Mr. Hanged Man is ready… Lumian took out his golden pocket watch and opened it to take a look.
He could summon the Armored Shadow at any moment. His only concern was that it might pose a danger. Summoning it without a good reason could lead to an attack or a curse. However, with The Hanged Man—the Major Arcana card holder of the Tarot Club—present, there was no need to worry about such matters.
The uncertainty now lay in Franca's availability. After all, she had to translate.
Lumian burned the letter and left Auberge du Coq Doré, heading straight for Apartment 601 at 3 Rue des Blouses Blanches.
"Why are you here so late?" Franca clearly wasn't the early-to-bed type.
Lumian glanced at Jenna, who had just finished removing her heavy makeup, and smiled at Franca.
"Do you have time tonight? We can summon the Armored Shadow again and ask it questions."
