Two men with abyssal black eyes were sitting opposite each other in the highest spire of the academy.
Only one had solid black pupils, while the other had completely black eyeballs, and one looked far older than the other.
What would truly shock you is that these two were not that far apart in age at all; in fact, you could consider them to be peers. Such was the difference in lifespan between humans and the long-lived vampires.
"So you mean to tell me that Elion Nova is under suspicion of being a heretic who has made a contract with a demon?" Dorian asked.
Maximus, who had a neutral expression on his elderly face, replied, "That is indeed what I said."
Dorian frowned deeply.

When he came to Grimholt looking to meet this boy in Lucius' stead, this was the last thing he had expected to hear.
'This will complicate things.'
But he had to gather more information. He wasn't going to take these people's words too seriously.
