Unaware of the anomaly in his friend, Jash grew impatient while sitting in the carriage with Caera.
"Why is it taking so long?" he grumbled in annoyance.
"Calm down, will you?" Caera replied with a frown.
She didn't like his hastiness one bit, wondering what had happened to this joykill brother of hers.
Meanwhile, Jash had actually planned his actions after arriving right on time.
'Ugh. If the banquet is in full swing, I can blend in with the crowd and pass the time all the while confirming the truth.'
Unlike Amael or the other guests, who were either forced to or had purposefully arrived early, Jash had no intention of doing so.
In fact, his parents weren't even in the same carriage. They would arrive even later than him.
—Scrik!
Jash pushed aside the curtains blocking the outside view, resigned to find out the cause for the delay.
