The Cult Conspiracy ( 254 )

Inside the study room, Marcellus sat at his desk, accompanied by Lithia. Cedric was beside him, with Meira attending to his needs, while Javier slumped in his chair, Liana seated elegantly next to him.

"Ehhh!? Doing paperwork!? I don't want to!" Javier groaned, flopping dramatically onto the table.

Marcellus rubbed his temples. "Shut up, Javier. We're all suffering here."

Cedric leaned back in his chair, pressing his forehead with frustration. "Alf will check on us every hour… or maybe every 30 minutes."

Javier sat up straight. "Every 30 minutes!? Are you serious!?"

Marcellus smirked mischievously. "Heheh, maybe even 15 minutes if he's in a bad mood."

Javier groaned, burying his face in his arms. "Ugh! Why me!? I'm still a kid!"

Cedric laughed. "Twelve years old is a kid? Keep dreaming, little brother! Ahahaha!"
