Chapter 645
Ludwig returned from his brief walk, his mind still buzzing with worry.
He had just visited the university’s magic department, but the trip had been quick. His anxiety wouldn’t let him stay away for long.
Scarlett was in a precarious situation. He had asked her to follow his instructions without fully explaining the circumstances, leaving her understandably confused. It was only fair to give her some time to process everything, but he couldn’t afford to wait too long.
Back at the Temple dormitory, Ludwig approached Scarlett’s door and knocked gently.
“Scarlett, it’s me,” he called softly.
He stood there, waiting in the silence, but no response came.
Was she somewhere else, lost in thought, instead of being in her room?
Knock, knock.
“Scarlett.”
Ludwig knocked again, but there was no response.
He stood quietly in front of the door, waiting for an answer.
Knock, knock.
