Mary raised an eyebrow, questioning her Chief Knight, Yaxin Matic, beside her.
"What are your thoughts?"
"On the surface, it seems Sting Litt's death has nothing to do with Lian Moria. But Lian Moria is far too cunning; we can't be too quick to trust him."
Chief Knight Yaxin Matic had no love for Lian, especially after Lian had duped him before.
"Indeed. He is a dangerous and cunning man. Things are getting interesting, aren't they?"
A smirk played on Mary's lips. She loved a good challenge.
To her, Lian was fresh prey, and he had piqued her boundless curiosity.
"Lady Mary, Lord Lian requests an audience."
A servant, having hurried in, knelt and announced.
Mary nodded. "Let him in."
Lian entered Mary's palace, holding Nancy Stuart by the hand. Following them was Alex Pool, whose combat power was a mere 5.
Seated on the dais, Mary rested her chin in her hand and noticed the odd way Nancy Stuart was walking.
