Chapter 942: Chapter 538: Wait, Is This the City of Hope?

,For a fleeting moment, he thought he had misheard. “Sorry”? Could it be that White Elizabeth was apologizing to him, actually uttering the words “I’m sorry”?

For White Elizabeth, this truly was a rare occurrence.

“Logan, it was I who wronged your master. If the truth of the past was really as you say, then indeed, I have no reason to blame your master. I just couldn’t imagine at the time, nor could I accept, that my own father was such a hypocrite, that he, he actually committed such despicable and shameless acts…”

This caused the beliefs that White Elizabeth had held on to for so long to crumble a bit.

She even started to doubt what was real and what was false. Everything she had experienced and upheld, what was it all for?

Seeing the distraught White Elizabeth, Logan, who had felt somewhat derisive at first, found himself at a loss for words.

She may have survived these hundreds of years by clinging to those beliefs. To overturn everything she had known so abruptly was indeed hard to accept.

“Forget it, you’re a pitiful person too. Just be a good Artifact Spirit from now on. It’s good that the misunderstanding is cleared up. After all, you are my Artifact Spirit, and I don’t want you to harbor resentment and cause trouble during alchemy.”

White Elizabeth, her face turning red at his words, hurriedly apologized.

“I’m sorry.”

Then, after wrestling with herself for a while, she confessed another truth.

“Logan, there’s something I’ve hidden for a long time, and I must tell you today. In fact, I am not the Cauldron Spirit. I am just a soul attached to this Furnace Cauldron. I have my own parents. Strictly speaking, I might just be a ghost. I’m sorry for deceiving you for so long.”

“Also, perhaps my father’s death can’t be blamed on Blood Nineteen, but he wasn’t a good person either. His bad reputation is not unfounded. You should still be cautious and not trust him too much.”

After saying this, White Elizabeth quickly transformed and disappeared from his sight.

Logan was slightly stunned, then smiled.

This person really left him with a cliffhanger, not finishing her tale and then leaving the rest of them to deal with the trouble.

He slightly pinched his chin, noncommittal about White Elizabeth’s words.

Blood Nineteen, still Blood Nineteen.

The events of centuries past were just too far away for him, and that period of history had degenerated into the past.

Logan had no interest in delving into that history, nor any interest in being wary of his master because of it.

He only believed in the present, in the everyday moments he shared with his master.

Whether his master was a bad person, he did not know, but he certainly didn’t seem like a good person. However, his master had never done anything wrong to him.

Logan was somewhat protective, especially when it came to those who were kind to him.

Unable to figure out the reasoning behind it all, he shook his head and gave up.

“Anyway, let everything take its natural course. Master, I still choose to trust you. I hope you won’t let me down.”

After speaking, he sighed deeply, a mix of feelings washing over him, along with a new sense of expectation.

The matter with White Elizabeth was concluded for now. His troubles were temporarily resolved, and he went to sleep contentedly.

But early next morning, he was woken up by a persistent knocking at the door.

Logan, slightly irritable from being woken up, grabbed a coat to throw on, carelessly exposing his bare chest, and trudged over to open the door.

“Master, how come you’re back so early?”

He didn’t expect anyone else but Nineteen to visit, assuming it was him returning.

But as soon as he opened the door, he was greeted with a woman’s scream.

“Ah! You, why aren’t you properly dressed?”

Logan fully awoke to the scream and upon seeing it was Snow Wood, was surprised.

This always proud woman had a faint blush spreading across her cheeks, her gaze darting around, pointedly avoiding looking at him.

Seeing this, Logan quickly closed the door and dressed at lightning speed.

When he reopened the door, Snow Wood appeared to have calmed down from her earlier panic, though her eyes still avoided his directly.

The two looked at each other in silence for a moment until Logan broke the quiet.

“Sorry, I thought it was my master.”

“But does your room see visitors that often, Young Master Logan? Do you always go about so carelessly?”

Snow Wood frowned skeptically, not buying his explanation.

Logan’s brow furrowed. Without mentioning he was planning to leave, he found another excuse.

“Sorry, no one is supposed to visit me lately. It was indeed my oversight, I’ll be more careful next time.”

Snow Wood’s expression eased, seemingly not wanting to dwell on the issue any further.

“Alright, let’s leave it at that. Since you put it this way, I’ll let bygones be bygones.”

Logan:…

Indeed, it was this woman who had appeared unexpectedly, so why was he the one apologizing in the end?

He touched his nose.

Forget it, after all, she’s a woman. Why quibble with her?

“Miss Snow, why did you seek me out? As far as I remember, I haven’t told anyone that I’m staying here. I even specifically instructed the City Lord to keep my whereabouts a secret, didn’t I?”

His biggest worry was encountering her, and indeed, their meeting was no coincidence.

Her timely arrival was too accurate to be an accident.

When confronted with this question, Snow Wood’s gaze shifted uneasily, a classic sign of guilt.

“You, why do you ask? Anyway, I have my ways.”

Logan’s gaze darkened slightly; he disliked things being out of his control, secrets kept from him.

It involved his safety in staying undercover, and he had to get a clear answer.
