Kalal, upon hearing the voice from the Messenger Stone, paused briefly before immediately asking—
"Lionheart Ceremony?
My lord?
Which lord is it?"
His tone was urgent, it was clear that Kalal sought a definitive answer.
However, Lady Windsor's voice coming from the Messenger Stone carried a distinct haughty air.
"Tell me, which other lord could it be?
Who else could I refer to as my lord besides Arthur Kredos?"
At this, Lady Windsor huffed softly.
"Next time we meet, I will tell you the details in full!"
The phrase "tell you the details" allowed Kalal, even without seeing Lady Windsor, to instantly envision her gritting her teeth.
In the suite, Jimte winked at Hayes, who was lying on Manta's lap.
Hayes immediately burst into laughter.
"I thought Kalal didn't like women."
Though he spoke softly, Manta beside him heard him clearly.
The lady promptly gave her partner a gentle smack on the forehead.
