A few awkward minutes later, they arrived in the Elven Kingdom.
After the bombshell the elf guiding them had just dropped, both Fleur and Caliste stayed completely silent. All those rumors were true… even if Fleur's family didn't want them to be.
"Your father is waiting for you inside. He will be the one in charge of the quest you have accepted."
Caliste, who was a few meters behind them, frowned. "What about the King?"
The elf immediately frowned at Caliste, clearly showing who he preferred and valued.
Every single time that Caliste had opened his mouth, he had received this annoyed gaze. However, out of respect, Caliste had kept quiet. He didn't want to cause too much trouble for everyone present.
"The King is busy for the time being. He had to leave on an emergency."
"Is everything alright?" Fleur asked with worry.
"Yes. It is nothing to worry about."
Caliste shook his head.
