Chapter 54 - 54: Monologue
Without saying a word, Sigrún stepped toward Thalia as blue fire crackled violently around her. But just as she was about to reach the annoying red-haired woman, Eleonora's voice resonated in the air, sounding with a tone laden with anger and murderous intent.
"Don't play Thalia's game, Sigrún. Let's focus on what's important: the Leifs are yours, I'll take the Xuanling, and together we'll take down the Blackthorn."
Upon hearing Eleonora's words, Sigrún looked at her for a moment, almost as if to confirm they were really going to do it. Shortly after, the blue fire disappeared from her body as she approached her sworn sister to start planning their revenge. But this was interrupted again by Thalia, who asked in an exasperated voice.
"Are you really thinking of attacking the three great factions without consulting the director first?"
"Hmph, don't talk to me about that old bastard; I already have scores to settle with him." Sigrún commented with disdain and continued with her planning, which caused a vein to throb on Thalia's forehead. She added angrily.
"Stop being fools! You know perfectly well that the director's solution was the best. You already took a gigantic slice out of the Xuanling and the Blackthorn, and they will be dealt with by the court. Besides, the director left you the Leifs to deal with. Be content with that and stop creating problems for the faction."
Like lionesses ready for battle, Eleonora and Sigrún turned their gazes full of ill intent toward Thalia, who smiled slyly before commenting in a haughty tone.
"Otherwise, I'll be forced to tell Erik what you're doing."
Upon hearing the threat from the irritating redhead, Sigrún and Eleonora couldn't help but widen their eyes in surprise. They glared at Thalia with hatred for a while longer but eventually stopped looking at her. A beautiful teapot and a pair of elegantly decorated teacups appeared on the table. They poured some tea and sipped with elegance and delicacy, as if nothing were happening.
"Hehehe, who would have thought that the pair of wild beasts of the faction would be so easy to tame." Thalia commented with a disdainful expression toward the famous troublemakers.
"Shut up, Thalia, or I'll seriously throw you out," Sigrún said with disgust, continuing to sip from her cup without even turning to look at Thalia.
