Aciel instantly crushed the tablet screen in his hand.
Crack.
The device shattered completely.
Several nearby guards visibly flinched.
Aciel's voice became terrifyingly calm.
"Find him."
Simon nodded immediately. "Already trying."
Lucien stepped forward slightly.
"There's something else."
Aciel looked at him coldly.
"The warehouse in the video…" Lucien continued, "I recognize the background."
Simon's eyes widened slightly.
"You know where it is?"
Lucien nodded once.
"The old shipping district near the eastern docks."
Xylia immediately looked toward them hopefully.
"Then we can save Liliana?"
Lucien's expression remained unreadable.
"Maybe."
Simon frowned. "What's that supposed to mean?"
Lucien's golden eyes darkened.
"Because Raven wants us to find him."
Silence followed instantly. And everyone understood why that was terrifying. This wasn't a rescue mission.
It was bait.
Raven was luring Aciel directly into a trap.
