Chapter 1729: The Path of a Conjurer: Witches and Warlocks

"So you need more time. That's what you want to say, right?"

A harsh, aged voice came through the communication channel Kayara had opened to update her senior in the Helenbora Coven about her situation.

"Yes," Kayara replied patiently.

"Eren is a lot more crafty than I had initially given him credit for. It seems he's not as interested in me anymore. I have to build rapport with him, make him drop his guard. Only then can I proceed with the plan," she explained, knowing the conversation was audio-only.

"Alright," the callous voice responded after a moment of consideration. "Do you need us to send you extra hands?" the senior asked.

Kayara quickly declined, "No. That won't be necessary. In fact, it might raise his suspicion and put him on guard against me."

"Hmm. That… kinda makes sense," the voice agreed.
