When Kyran's 'aquamarine' eyes fixed on Zuri, she felt a chill run down her spine. It was as if his gaze alone could see through her, causing her mind to reel in fear.
"I... I was only—."
"Please ignore her, Void Master. I apologize for her rude words. I am guilty of not educating her well."
Kyran regarded the two with a complicated expression. When he questioned Zuri, Kyran was genuinely asking. He did not expect the two to react like this.
"I am curious about what she said. That's why I'm asking. Don't overthink it."
"But..."
"Well?" Kyran asked Zuri again.
It caused Zuri to look at him in confusion. But she answered, "I... father is still the Patriarch of the Montgomeray Family. Though our family cannot compare to the Courtenay or the Lumley Families, given how they all have a Magus, we are now part of the Three Noble Families and have the Spirits' support. So, please don't treat my father like he is some lowly servant."
"Zuri!"
