Pierre wanted to know more. Such kind of military activity was happening for the first time on the borders of the town. "That is strange," he commented.
Gary sipped the beer and said, "What is it that you want to know?" He looked outside and then narrowed his eyes. "It is rumored that Niiya is a jilted lover. Now I don't know much but his lover was granddaughter of Ed." He turned his gaze to Pierre. "Do you remember Ed?"
Pierre's mind became blank, as if it had stopped functioning. All blood drained out of his face. "Y- yes, I remember him well."
Gary chugged the contents of the beer can. He called the waitress for another can. He continued, "Niiya was in love with her. I forget her name—some Arianna. I heard that she left him and married another one of your fellows, a male from the Werewolf Realm. Niiya hasn't been able to get over with the fact."
