A purple crystal sphere wrapped inside a glass cube floated above the sky in a room capable of holding tens of thousands of people, every pair of eyes present staring at that purple crystal sphere, except for one person.
Alex, who stood in the stands, was not looking at the purple crystal sphere, but instead at Katarina, who was sitting near the trial arena.
Their gazes met for quite a long time, no words came out from either of them, there was only the voice of the king trying to explain about the purple crystal sphere.
But even with the king's voice echoing through that massive room, Alex did not hear it with focus, he only stared at Katarina.
Katarina moved her lips, a sentence escaped her mouth without sound.
One of Alex's eyebrows rose when he saw Katarina speaking without a voice, he repeated what she said.
"We'll…talk later?"
Alex only looked at Katarina with an expression of disbelief, he held himself back and slowly sat down again.
