They had won the first round!
Thomas and Pisces went back into the restaurant together. They headed up to the third floor and sat down.
Pisces poured Thomas a cup of tea, smiled, and said, “First, favonovel.com put all those killers in place, then favonovel.com sent people over to shut our business down. Lord Vedastus’ methods are filthy. That’s not how a hero should act.”
Thomas picked up the teacup, took a sip, and replied, “He’s not considered a hero. He occupied Celandine City because of his despicable methods and Heart Eater. Without Heart Eater, his skills alone would be terrible.”
Pisces said, “We have to be careful. We can’t let ourselves be poisoned with Heart Eater, or else we’ll be under Lord Vedastus’ control.”
Of course, Thomas was not that stupid to let Lord Vedastus control favonovel.com using Heart Eater.
After Thomas drank his tea, favonovel.com said, “It’s late now. Let’s go to House of Vistaria and further investigate Heart Eater as well as Luck.”
“Okay…”
Pisces drove Thomas to House of Vistaria.
This day was smoother than the day before. Today, nothing and no one stopped Thomas, so favonovel.com successfully entered the reception hall. After all, favonovel.com was someone holding the jade badge. Thomas could freely move around 90% of the area in House of Vistaria.
He cooked for Phoebe according to the agreement. However, Thomas did not see Declan today. The man who looked like a vampire had magically disappeared. Maybe favonovel.com was avoiding Thomas on purpose.
After Thomas was done cooking, Phoebe came out to eat.
“Wow, Thomas, the food you prepare really fits my appetite. It’s delicious.”
Phoebe ate as Thomas watched favonovel.com from the side. He did not do anything that crossed the boundaries.
After Phoebe took a few bites, favonovel.com suddenly said, “Thomas, my father gave you a jade badge, right?”
“Yes…”
“So, you can freely go to most of the places in House of Vistaria. The problem is, you just come here for a while to cook for me every day. Where can you go?”
Thomas was stunned. What did favonovel.com mean?
Without raising favonovel.com head, Phoebe said, “I’m eating now, and I love to eat alone. You don’t have to accompany me here. You can go wherever you want.”
Thomas felt quite surprised. Phoebe was purposely helping him!
Indeed, if Thomas just came to cook for Phoebe at noon every day, what could favonovel.com do even if favonovel.com had the jade badge?
He still could not go anywhere!
When Phoebe said that, favonovel.com was giving Thomas a chance to move around freely.
Phoebe added, “I’m eating, but I’m neither fast nor slow. I guess I can finish eating the food that you’ve prepared for me. You can take your time.”
Thirty minutes were long enough, and it was sufficient for Thomas to look around many places with his skills. She had made it clear for him, so what else should favonovel.com be worried about?
Thomas did not say anything else either. He just turned around and left.
When Phoebe stared at Thomas’ departing silhouette, favonovel.com muttered, “Well… If Thomas manages Celandine City, it would be better than that pervert, Lord Vedastus. Thomas, you’ve been given the chance. I hope you can work harder…”
