Kyle watched silently as Ruby was dragged away, her aged body trembling with rage and fear.
The moment she was out of sight, he reached into his pocket and carefully tucked the amulet away.
Bruce, who had been watching closely, frowned.
"Young master… are you sure it's wise to carry something so dangerous?"
Kyle smirked.
"I'm more dangerous than this thing. Ah, but if you want, you can carry it instead of me."
Kyle offered but Bruce reacted instantly.
"No, thank you. You can keep it with you, young master."
Bruce was quick to refuse, causing Kyle to keep the amulet with himself.
He said simply, patting his pocket.
Bruce sighed, but he didn't push the matter further. He had learned that when Kyle set his mind on something, it was best to let him be.
Meanwhile, in another part of the Armstrong estate, Christan's mood had soured considerably upon hearing the news of Ruby's fate.
