"So, Ash, are you interested in joining one of those groups? I actually believe you don't need any teammates. But, it's your choice. I'm just offering," said Drogo, his gaze still fixed on Ash.
Ash returned the gaze of the man he thought looked even thinner and replied, "Sorry, Sir. For now, I don't want to join any Finding Team."
Drogo seemed surprised by the young man's words and paused to think for a moment. Ash's answer was completely unexpected.
"But, I will stay here for a while, Sir, if you don't mind," Ash added, causing Drogo to furrow his brows even more.
"Will you be staying here with that young woman you brought along?" he asked.
Ash, who had already guessed that Drogo knew he arrived with Maya, nodded. "Yes, Sir. She's a good friend of mine."
Drogo remained silent for a while, and eventually, Ash broke the silence, saying, "I'm going to rent a small house, still within the Drogo Castle area."
