Scarlett simply shrugged, as if she had already expected that answer.
"That's fine," she said. "But I can't stay missing for too long. My grandfather may look calm on the outside, but he worries more than he shows. If too many days pass without any news, he'll start searching."
Those words suddenly reminded Kiara of something important.
Arceus.
He was still in the Leon Imperial Palace — officially as a guest, but in reality, as a political hostage.
And who knows how long Kaelan will stay there with him...
She immediately turned to Juren and spoke to him through their spiritual connection.
*Go to the Leon Imperial Palace. Stay there as Arceus's guest and protect him until I arrive.*
Juren looked at her, slightly surprised, but quickly understood. As long as a Demigod stayed beside Arceus, even the Leon's Emperor wouldn't dare make any reckless moves.
He gave a small nod.
No more words were needed.
