Chapter 54: Crimson Castle (3)

Standing before the three pathways, Vincent's party remained locked in a tense debate.

Two disagreed with his decision, one tried to calm them, while another wavered.

The white-haired elder, known as Uncle Gold, who had wielded a golden whip earlier, glanced at Caelius after soothing the two youths.

"We are here to support the young master. You, too, should be grateful that the young master allowed you to be here."

His words finally silenced Fiona and Karl, though they continued to cast suspicious glances at Vincent. Although skeptical himself, he refrained from voicing his doubts and waited for Caelius's decision.

Caelius' expression darkened initially when Fiona referred to him as 'young master.'

"I told you not to call me 'young master' while we're outside, remember?"

His words left them speechless.
