Chapitre 147: Interception

As the tense confrontation unfolded, Claire's eyes narrowed with recognition upon witnessing Night Shade's mana presence. Despite it being their first meeting, she immediately identified him as Pseudo-Sorcerer Night Shade.

A calm yet smug tone laced her words as she taunted him, noting his dishevelled appearance.

"So, it is you, Pseudo-Sorcerer Night Shade... It seems your encounter with my leader did not go too well for you," she remarked with a mocking edge. She did not seem worried that August might have also been in danger. It did not cross her mind at all. August's image in her head was one of invincibility.

Night Shade's response lacked anger, instead carrying an air of calculated cruelty. Acknowledging Claire's observation, he confirmed her suspicions.
