Markus couldn't help, but smile slightly at the sound of Castitas giggling. He tried to keep his expression as emotionless as possible, but it was hard when she was being so cute. He saw the hound peaking over it's shoulder with a smirk, he didn't like the look of it. He shot a stare at the creature to remind it of the promise he made if the hound tried anything funny. Markus never trusted that thing and was always ready at a moments notice to attack it. He looked onward as they continued to walk, what were they going to do when they go to this Umbra? How were they going to take the Orb from her? A slight feeling of fear rose inside of him, but tried his best to suppress it for it would only serve as a hindrance to him.
