Reynald, who had looked serious until now, suddenly shrugged his shoulders and leaned back casually in his chair. He broke into a wide smile, and the atmosphere around him shifted dramatically.
"So, what part do I play in this investigation?" he asked in a cheerful tone, as if the tense conversation from just moments ago had never happened at all.
Lucian glanced at him briefly, fighting the urge to sigh. He raised an eyebrow, the corners of his mouth twitching slightly. This man... his mood changes far too quickly.
Cedric also seemed to notice this shift. He stared at Reynald for a few seconds before finally giving a small nod.
"Your Grace, you are close to Guild Master Servent, are you not? If that is the case, I would like to request your assistance in providing communication channels and access to information," he explained.
"I am sure this will not be too much of a problem for you."
