Chapter 127: Orion, Sophia and the Festival Proper III
The vendor pointed behind her, still chuckling. "Its no trick. And as for who would buy something like this, ask them."
She turned and blinked in shock. A small crowd had gathered, people watching with wide eyes and laughter in their throats. A few called out greetings to Orion, wishing him a good festival, though most were clearly amazed to see him here.
Sophia's ears burned. "You all saw that, didn't you?"
A few voices laughed in response.
Orion smirked. "Experience is the best teacher."
"You could've warned me."
"And ruin the fun?"
She made a sound somewhere between a growl and a sigh, wrapping the half-eaten skewer back with the napkin. "You're impossible."
He inclined his head politely. "So I've been told."
With a huff, Sophia spun and marched off. Orion murmured farewells to the crowd, then followed her, his chuckle still lingering in the air.
