Chapter 508: Battle of Nerves (1)
As I looked at Luca’s face, filled with despair, I knew my victory was certain.
He had realized that the star which had made him ugly, the star he had created himself, had led him to collapse without even managing a false victory.
Though I did end up accumulating some debt with Yuden in the process... well, that’s something I can sort out with Benedict if I explain it properly.
"Can I hear the story too?"
I had intended to leave the cleanup to others and take a brief rest, but the voice that came from behind sent a chill down my spine.
The first queen consort of the kingdom—Kavaty Soladin.
She was someone I never wanted to meet and, at the same time, a person who I absolutely couldn't afford to be caught off guard by.
She was standing at the top of the clock tower’s stairs, offering a fake smile.
...How did she even get here!?
The area around the clock tower was sealed by the trickster fox, so only those who had permission should have been able to enter!
Even if she broke through by force, it’s unbelievable that the fox or the grandfather didn't notice her!
<...Sorry, I didn't notice.>
