After arriving at the basement where the prisoner of the holy knights waited for Ryan to begin his questions.
She, quite unusually for a devout holy knight, agreed to answer all the questions asked of her, or at least that is what she had said minutes before.
After finishing that sentence, the girl fell completely silent. Her eyes widened, losing all the color in her face in a single second. Her terrified gaze fixed directly on the imposing figure standing behind Ryan.
"Dragon..." the girl murmured with a broken voice.
But she cut herself off abruptly, shutting her mouth with great force. She bit her own tongue hard from the immense shock of seeing Ivis so closely.
The pain in her mouth made her react instinctively.
Cough, cough, cough.
She began to cough violently, trying to catch her breath in the damp environment of the basement.
"What... is that really a dragon?" the prisoner asked, her hands trembling visibly.
"Why... no... this must be a sick joke."
