Belle fell behind, slowly following.
As for those four Liches, they had already started discussing.
"Have you been here before?"
"No, never. This place looks quite nice, though. The statues are all fierce-looking, not at all righteous."
"Hmmm… Maybe the Blood Clan Elders want others to think they're fierce?"
"So what are we supposed to do?"
"Just stand here, we'll stand behind Jones. It shows we support him, then we don't have to do anything else."
"Alright, that sounds simple."
Everyone from various families had already walked up the steps, except for the Sambo family.
Jones had been quietly monitoring them all along the way. He noticed Adelle seemed to be chatting with his father. It didn't seem pleasant. Adelle wanted to leave, maybe walk towards Jones, but Prince Louis held his hand.
Jones unconsciously stopped, watching from a distance.
Belle hurried to Jones's side, whispering, "Something feels off."
"You mean the Sambo family?"
