"Brother Lucien, aren't you getting tired?"
"Hmm? Are you now concerned with me?"
"I'm always concerned about your health."
"Of course. After all, I am your favorite cousin."
If you say so. Then can you—"
"No."
"But you have to save your mana too. So release—"
"No. That's an order from your father so I cannot disobey it."
"Have you forgotten you're the Crown Prince of the Lastoval Kingdom?"
"But I'm in the Vestia Kingdom. So I can consider that you're father is the most powerful man here."
"You're talking nonsense now. Just remove this barrier—"
"Little duckling, no means no."
"Ugh!"
To her irritation, Penelope kicks the barrier twice. But of course, she cannot even make a small dent in it since the barrier around her is made of pure mana. To show that she's starting to get mad, Penelope also hit the barrier with her hand but it feels like she is only hitting a wall made of cotton.
