"Y-You don't need to give him anything, children. As a saintess, I will take care of everything," Kyra declared solemnly, her tone filled with determination. She couldn't bear to see Eli's manipulative tactics affecting the children.

"Hehe..." Eli chuckled softly, his amusement evident in his expression.

"What's so funny?" Kyra demanded, her displeasure clear.

"If that's the case, then where have you been until now? And even today, you only came because of Arlyne, not of your own accord, right?" Eli's question was accompanied by an amused smile, challenging Kyra's assertion.
