The Saintess couldn't help but let out a snicker, "Tell me, are you trying to be mysterious, or are you just at the end of your rope?"
"You have a good grasp of idioms," you said with a smile to the Saintess. "I wonder if you've heard a favorite saying of our people: 'long hair, short wit'?"
"Hmph, enough nonsense... Hmm?"
The Saintess swiftly turned her head to look behind her and saw that the palace gate had somehow opened on its own!
"Clip-clop! Clip-clop!"
The sound of horseshoes!
A burst of loud horseshoe sounds approached from a distance!
"Not good!" The Saintess turned back to glare at you fiercely and scolded, "You shameless creature, to save your own skin, you actually activated the Array!"
You laughed, a laugh both sinister and sleazy, "It's better to share joy with others than to enjoy it alone."
