Luan remained silent, but he took a step back, seemingly sensing something.
The lady looked at him with interest and intrigue. She might have shot him down due to his weakness, but it definitely took someone strong enough to wield such a powerful treasure.
'If I can successfully bind him under a curse...'
A man appeared beside her at that moment. He ha silky black hair, black eyes and skin half as fair as Luan.
He observed the lady, who was observing Luan intently, then he spoke.
"I've noticed your interest in the newcomer, and I can't help but wonder if it's a good thing or a bad thing for us."
The lady snorted lightly. "Anthony, why don't you go back to your post of a glorified watchdog. What are you doing here?"
The man didn't seem offended in the slightest by what had been said. He just looked at the lady for a second. "Alice, why are you so invested in a newcomer that has no other noticeable ability other than his artifact?"
