Three days passed quietly afterward for both Arceus and Kiara.
Yet outside Nexus Store, the Imperial City had already exploded with rumors.
By now, almost everyone knew that Arceus Silver was staying together with Kiara, and currently, he was staying there, managing her business.
Since House Silver could not forcibly drag him back without provoking greater public backlash, the elders instead chose damage control.
And thus…
A brand-new story began spreading across taverns, markets, noble gatherings, and tea houses.
According to the newest rumor carefully crafted by House Silver, Kiara and Arceus had secretly fallen in love sometime after the public trial.
However, Wester Silver supposedly opposed their relationship due to his hostility toward Kiara and the fact that she is a commoner.
As a result, Arceus had escaped in the middle of the night nearly ten days ago and had been living together with his lover ever since.
The most dangerous thing about rumors was silence.
