章節 414: C414. The Stringmaster

Though Bam had escorted Athena to the throne room as her personal guard and retainer, Athena told him to wait in her room so he just watched as Reynald and Athena left in the opposite direction.

The two walked shoulder to shoulder through the corridors.

"So, Athena. You acted rather strange earlier when Lady Rain was speaking. Was there something wrong with what was happening?"

"Strange?" Athena tilted her head in response as she smiled and continued; "I don't believe I know what you are referring to. Could it be that you were daydreaming during an important meeting such as that?"

"..."

Reynald stared at Athena with his eyes wide open for a second, to which Athena responded with a smile as if nothing had just happened. 

'This girl's such a pain to deal with.'

 Reynald sighed inwardly as he adjusted his posture and continued walking as he responded to his sister.
