Capítulo 39: Calculating Prospects

'Damn, she's good!'

Rey flipped open the book on Goblins; one that had an entire chapter dedicated to the Hobgoblins.

Alicia had given him exactly what he was looking for.

'I should have started talking to her from day one. She's very useful…' Rey smiled as he went over the book.

The girl known as Alicia White was someone he never thought he would really speak to.

They had actually attended the same Middle School—same as Billy—but Rey didn't think she would remember that detail.

They were mostly strangers, even in High School.

It was only fairly recently that they started speaking, and from what he could see, she was a very nice person.

'Why are so many rumors flying around lately? She's clearly not that kind of person.'

Of course, Rey had no intention of actively defending Alicia the way Billy would.

The both of them had an understanding, and their relationship did not extend beyond the four walls of the library.
