"So you're not worried at all?" Athine asked with a gentle smile, her eyes shifting toward Javier.
"Let's see how far they get," Javier replied, smirking. "Besides..."
He slipped both hands into his pockets, his posture relaxed. "I'm not that gullible or stupid. I've already made sure my Sky Eyes are watching every entrance and exit to their so-called secret base."
He chuckled, glancing toward the window again.
"And their so-called detection charm? Please. Basic stuff."
His eyes narrowed slightly with quiet satisfaction.
"I already slipped in one of my new creations. Something small. Quiet. Untraceable. It spies, records, and sends a live broadcast back to my personal workshop."
Athine raised an eyebrow.
"Let's just say… I'll know who's involved before they know who's watching. Luckily, no one from Armand is part of that mess."
Javier exhaled lightly, then smiled again.
"Anyway, Athine. I'm heading out."
He turned toward the door, gave her a sly wink.
"Alf's coming."
