Chapter 568: Lily
Melantha smiled coldly, lilac eyes glowing with a bright blue light. “You may have gone unnoticed by the others, but I see you bright as day.” Electricity crackled at her fingertips. “So, I’ll only ask once more. What are you doing here?”
Lily’s frown melted away and her red lips broke into a smirk. “What gave me away?”
“You were never hidden. The moment you walked in with the Noir girl was enough.”
“Ah… You’re a True Blue. I see… you must be Melantha. I should have made the connection when I heard Lady Holo say you were her sibling.” Lily put a finger to her chin and cocked her head to the side, as if in deep thought, “The little hand gesture you made when I first entered the room— You informed Lady Holo immediately. Then this whole little trip to the kitchen was a ruse from the beginning? Clever.”
“Clever enough to wonder why one of your kind is traipsing around in the hall of the Noirs.”
“My kind? The perception of Clarity magic is keen, but I’ve never known a True Blue to be capable of discerning an entire ‘kind’ with a simple glance.”
“I know exactly what you are.”
“You are aware of my kindred’s history,” Lily said somberly.
“I am. As to how one of you survived or how you ended up in the Ebon Realm is a mystery you will answer.” Lightning crackled across Melantha’s arms.
