Chapter 131: Liars Must Swallow a Thousand Fingers
“Even though I make the rules, we can’t keep Mephilia waiting too long, right? I’ll head back now.” Liana quickly stood up. She had been so engrossed in listening to Avira talk about the Elf Forest that she’d lost track of time. When she came to her senses, she realized it was already eight-thirty, a full half hour late!
It’s fine, it was just an accident. Mephilia probably wouldn’t mind such a small thing.
As Liana extended her hand to open the door, she noticed a red line appear on her wrist, identical to the one she had seen when she encountered Sephirena.
Was Sephirena coming to kill her?
No, that wasn’t possible. Besides, what exactly was this red line? Liana had never figured it out. Could it be a secret technique of the elves?
Liana wanted to ask Avira, who was behind her, but if this was an elven secret technique, wouldn’t admitting she had seen Sephirena expose her?
Wait, Liana suddenly realized something—Avira had just said that Sephirena had been abandoned by nature, so she shouldn’t be able to use magic related to the elvenkind. This proved that the red line wasn’t elf magic.
“What’s wrong, Princess Liana?” Avira asked, puzzled by Liana’s motionless stance.
Liana turned around, raising her hand and pinching the red line. “Princess Avira, can you see this thing in my hand?”
“Something in Princess Liana’s hand?” Avira looked at Liana with confusion, tilting her head. “Is Princess Liana going to perform some kind of trick?”
“You can’t see this line in my hand?” Liana moved to Avira’s side, lifting the red line and placing it before Avira. “Really, you can’t see it?”
Avira still shook her head. “Is Princess Liana trying to convey something?”
