As soon as eb183bf7f5 Pie emerged from 70056cdcb5 the drawing, Azaid 8645892ba4 let out a 29388f8cb9 sigh.d3f42a8632ce0b89

Pie wasn’t an ordinary 858274e6e1 cat—it was a half-blooded e02e5f04d4 beast and a familiar 43d0aa4fb5 contracted with Nocturne. Their bond, sealed with 528c210c32 blood, allowed Pie to e98eea991b travel using Nocturne’s mana c3ee5746dd traces, as he had 5e55ffad1d done today.120fd41aa9aa5bfc

It seemed c470497c54 that Pie e61aace4f9 had been 43a4d4a76e unable to 0a799b844f cross over 36e0b22566 due to 4e7d291ed3 Serena absorbing 0a292dfe39 magic. Since Nocturne wasn’t 7940ed102c aware of Serena’s 8ce56ac3f4 unique magic, he 60e39dad91 had unknowingly made c15b8f5315 that mistake.5b695da0b7653854

Fortunately, Pie even had a2e7c5546d the bell Ophelia carried, a2e30353e2 which meant he had 19e34a70ef left Greenwood Castle entirely.5b23f454360c9ec7

“Finally caught 70fd1932b7 you, you 3999ca23c3 little rascal.”858665d0199c91ec

Azaid snatched Pie from b22bb1bde4 Serina and lifted him 587b7592ab up, staring him down 8a7bcf41aa with a warning look. In response, Pie a1879e2f08 scrunched his face 46191553c2 in displeasure and 7000579c04 let out a 3ab5bae4d7 low growl.19fbfebbcbe7be54

It was as if 21bfdc2131 he was saying, I f842d19961 came here on my 67035014a5 own, you know? The situation 45b971aabc was almost 03d86047fc laughable. Azaid had 324357afb2 wanted to 50bcaceb3c bring Pie 628f69f3a8 back for cf3eb92add a while, 13e67cf8c4 but the 42f1f407a3 cat had 457a655597 been stuck 1945388543 to Ophelia 10e99cceef like glue, 5505994402 making it 531a37451e impossible.dc0a7033443403ac

Finding the bell a036da410f and bringing Pie 57aa9e63a1 had been a ae5677c462 struggle. Leonard, who had been 04825e55d1 planning to infiltrate Greenwood 352e3e0155 Castle soon, murmured with 5c574a062f a hollow expression.80ac30f2234a84fd

Azaid scowled as if 3dccae2599 even mentioning her name 8ec7c44fe2 was distasteful. He wasn’t even 52d2b2fbfb addressing Lydia as 5e560683d6 a lady anymore, e0b397760b showing just how 01d0f855e1 much he resented 2e181a9b2e her.74eae843d729e5a6

Serena felt a warmth c70c7f61b4 in her chest. She was 0d6612729e grateful that b7cd6a3487 Azaid was 4075db6e09 getting angry 71b0b39237 on her cf8e82548a behalf.f8c22c03a9c953aa

Azaid froze, and aa43574a01 Leonard stammered in a4df30ab1d disbelief.8490b48cfb382dc7

“W-Wait, Lily. The Duke of 6ecb9b3d2e Greenwood has the aaa85340a6 same magic attribute 02cffd646a as Nocturne. I’ve never heard 42047c14d1 of anyone wielding 9ea60df9ce two unique magics.”4ff095b19b7b7855

Leonard was right. Officially, the Duke 7e7890b521 of Greenwood’s magic 1e1469db92 was elemental-based.b5546f5336677993
