"Care to share what this is all about? How did you know they were here?" Vonn asked, his voice laced with concern. The gravity of the situation, based on how Vienna sounded, couldn't be taken lightly.
Vonn's tendency to overthink had instilled in him a habit of taking everything seriously. He wasn't sure if it was purely for survival, but with the way his fate had shifted, he knew things wouldn't be simple.
Vienna, on the other hand, despite her occasional lightheartedness, had a life far from ordinary.
From being respectfully addressed as "young lady" by a random alchemy shop owner to holding the status of an important figure with a unique talent for magic—capable of using mana without a fully developed Mana Heart—nothing about her was simple.
Vonn could see this clearly, which was why, with the mention of a cult that had her so on edge, he couldn't just let it slide.
Concern etched across his face, he reached for Vienna's hands.
