The moment Lucian and Seraphina stepped out of the Association building, quite a few people instinctively turned their heads, watching their departing backs as they quietly murmured among themselves.
"Hey, Lily."
Lily, who had still been lost in her own thoughts, was snapped back to reality by the voice.
She turned slightly, only to find two men standing before the counter. Their clothes looked slightly worn, while crude-looking weapons hung from their waists, making it obvious they were awakened who had already entered dungeons a few times.
"What is it?"
Her voice came out calm and professional, no longer carrying even the slightest trace of the awkwardness she had shown while speaking to Lucian.
Her colleagues noticed the difference almost immediately, and couldn't help but curse her inwardly—while some didn't even bother hiding it.
