“…Hah,” Adea gritted his teeth. Having already bowed to Ruel, he felt he had no remnants of pride left to lose. Yet, anger still simmered within him. Staring fiercely at Ruel, Adea finally rose from his seat. “Understood. I’ll be back.”
As Ruel moved to stand, Adea raised his hand. “No need to see me off. Let’s go.”
Medeas stood up from his seat, with an apologetic expression, he spoke, “Then, please take your time to rest.”
There was a note left on the seat where Medeas had been sitting.
Ruel grasped the note and watched the two of them leave.
—One person was angry at Ruel, and one continued to apologize to him.
Leo, who was also looking at the door, spoke.
“I know.”
