"You can come out, I know you're there," Elish began calmly.
He had sensed the presence for some time but chose to remain focused on his slave's battle. Now that it was over, he couldn't afford to leave any loose ends, especially considering that their stalker was likely behind this incident.
"My, my, looks like you're more capable than I gave you credit for," the mystery person remarked, stepping forward.
Emerging from the darkness, the figure drew closer to Elish and the others. Though Elish had already seen the person clearly, now they were visible to everyone.
The individual wore a sadistic smile and exuded confidence, as though Elish and his companions were at their mercy.
He appeared to be a young man, perhaps in his mid-twenties, with golden brown hair and matching eyes. His attire was even more extravagant and ostentatious than Elish's.
"You are..." Elish began, slowly recognizing the face.
It was the royal from the Auction!
