"Don't you think… don't you think that he looks and feels too much like a Spiritual now?"
Lord Emberheart's eyes widened. His head subconsciously snapped toward Leonel, who stood in the far-off distance, high in the skies like a deity overlooking the world.
The more he looked, the more his heart trembled. Soon, his hands were shaking not much unlike his wife's.
None of them would care if Leonel was a Spiritual or not. It wouldn't make much of a difference, and if there was a difference at all, it would be the fact that it would make their people much easier to convince in the future. After all, they had spent years spreading propaganda against humans despite the fact that they were actually humans themselves as well.
The problem, as per always, was the underlying truth that would likewise have to be true if this was the reality. As the saying went… the devil was in the details.
