Chapter 56 The Forbidden Spell

• I observed from a distance as Alicia was paraded around the market, enduring the barrage of objects hurled at her. She attempted to shield herself from the onslaught, but it was clear that she was in considerable pain.
• "You didn't tell me that you were coming here. You should have tagged me along," Elara's voice sounded behind me. I turned to see her standing there, her expression unreadable. It unsettled me that she was witnessing this.
