"You want to go where?"
Luca blinked, thinking he must have heard wrong.
Before leaving, Adam had arrived at Luca's place in Lords' Borough.
By now, he knew that his friend was a descendant of House Claudius. So it wasn't surprising that he could afford such a villa in such an affluent and well-protected neighborhood.
In fact, the villa may be affluent and posh to Adam, but to Luca, it was perhaps just another house in one of the many worlds of the Imperium.
"You heard me," Adam said as he nodded at the steward who brought him a cup of coffa. "You want to come with me or nah?"
Luca glanced at Adam suspiciously. For the past three months, he had gone missing. When Luca saw him again, there was a stench of blood around him. And now, out of the blue, he was asking him to accompany him to Fortune's End.
Meanwhile, the moment Adam tasted the coffa, his eyes lit up. "Nine hells, where did you get this?"
"Don't know," Luca replied absentmindedly. "I think it's from Mat'Ka."
