Blood dripped down Scarlet sat on a nearby chair, observing with surprise but refraining from Interrupting It wasn't until Felicia made three cuts that Scarlet finally asked, "Boss, what exactly are you doing Felicia didn't lift her head. "Looking for a venomous creature." "Venemous creature?" Scarlet's eyes widened in shock. It was rare to see her startled. "Are you saying that you lost control and attackedbecause you were being manipulated by one?" "Probably. I'm still trying to confirm." Felicia made another cut on her arm, but there was still no sign of anything unusual.
When she had previously extracted the twin venomous creatures from Lewis, the sbloodletting method had forced the creatures to surface. However, there was no reaction even after four cuts.
This left two possibilities. Either there was no venomous creature, or it had been planted in her so long ago that it had becundetectable.
She hoped it wasn't the latter.
If she didn't resolve this soon, she would eventually Felicia's grip tightened around the knife, but her trembling hand failed to hold it steady. Soon, the blade fell to the ground.

You givethe feeling that you knewScarlet chuckled, her hand instinctively reaching out to pinch Felicia's cheek, though she stopped halfway, "I have a younger sister about your age. I'm reminded of her whenever I see you." So, Felicia reminded Scarlet of her sister.
