"No, no, no, there's absolutely no common language between us." The response that suddenly came from behind didn't surprise Catherine even though she had not known there was someone behind her, but without thinking too hard, she could guess who the person with the voice that had just appeared behind her was. Laughing delicately, the owner of the voice said, "They are closer to those nobles who play politics, manipulating people's hearts with overt means, while we prefer to lurk in the shadows, where conspiracy and darkness are our lives. So, please, don't lump us together."
"Have you completed your mission for today?" Catherine turned around with her usual expression, speaking as calmly as if catching up with an old friend, "It's earlier than I expected."
"It was a simple task." The voice was cold, but it held a hint of warmth, seemingly fond of Catherine's casual demeanor, "There wasn't much to do."
