Kaelira stared with her mouth hanging open, eyes wide in disbelief as Leon calmly cleaved through another wave of monsters like he was slicing through paper.
Snowflakes danced in his wake, and the battlefield bent to his presence like it was a stage crafted for him alone.
She finally whispered, "…Wait a damn minute. We had that kind of monster in our arsenal all this time… and no one told me?"
Verena scoffed without even glancing at her. "Because you didn't need to know, duh?"
Kaelira slowly turned her head, narrowing her eyes suspiciously at Verena. "You didn't know either, did you?"
Verena flinched, her body stiffening. "What? No! I knew! I'd seen him duel Zyon before!"
Kaelira wasn't convinced for a second. She leaned in slightly, brow raised. "If you sayyyyy sooo…"
Verena shot her a glare. "You don't sound convinced."
Kaelira smirked, voice deadpan. "Yeah, maybe 'cause I'm fucking not."
Verena's brow twitched violently, a vein bulging near her temple. "You—!"
