Well, the whole thing with Beatrix and Pyra happened so fast Liam barely had time to catch his breath.
Beatrix looked straight at him for a second, then her eyes snapped back to Pyra.
"See, Miss Princess? I told you I had a way to find him."
Pyra glared at her hard. "I don't believe the words of some middle-aged shop owner.
You're too old to be wearing clothes like that anyway."
Beatrix looked shocked. Her usual smile disappeared completely.
She took a slow breath to steady herself, then pointed her finger right at Pyra.
"You know what, shorty? I'm sick of you."
He jumped in quickly before Beatrix could launch whatever spell she was about to throw. "Hey, what's going on here?"
Beatrix turned her glare on him instead. "It's all because of you and her.
The moment you vanished, this Pyra girl started poking around the city asking about you everywhere.
She came to my shop because you used to work for me.
