"Agh…?" Silvana's eyes widened, and she blinked several times. "You…?"
Sure, Gladius was a Second-Rank Phantom, but Adam and Silvana knew that Gladius wasn't a noble, nor was he a member of any of the major factions. His power and abilities were great, but for the most part, he worked for Aiden and operated in the shadows.
"Yes, why does that surprise you?"
Gladius smiled, his eyes narrowed into crescents.
"Have you really forgotten how we were together at Osana's wedding? Hahaha, good thing it fell through, even though Adam had to fight at the Moon Colosseum because of it."
Adam clenched his fists. Gladius was right. He wasn't the type to shy away from an important event, even if no one had invited him.
Strange as it may seem, that time it turned out to be an advantage for Adam. If Gladius hadn't been at the ceremony, Adam would have had big problems with the nobles. Gladius easily defended him, though at that moment he still didn't realize just how great Gladius's power was.
