Touching her cheek, Maria looked at her hand. 'Blood?'
She didn't even see the attack coming. One second, she was fine, the next, she felt a sting in her cheek. It came so fast that she didn't know where it came from or who sent it.
Looking around, she finally noticed a man leaning on a throne, staring at her with an unsettling smile. 'Him? But why? More importantly, who is he?'
Since the man was in the middle of Divine Sea Realm masters fighting, he must have been strong, but she didn't know what she had done to upset him.
'No.' She shook her head. 'Rather than upset, he looks… eager?'
Light shone on her wound, and it was healed in an instant, but for some reason, she felt that she had missed something…
"Umm… Maria? What's that tattoo on your cheek?" Celaine pointed and asked.
"Tattoo?" She touched the previously injured spot but didn't feel anything.
"Yeah. There's a red lightning bolt on your cheek."
"...Huh?"
