The Elder watched Mirabella's actions without a hint of worry that she'd uncover anything suspicious. He lightly tapped his fingers on the table and said, "Go ahead, Miss Mira."
Next to her, Nick smoothly took the tablet from Mirabella's hands, fully aware that fairness wasn't exactly the council's forte. "Mira, how about letting me go first?"
Whoever drew the first task was undoubtedly going to get the short end of the stick, with a task already set up to be a dud.
The Elder raised an eyebrow at this but didn’t step in. After all, it didn’t really matter which of the siblings went first.
Mirabella tilted her head, "If I say I mind, would it mess up our sibling bond?"
Nick was caught off guard, "Huh?"
Mirabella took back the tablet, her eyes twinkling with a hint of mischief, "Everything should be fair, right?"
With that, she tapped the screen to draw her task.
At this point, it was too late for Nick to say anything.
"A collab task with Ravenshade?" The Elder took back the tablet, looking surprised. Turning to Mirabella, he grinned, "Looks like luck's on your side, Miss Mira, drawing a task that's supposedly a breeze."
