Archer explained everything he'd been up to when he was with his sister, and by the time he was finished, she was looking at him with wide eyes.
This caused him to laugh before asking. ''What's wrong?''
"You've become more compassionate than in the past. A few years back, you might have ended the noble boy's life," Ella pointed out, her gaze fixed on him with intense blue eyes.
He didn't know how to react but shrugged. ''I don't know, El. I didn't feel the need to kill him like the people who came before. The urge isn't as strong as it was when I evolved years ago.''
''Is it the hearts you eat? Or maybe because you're a Sovereign Mage?''
He answered after thinking for a second. ''I'm not sure, but ever since I became the Shadow Prince, the anger has subsided, but it's still there waiting to surface.''
After speaking, Ella looked confused and clarified. ''So, are you a prince? Or is it more of a title?''
