Chad led Colin and his companion into the study and then left.
The gloomy-faced Yeats, sitting in a chair holding a book, did not rise, calmly watching them as he quietly asked,
"Speak then, what 'important' news do you have in your hands?"
Colin stepped forward, somewhat displeased with Yeats's manner of questioning.
But realizing the gravity of the situation, he didn't dwell on it and quickly informed Yeats of everything in a concise manner.
As his words unfolded, Yeats's lips began to curl into a smirk.
Before Colin had finished speaking, Yeats set down his book, chuckled lightly with a somewhat playful interruption,
"So what you're suggesting is—the Tree Elf Clan are traitors?"
A slight heaviness settled in Colin's heart as he paused before adding in a more somber tone,
"What I mean is that there's a possibility. What I can be certain of is—the Elf Clan, especially the Tree Elves, must have already sided with the Divine!"
