'Why does it have to be him of all people?' she thought, a rare cold shiver passing through her spine.
Of all the Demon Emperor's children, it could only be a sign that the one with the biggest sadistic tendency was Noir.
Even when she was a child, she had always avoided him because there was just something unnerving about him.
The feeling was just like the way Nox and the other children in the Barony felt about her, only that hers was much more intense.
Unlike the children who only had speculations, she... she had heard rumors of Noir's strength and seen his cruelty firsthand.
'What a headache.' Eve thought with a frown on her face. 'Fortunately, the prince left just in time. If not for that... with Noir here, the barrier wouldn't remain standing for long, and he would have been killed off.'
BANG!
Suddenly, the door slammed open, and both Noir and Eve snapped their heads in that direction.
