Liora was already walking toward her side of the arena.
But Loreia quickly stepped in front of her.
"Liora. Just where are you coming from?"
Liora stopped.
"Hunting."
Loreia narrowed her eyes.
"Hunting? When the event starts today?"
Liora looked straight at her.
"You didn't stop me yesterday."
Loreia clicked her tongue and smacked her lightly on the forehead.
"Because I thought Lucius and Luna would help me."
She crossed her arms.
"But no, they broke each other, leaving me to handle all of this alone."
She shook her head.
"I had to force Lucius to activate the system just so they could stand again."
"And after that, I punished them and made them work behind the scenes."
Liora gave a small nod.
"I see. No wonder you ended up becoming Lord L."
Loreia smirked beneath the mask.
"Of course. I had to hold the entire castle together somehow."
She paused, then raised her eyebrow.
"But tell me something."
"How did you come back so fast?"
