Colin's footsteps paused imperceptibly, and with a slight movement of his left hand, a black scepter entwined with dark golden patterns silently emerged from his palm.
Perhaps it was wishful thinking, but he always felt that in such a situation, if Lillian knew, she would surely come to find him herself!
Colin then spoke again,
"Where exactly is our destination on the bottom level?"
"It's next to the storeroom at the very bottom; there are several dark rooms there."
Silear kept walking, distinguishing the direction in front of him while he continued to respond.
Colin nodded again, his expression inscrutable.
He always felt that there was something familiar about the speed of Silear's speech and his subtle movements.
Colin's gaze flickered, then he suddenly changed the topic, voicing his doubts,
"Lord Silear, why don't we use a faster way to go downstairs?"
"A faster way?" Silear paused slightly in stride, turning his head back in confusion to glance at Colin.
