees around the palace. He only showed up when he had to sign off on documents or handle big decisions. Gadel had once wondered why Aelion was always keeping a low profile and sticking around the palace, but eventually, he figured it out.
