When Lord Reine arrived at the entrance of the Sword Bearers Branch, he saw a luxurious carriage already parked at the door.
A middle-aged man with a bushy mustache and hunting attire had been waiting by the carriage early on. Seeing Reine emerge, Fabien greeted him with a smile and took a few enthusiastic steps forward, saying,
"Lord Reine, excuse the intrusion. I am Fabien from the Yakesen Auction House."
"There may have been some misunderstandings in our communication before."
"Oh? You try to kill me twice, and you call that a misunderstanding?" Reine waved his hand and cut off the other man's words.
Fabien, facing Reine's words, showed an awkward expression, but he quickly explained his purpose:
"Cough... That is precisely why we hold you in such high regard. Drake himself has come all the way from the Imperial City, and he is right next door at Mona Cafe. Would you consider granting us the honor of discussing this over?"
