Conspiracy [3]
"I want to speak to the Temple Master."
Karlen barely acknowledged it.
This happened while he was being rushed back to his room after they teleported back.
"Hey, did you hear me? I need to speak to the Temple Master."
"I understand, but now is not the time. I must inform the Temple Master of the attack. He is not at the temple at the moment, and for now, it is better for you to remain in your room. Please be patient for a little while. I am sure he will grant you an audience when the situation is calmer."
It was a small attack that barely affected anything, but it felt more like a warning shot than anything else.
It may not have been any real harm towards the three tournament representatives, but the fact that they were targeted at all meant that someone knew about the temples' plans and wanted to interfere.
Karlen's rushed attitude didn't come from the fact that Damien was almost harmed.
