I left my shop around noon and made my way home, expecting the breakfast Mom had promised. When I got there, the place was empty. She and Anna were gone—probably off shopping. I ate quickly, locked up the house, and decided to head over to Asher's.
He wasn't home either.
I checked his favorite haunt, Genzai Innovations, but they'd said he'd just left.
Money really does make a man restless, huh?
I'd hoped to ask him about designing my company logo—he's annoyingly good at that stuff—but I guess that'll have to wait until he's broke and bored.
With nothing better to do, I figured I might as well check in on the Priestess at the Divine Church.
It took me thirty minutes to get there. I entered, only to find Seraphina deep in sermon, her voice carrying through the sacred halls as she spoke about divine protection and the blessings of their goddess. The place was packed. Left with no choice, I sat through the entire hour, fighting the urge to fall asleep.
