By the time the group entered the restaurant, the last dregs of adrenaline filtered out of Peony’s system. It left her feeling drained but allowed her mind to finally unwind. While the battle wasn’t the first harrowing situation or fight she had been in, she was still unused to fighting Arms Masters as well as fighting alongside others.

The restaurant was a surprise but not an unwelcome one. After ordering a plate of chicken fajitas, she took it upon herself to break the ice. “So, Callie, you told me my power reminded you of a fellow Arms Master. Qingshe, right? You said she was a defector. What was she like?” She asked with a smile only slightly dimmed by her fatigue.
