With the Empress now gone, the kitchen was silent as we all digested what had just been said, resulting in everyone once again looking at me, wondering just what the Empress meant by me being blessed by a Goddess.
I could tell that Anput, Leone and Jahi were all slightly hurt that I hadn't told them, whilst also feeling immensely curious by how this blessing could affect me going forwards.
Leone's siblings on the other hand were staring at me like some kind of exhibit animal, their eyes narrowed as they explored their thoughts on their own, leaving us in a suffocating silence.
One that was broken by Jahi as she stood up, the Demoness' movements slightly stiff as she reached down and grabbed my wrist, pulling me up.
"We need to talk... if you'll excuse us, everyone..."
