Upon hearing Lumian's response, Albus's eyes widened slightly, and his eyebrows twitched.
Elros's mouth hung open as if something was stuck in her throat.
She quickly smiled and scrutinized Lumian's face with a meaningful gaze.
At that moment, Albus returned to normal and gazed at Lumian. He clicked his tongue and said, "You're really ruthless. You even went back and killed the wax statue guy."
"I had no choice. He stopped me from burning the wax statues," Lumian said with a gentle smile.
Albus's eyebrows twitched again.
"Did you really burn them?"
"Of course," Lumian shared his findings sincerely. "The wax statues' surfaces melted and peeled away to reveal human corpses."
Albus wasn't surprised at all. He applauded and smiled mockingly.
"Well done! I must praise your courage."
It's as if he's saying that I'm ignorant and fearless… Lumian didn't believe that Albus was really praising him.
