The moment lingered, heavy with tension. Remedy hadn't just forced her way past security, she had defeated Cornelia's secretary, someone who rarely failed. That alone justified her presence here. But it wasn't brute strength that caught Cornelia's attention. It was control.
Remedy hadn't relied on reckless power. She had executed every move with precision, revealing herself not only as a supreme master, but as someone wielding two supreme spirits. That alone was abnormal. Almost impossible. A clear sign of a divine spirit bloodline.
And yet… she was human.
That detail alone made her dangerous.
Cornelia leaned back slightly, her sharp eyes narrowing as she studied Remedy more carefully. A human possessing such a bloodline was rare enough. But one bold enough to walk into her domain, challenge her authority, and now propose terms? That crossed into something else entirely.
Interest.
