Chapter 658: Agent's Reward

The carriage was extremely quiet, and with Shard's superior physical condition coupled with the enhanced hearing from the "Echo of the Past" in a Divine Afterglow State, he faintly heard a few words in Carsonrick, although not very clearly:

"What are they saying?"

Maid said: Your Highness, MI6 agents have been spotted around the station.

"Hmm? How can you hear that?"

Murmurs continued beside his ear:

When you can see a direction unseen by others, is it that impossible to hear sounds others fail to perceive?

"She" made a fair point, and since Shard had heard part of the voice himself, it made sense that the "other me" with a stronger perception could hear even more:

"However, MI6 is actually...wait? Your Highness?"

His eyes widened slightly, though his expression did not change as he said:

"Your Highness, you need not use formal language with me just now."

Then he followed up with a question:

"Also, has something happened?"
