"The Verdant Omen is reacting!
There is a Corrupted Beast here!"
One of the Crown Prince's men, who was now standing together with the Pope, announced as the Verdant Omen in his hands vibrated without stop, sensing the Power of Corruption near it.
"Oh my."
And seeing that sight, the Crown Prince's grin widened.
"What do we have here, Tower Head Selene?"
"You used the Verdant Omen…
You dare disrespect the Magic Empi-"
"I think we are already past that, aren't we?"
Edric interrupted.
"Yes, I ordered my subordinate to activate the Verdant Omen without your permission, and I will apologize for disrespecting you like that.
But…
We have bigger problems to deal with, don't you think?"
The Crown Prince tilted his head, his grin still stuck on his face.
"The Verdant Omen is reacting.
We have to find what Beast it is reacting to, don't we? After all, this could very well be a safety concern."
"…"
Selene's face darkened at those words, and the Crown Prince didn't stop.
