The Ice Elf stared at Ayame deeply, her eyes piercing through flesh and bone.
"Interesting," she murmured softly.
The human beside her raised an eyebrow with curiosity.
"What did you see, Glaciana?"
The Ice Elf turned toward him with an unreadable expression.
"Nothing. Let's go."
But before leaving, she glanced back at Ayame one final time.
"Take care," she said and then vanished into shimmering light.
Ayame stood frozen in place, her face filled with utter confusion.
Why would someone who just killed most of her faction members tell her to take care?
Caelus was equally surprised by this strange interaction.
His mind raced with questions that had no answers.
Did she find out that this was Amaterasu? Then does that mean the elf was related to the Shinto faction somehow? But why would she kill people from that same faction?
The questions piled up endlessly in his head.
But the two experts had already left, and he wouldn't be finding answers anytime soon.
