Kaine's fist drove into his own shadow on the wall.
His punch caused the shadow to splash as if it were water, spreading across the wall.
From it was a dampened air of a confined space, a clear sign—that something was on the other side of this shadow hole—a portal. It was auraless and soundless. Even if there was someone on the other side of the wall, they would not notice this portal opening.
Only Kaine could sense and use it.
"Now, let's see what you're hiding, Your Majesty…"
Kaine cracked his neck and stretched his arms, preparing for what he was about to do.
Once he was ready, he entered the hole without even bringing his weapon with him.
As he stepped on the other side, he found himself inside the very room where he had talked with the two royal knights earlier. Other than to lure Empress Morgana, he also asked the two for somewhere to talk privately so that he could mark this place.
Normally, doing something like this was impossible.
