It was the end of line for Gyff. The fire orb was illuminating a small room, with a single exit corridor, from where he just came. Whatever was behind was getting closer. Gyff went to the opposite side of the room and waited for the creature. A silver golem showed up and rushed against him with great speed.
Its speed was way smaller than the dagger wielder. The orb was at the center illuminating the entire small squared area. Gyff dodged left while the golem's arm hitted the wall. He did avoided, with mastery, the punches of the golem, while thinking on a plan to escape. Until the golem hitted the fire orb, extinguishing it, making his next punch unpredictable.
The blow knockedback Gyff against the wall at the right of the corridor. The Golem rushed on the direction of his enemy, attacking mercilessly. Just to get buried by stones. The path was free again. He soon found the exit. Now he just had to discover what was inside the flask and how much he was going to earn with this.
Meanwhile, somewhere else, Tsumomo was drinking her tea while being questioned.
- Oh, Mr. Konvaa. You know that this is not something you should be asking.
- Even if I would like to pay you a visit?
- A good investigator like you know how to find me easily.
- I believe that you would be at the Yue Liang house, but I might be wrong about that...
- Just tell me what you want. You know authorities could always count with me. - Tsumomo took a bit of her tea.
- We are look for the Sparkyns thief, but we know how troublesome it is to enter a tea house.
- Oh my, have a little bit of tea, investigator. It might inspire you. - Tsumomo drinked another bit of tea.
- This is not a joke, Tsumomo.
- I know. - She complimented someone that was just passing by then turned back to the conversation.
- Will you cooperate?
Tsumomo looked briefly to Konvaa and closed her eyes slowly as she drank another bit of tea. Konvaa left the table, and the mind of the artist started working like she was playing a game of chess.
