As Elias sat in his room, he felt the familiar weight of his system's presence in his mind. The soothing yet robotic voice echoed softly in his thoughts.
[You are being followed. The person trailing you is connected to Lady Selene. Do you wish to address the matter?]
Elias sighed, rubbing his temples. He had sensed the presence lingering in the shadows throughout the day — quiet, discreet, and always just out of sight. It wasn't difficult to deduce who had sent the watcher.
"Lady Selene," Elias muttered under his breath. She had spent the entire day with him, and though her demeanor had been warm, her mind had been calculating. This was no surprise.
[Do you wish to take action?]
Elias considered it. He could confront whoever was following him, demand answers, or even lead them into a trap to catch them in the act. But what good would that do? It would only create more conflict and make him appear even more suspicious in the eyes of those watching him.
