'T-This was not what I was supposed to say to her. But my mouth-'
The priest quickly tried to shut his mouth, but he could tell it was too late. His secret had been exposed.
"S-See, the thing is…"
The priest tried to explain himself before realising that he could not do anything to improve this situation.
So, he quickly tried to dart away from the princess and Sui.
'Shit! I got exposed. I need to find a patron and gain shelter from them. Since this noble knows magic, the only place I can think of hiding is with a cultist.'
The man ran as fast as he could, but Sui was still faster.
She was about to leave after that man when the princess stopped her.
"Princess, why are you stopping me? We need to go after that man right now and capture him. He knows where the cultists are."
Sui looked at the princess behind her for justification. Her body was ready to sprint after the priest and catch him.
