Chapter 323: Something’s wrong
Chapter Three Hundred-Twenty-Three – Something’s Wrong
Darren expected the visitor to return to Lunaria immediately but instead Zeno asked for a room and fell asleep in it. Darren couldn’t understand this behavior.
He asked Alice to keep watch over him but Alice said something about him didn’t feel right and blatantly disobeyed without giving any other reason.
He really wanted to toss her back to Damancas. A lycan had even crossed the border without Finn reporting so he wanted to believe Zeno didn’t feel like a threat.
"If something’s wrong with him, shouldn’t she say it early to save us—" his voice trailed off when he found a crow, staring at him, intently from outside the window.
He blinked, narrowing his eyes at the creature. It’s eyes were bright red and it seemed to be watching him. He moved to another room with a window.
The crow perched on a tree nearby, still watching him. He opened the window and it flew away. That was odd. Birds usually came to him. "This is suspicious."
And the unnatural eye color that matched Zeno’s. He was aware that Zeno used magic but the one that could manipulate animals... were really rare.
Sir Darren didn’t think he should tell him he could sense his magic and ask him about it. It could be a sensitive topic since Lunaria usually forced things on them.
"Ella, Ella?" he tried to make sure she’s safe in case this Zeno wasn’t to be trusted after all. He sensed her around Alice’s room and exhaled.
