"…Mammon?"
Amon's eyes widened slightly, caught off guard.
Mammon?
The name struck me and confusion started to spark in my mind. Why would Elise call her that?
But Elise quickly shook her head, her voice shifting.
"No… you're younger. Much younger than the Mammon I know. You're not her. You're… her missing daughter, aren't you?"
My eyes flicked immediately toward Amon.
For a moment, she looked stunned with her expression betraying her surprise. But just as quickly, she calmed herself, composure returning to her features.
"I believe Mammon is my mother's name, yes," Amon said slowly. "And yes… I am Mammon's daughter."
"I see…" Elise whispered, her tone more measured now. "Then would you accompany me back to the demon continent?"
"No."
Amon's answer came instantly, sharp and without hesitation.
Elise frowned. "Why?"
