Third Person's POV
The question had lingered in Ethan's mind for some time, like a shadow trailing his every thought.
He had pushed it aside as he had been occupied with survival and rising threats but the pieces were falling into place now.
That silver crown, the overwhelming aura, that so-called Eternal Throne… It all pointed to one terrifying possibility.
But he exhaled and shook the thought away.
'Forget it, why am I getting distracted from the main task I have to do now?'
Turning his gaze to the unconscious prince, Ethan placed both hands on the sides of his head.
His skin was pale while faint tremors still ran beneath it.
Ethan's eyes narrowed as these were the signs of an unsteady soul. Taking note of this, he didn't delay anymore and reached inward.
He held his eyelids and forced his eyes open.
Looking into his pupilless eyes, he activated the first spell: Soul Veil Manipulation.
Just as he did that, the world around Ethan dimmed to a hush.
