Lithira paused, her spoon hovering midway to her mouth as she processed Lucien's question. "But... I'm already here?" she replied, a hint of confusion in her voice.
Lucien regarded her with a serious expression, his gaze unwavering. "You are, but you didn't plan to stay for a long time, right?" he pressed, his tone gentle yet firm.
Her cheeks flushed slightly, and she averted her gaze, feeling a pang of nervousness. "Well... I don't think I will stay here without you," she admitted softly
Lucien furrowed his brow, his thoughts racing as he considered the situation. He tried to activate the new feature a moment ago—the open database of villagers.
The feature allows him to look at the villagers' status without him checking on them one by one.
However, to his surprise, he didn't see Lithira's name listed among the villagers. Even when he activated his All-Seeing Eyes, her name didn't appear above her head like it did for others.
