Chapter 347

Ronin's face was grim and tired. He furrowed his brow, glanced at Ophelia, and quickly looked away

"Did something happen to Kenneth?" Ivy's eyes widened in alarm. If not for the guild members holding her back, she would have rushed to Ronin.

Ronin's gaze landed on Ophelia again. Seeing his expression, Ophelia panicked, yet her face remained calm.

"Is Kenneth..." Her voice was a bit hoarse, but her tone was very even.

"You're so heartless. There's no telling when Kenneth will wake up, yet you're so composed and not sad at all. Do you really love him?" Ophelia answered, "What's the point of being sad? You'd better watch your tongue. I allowed
