(A Couple Days Later, The Eternal Garden, Mauriss's POV)
A couple days later, despite fully understanding that manipulating Mairon in front of Leo would be nearly impossible, Mauriss still arrived at the Eternal Garden personally while presenting himself like a humble guest visiting old acquaintances.
"Skyshard! Or should I call you God Killer now?
Hahahaha!
How is your finger holding up these days?"
Mauriss asked cheerfully the moment he arrived upon the Eternal Garden, as Leo simply stared toward him coldly without even the slightest trace of amusement visible within his eyes.
'What…? Is he the bastard who cost father a finger?'
Mairon wondered silently, as until this very moment, he genuinely had no idea how Leo lost his finger or what sort of battle it even related to.
"And this must be the young Skyshard himself… the so called rebel king, Mairon Skyshard."
