Proposal [3]

It took a while to convince them, but with Amelia's backing, Brandon managed to persuade Belle's subordinates that Lumian was already weakened when he beat him.

"Are you hurt anywhere?"

Belle spoke in a worried tone as she grabbed Brandon's shoulder, peering out for any signs of injuries.

"No, I'm fine."

Brandon shook his head.

Once again, Brandon and Amelia exchanged glances, her brows furrowed.

Belle didn't seem to notice the exchange as she was already staring at Amelia.

"Amelia, did you not get the announcement?"

"Announcement?"

"Check your phone again."

Amelia did just that. Shortly after, she shook her head and showed her phone to Belle.

"There's nothing."

"Alright. Seems like the mana is still disrupting the signal."

Belle retrieved her phone and showed it to both Amelia and Brandon.

"Here."

Brandon and Amelia leaned close and scanned.
