Warlock Ch 266. A Rare Animal In A Cage
Damian barely kept himself from sighing in relief.
Cassius inclined his head. "Thank you."
The officials gave a final, lingering glance at Damian before dismissing them. As they left the chamber, stepping back into the hallways of the Sanctum, Damian exhaled loudly.
"Well, that was fun," he muttered.
Cassius shot him a look. "You got off easy."
"Sure, if 'easy' means being stared at like a rare animal in a cage."
Cassius smirked. "Congratulations, apprentice. You're officially a Rank A warlock."
Damian huffed. "Great."
Cassius raised an eyebrow. "That doesn't sound like someone who just got a promotion."
Damian ran a hand through his hair, exhaling slowly. "Yeah, well… I'm not exactly thrilled about this place."
Cassius gave him a knowing look. "I figured. You've been glancing around like you expect someone to stab you in the back."
