Ausia and the others' departure made the Hearthstone Tavern much quieter.
Of course, that was only relative.
Compared with usual, the tavern was even livelier now, mainly thanks to the dwarves who had come during their noon break. Even if there were no seats available, it was still nice to get a taste of Cola.
Most of the familiar customers had already left. Perhaps finding things a little boring, Anno thought for a moment and headed toward the counter.
"Boss, where's Ziyan?"
"Upstairs." Luo Chuan pointed overhead.
Anno nodded, and the sound of her footsteps climbing the stairs soon faded away.
Luo Chuan glanced toward the staircase, then returned to his original energy-saving state. He propped up his chin and gazed at the distant city in a daze, no one knew what he was thinking about.
Time hurried by.
The sun gradually sank toward the end of the horizon, forming a magnificent crown above the earth. Against the backdrop of the setting sun, the towering clock tower and high walls seemed to become black silhouettes.
Pedestrians hurried along, bathed in golden light as the setting sun cast long shadows at their feet.
Luo Chuan stood before the window with his eyes closed, feeling the warmth of sunlight falling over him.
A field of crimson filled his vision. Even with his eyes closed, the light pierced through his eyelids and entered his eyes.
"Luo Chuan, dinner!"
Yao Ziyan's voice came from upstairs.
The entire building was equipped with soundproofing magic, so that shout from the girl had probably directly used the power of the God of Destiny.
He ambled upstairs.
Dinner began.
"Luo Chuan, are you ready to attend that meeting tonight?" Yao Ziyan asked as she ate.
"What is there to prepare? We can just go." Luo Chuan answered casually.
