Chapter 81: Crossed The Line

Since the house was surrounded by an illusion, any outsiders would only see a batch of trees in its place. The illusion would also deter away attention in its direction to ward off any unwanted visitors. That's the reason why animals and monsters couldn't disturb it with their aimless wandering.

Arthur opened the window and looked outside. It was eerily quiet. However, flying figures could be seen now and then. Arthur looked at them and realized they were the silver-masked cloaks of the royal family.

"You didn't answer my question," Amelia said after standing behind him. Arthur ignored her. "I said…" She tried to ask again. It was about the reason the royal family was here.

"Have you not interfered in my matters enough? Do you think I would help you get stronger if you keep this attitude?" Arthur snapped at her.

Amelia closed her mouth, indignant that Arthur was being too tyrannical. Still, the temptation of getting stronger stopped her from complaining.
