Chapter 2: Suspicion
“They sent you to infiltrate Fiore in case the invasion failed, didn’t they?”
Standing up, Juvia glared at the two agents. “I refuse to stay here and listen to you make such accusations without evidence.”
Doranbolt reached for the handcuffs before using his teleportation magic. Appearing behind her, he quickly placed them around her wrists.
Juvia gasped upon realising that they prevented her from using magic. Not good.
Returning to his seat at the table, Doranbolt gave her a determined look. “You’re not going anywhere until we have the truth.”
“If you give us useful information, we might consider not arresting you.” Lahar said.
Juvia struggled against the cuffs, but it was pointless. “I don’t trust either of you.”
Doranbolt sighed. “Look, I’m giving you a chance to do the right thing here.”
“The right thing.” She rolled her eyes and scoffed. “Why do people always use that term?”
“If you don’t cooperate…” Lahar threatened.
“You’ll arrest me, I know.” Juvia shrugged.
“But before that…” Doranbolt lifted a glowing hand. “I’ll use my magic to see through your memories.”
Juvia considered this for a moment, quickly coming to the conclusion that it wouldn’t be the worst case scenario. After all, it’s not like they would find anything useful there either.
“Go ahead.” She shrugged, and the two agents seemed confused. “You won’t find what you’re looking for.”
“Alright, then.” Doranbolt pressed his hand against her forehead and closed his eyes.
