ARC 3 - Blood Queen Part 45

◇

Dion's eyes widened, most probably because of surprise, at what I just said.

"That woman..." Dion muttered softly, perhaps supposedly only to himself.

"So, where is she now?" Dion asked this out loud.

"Where do you think?" I asked in return.

"Is she dead?" He asked again.

"What if she is? What will you do to me?" I asked again.

"So she is dead..." Dion muttered to himself again, reaching a conclusion. Then, he said loudly again, "Nothing. I won't do anything to you."

"Hmm..." I then shrugged. "Why?"

"Because you said you were the one who was attacked. That probably means you were ambushed somewhere, right?" Dion asked in affirmation.

I shrugged again. "Well, yeah. I almost died, even." I said nonchalantly.

"What?" Dion was surprised once again, and his eyes even turned red.

"She stabbed me here." I said while pointing to my heart.

The atmosphere around Dion turned even more serious.
