Sana gasped, staggering back a step. Her face turned pale. "How did you find it? You didn't even touch me?!"
"I knew the moment you winked at me like a fish trying to seduce a shark," Kent said dryly. "Your foundation is collapsing. If I weren't who I am, you'd be crippled in a few years."
Tears brimmed at the corners of her eyes, but she forced a grin. "Then… name your price, Human healer. Mana pearls? Sacred shells? Loon family's water cannon inscriptions?"
"Spirit stones? Technique scrolls?"
"Do I look like a merchant?" Kent asked, walking past her and sitting on the bench again.
Her voice dropped, sultry now, desperate. "Then… a night with me. Just one. I'm still beautiful..."
Kent burst out laughing, his voice echoing off the coral walls.
"You truly don't know shame, do you?" he said, still chuckling. "You think I'd touch someone who doesn't even respect herself enough to come with dignity? I wouldn't take you even if you offered me your entire family wealth!"
