Chapter 1461 - Old and New Friends (Part 1)

Her long legs and soft curves had made the noble dame attractive even during their first meeting, when she wore a grey prison jumpsuit, let alone now that she wore makeup and a gorgeous evening dress.

"Nindra Luce? Is that you?" Lith asked.

"Yes, I am. Do I know you?" She replied with a voice as surprised as Lith's, trying to remember how could have she forgotten about meeting an Archmage.

'Right. You forgot about Red but you still remember about her.' Solus said with a sneer. 'Does it have anything to do with having seen her naked?'

'No, I just remember my patients and students that I met multiple times, whereas I always feel free to forget about random guys who stand in the background while I fight.' Lith replied.

'Prove it.' The jealousy in her voice surprised them both.

'I remember the nice overweight lady as well, Niha Zeir, and that asshole of Garith Senti.' He said.

"Yes, you do. We met in peculiar circumstances back when I was this tall and I wore a plague doctor mask." Lith's exploits had long become public, making the revelation of his active role during Kandria's plague old news.

"Back then, you called me doctor and invited me to visit you in Kandria. Unfortunately, my travels never brought me there again."

"Wait. Aren't you Archmage Lith Verhen?" Nindra had noticed him when the valet had announced his coming.

"Correct."

"The same Archmage Verhen who turned nineteen just a while ago?" She said while turning as red as her dress, to the point that it was hard to guess where the fabric finished and the skin started.

"Correct again." Lith nodded.

"Doesn't that mean that I- you know, when you were still-"

"A fourth-year student at the White Griffon." Lith finished the phrase for Nindra to avoid her any further embarrassment.

Nindra suddenly became as pale as a ghost as she realized that seven years back, she had made her move on a twelve years old instead of on a short, charming, talented Healer.

She saw the ground coming closer as if Mogar was swallowing her but it was actually her knees buckling up since the planet had no care for her embarrassment nor for that of anyone else.

Lith grabbed Nindra by the waist, helping her to stand and drawing a lot of curious looks since they were basically holding each other to keep Nindra from falling.

"Faluel, this is Nindra Luce, the overseer of Kandria's branch of the Mage Association. Great Mage Luce, this is Faluel Metina Riseta Nyxdra, my date for tonight." Lith said, hoping to relieve enough of her stress that she could stand up on her own.

"Nice to meet you." Faluel gave her a small curtsy before offering Nindra her hand.

The Great Mage shook it, but she remained glued to Lith as all the raw emotions for seven years back resurfaced.

"The pleasure is all mine." She replied while trying to fix the mess that her brain was.
