"You, you, and you." Raelis pointed at a few people. "Gather five more each and explore the castle. Come back to me in an hour with all the details."
They seemed the most reliable out of the bunch.
Of course, he didn't base it on their looks alone, as he had heard of each of these people before.
Charlotte, the black-haired beauty and an incredibly skilled swordswoman.
Antares, a demonic mage. Well, not yet...
He's someone who'd become evil, but that's because his childhood sweetheart found someone else, Raelis thought, sending prayers his way. He called a demon and tried to kill everyone, but was killed less than an hour later.
Despite that, he had a knack for magic and leadership, so he was a good candidate.
And lastly, Alice.
She had given him quite a lasting impression, so naturally, she was someone he trusted.
Antares cleared his throat and raised his hand.
Raelis chuckled.
