"What should we do now? From the way things are going, it does not seem like he will speak no matter how much we torture him," one of the Elder Dragons beside Kristos said in their native draconic tongue.
Their voices lowered as they switched fully to draconic, trying to keep their words hidden from Ash.
"Hmph. Just give me some time alone with him," the Red Dragon said, his tone filled with pride and cold certainty.
"Once I am done, he will be begging to speak. I will make sure he explains everything. Why he came here, how he managed to evade our eyes until now, and what exactly he is hiding."
Kristos, who had been quietly listening, raised his voice slightly to bring them back to the main issue.
"Let us not forget what truly matters. We still need to confirm whether he is the one acknowledged by the throne. I already told you all, the throne reacted."
