Liena and the golden-robbed youth tried to move their heads out of instinct to see the person talking to them but they were frozen, not able to move any parts of their bodies aside from their eyes and mouth.
"Who are you…?" Liena wasn't scared but she naturally acted cautiously, her voice turning soft and kind. There shouldn't be anyone in this world who could match her in strength but the old man behind her was able to freeze her movements as if it was nothing. Liena would be lying if she said she was not anxious at all.
The old man chuckled as he asked her back, "Hehe, does the council tell you anything?"
When Liena heard the question, her heart sank, shock quickly filling her expression. 'Impossible…' She couldn't believe the man but when she analysed the situation, it was really the most likely option as no other than the Council members could reign such power.
