Damein sat leisurely on the chair with his back leaning and his eyes closed. One would think that he was resting but Clamstone was not a fool so was Carmen.
"Since you have already announced that you are the culprit, you would be punished to end the panic you have created this time." Carmen spoke in an irritated voice. "I should punish you for ruining the festival too. The hunting was canceled after the churchmen were burnt. The nobles did want to be alone in the woods.
And now, the choice of Saintess for the ceremony could be canceled because you decided to burn the marquis! Why did you leave him alive to run his mouth amok? That is not your style?" asked Carmen, though it looked like he was only grumbling because of the canceling of events. There was an edge in his voice when he asked the last line.
Silent Clamstone went stiff too, making Damien open his eyes.
