"Demons don't attack temples…" Lucian paused, inhaling deeply before looking at her.
"You seem to know how to fight demons, wield a sword like a knight, yet you don't know this? It's quite basic."
Cynthia looked up at him, but no answer came to her. Whatever she said would sound suspicious. Having lived years in Selvarys in her past life, she knew better than anyone how women were treated in the country. Although Eldoria wasn't open to women's independence, it wasn't uncommon for women to do as they pleased. That was another reason she had always been a subject of criticism from the nobles in Selvarys.
Hearing no reply from the young lady, Lucian turned away.
"Let's head to the temple, then we'll return to the estate with Princess Arisia."
"I won't go," Cynthia said, not following him.
Lucian didn't turn to look at her.
"Do as you please."
With that, his figure slowly disappeared into the dark alley.
