"Who's eavesdropping there?" Reine's eyes turned sharp as he looked toward a dark corner of the room.
Ever since he entered the room, he had sensed a faint presence there. At first, he thought it might be some sort of secret guard from the Habus family.
But after giving it some thought, he realized that was unlikely.
Because in the fierce battles of the past two days, he had not seen any appearances of these so-called 'Shadow Guards'.
That meant, even if there were any, their numbers would be extremely limited and they should be closely guarding the severely injured Count Habbs.
"Heh, such keen perception. Indeed, Grant's death by your hand was no fluke."
A voice sounded within the room.
However, this voice seemed to be coming from all around, echoing as if from several corners at once, making it impossible to pinpoint the speaker's location.
Grant?
Reine immediately realized the origin of this person.
He had thought the person belonged to the Black Flame Cult.
