Ch. 145: Rumination [4]

In the dimly lit hallway, a woman with vermillion hair cascaded down her shoulder stood, her back against the wall near a door.

Boredom was etched on her face as she examined her freshly painted nails. 

"Huaaa!!"

"Justice for God Chrono!"

Upon hearing it, Annelise couldn't help but sneered wryly at the roaring chant that reverberated behind the door.

Suddenly, the door swung open and a man with long black hair emerged. 

He was dressed in a flowing white robe that swept the ground with every step he took.

Annelise straightened herself and greeted him with a nod. 

"Father."

The man returned her greeting with a smile. 

"My daughter."

Together, they made their way down the dimly lit hallway, their footsteps echoing against the stone walls. 

As a thought kicked in, he posed a question.

"So, how is His Highness the Second Prince?"

"Mentally shaken, just as planned."
