Chapter 164 : Heart to heart

Jeffrey cleared his throat to get Elric's attention but it seemed that his mind was too occupied. Jeffrey shifted a little in hopes that Elric would look over but still nothing, the silver haired king maintained his brooding gaze outside the carriage window.

"Your royal highness!" Jeffrey called out and finally got Elric to look at him. "Could you please put your claws away, this carriage is rather small and I don't wish to lose a limb."

Elric looked down at his hands and noticed his elongated nails that were inches away from Jeffrey's knees. "Sorry," Elric muttered to the man sitting across from him. He retracted them and leaned back on the carriage chair, a frustrated look on his face.
