"Lift your head up, Misha."Silence filled the area, and several mouths gaped open as they realized what Arthur was going to do.
All their heads turned towards his parents, and surprisingly their faces remained impassive. But if one looked closely, they could see Nolan's face barely managing to restrain a smirk.
Arthur wasn't aware of anything going around him as his focus kept fixed on Misha, who still had her head bent low even after his words.
Arthur wasn't bothered by this, he had expected this to happen after all.
He couldn't erase the fear of their weapon just by one command.
His eye looked around from the corner at the rest of the Ashblades and finally settled on Gabriel, who was almost about to interfere after seeing Nolan doing nothing.
'She's afraid of them.'
Turning his eye back to Misha, he made a decision to proceed to his next step.
