"I saw Arielle's body glow. And… the snow around her melted to reveal green grass."
"Green grass? Did you see wrong?" asked William. He accepted the free drink as Ronan handed him a glass of whiskey.
"Green grass is not easy to grow in cold fields like this," William continued.
"I don't benefit at all from lying. And the priest said there was no mana flow in the kid's body either."
"We must return to the palace immediately to consult Priest Elis on this matter."
"I also think so but not in this condition," said Ronan as he gazed at the unconscious Arielle.
"We also can't ask Priest Elis to leave the Cathedral," William replied and received a nod of agreement from Ronan.
He paused when he saw the king's condition and stood up quickly after sipping his second glass of whiskey.
"Clean yourself first. Let me take care of the child and her family," William said, then left the room.
