"How did you kill them?"
Lucian's cold voice echoed throughout the entire chamber, instinctively making Kanna freeze momentarily.
The atmosphere inside the room shifted heavily, and the temperature increased, making the space around him hotter—as if the fury inside him had begun leaking into the surroundings themselves.
Feeling Lucian's hollow crimson eyes upon her, Kanna's heartbeat unconsciously quickened.
But instantly, she regained her composure.
Her expression flattened once more as she calmly repeated everything—how she had killed them, how the D-Rank human had been riddled with holes, and how the other E-Rank human had been crushed within the shadow tentacles until he became a gruesome mixture of flesh, shattered bones, and blood.
Her voice remained flat while explaining it all—like a cold doctor explaining the operation or their failure to rescue the patient.
Lucian heard each word clearly, but his anger did not lessen—not even slightly.
It just worsened.
