Chapter 37: Ch 37 : Moonlit Night and Conversation
The moon shone brightly, the stars sparse in the sky, and the night was as cool as water.
Lucy leaned against the windowsill of her house, quietly gazing at the scenery outside.
Yet, her heart was filled with a flood of emotions—guilt, heartache, gratitude, and joy all intertwined.
The overwhelming tide of feelings left her lost in thought, her mind replaying everything that had happened during the Phantom Lord incident earlier that day.
"What's wrong, Lucy? Still thinking about Phantom Lord?"
A warm and gentle voice suddenly reached her ears, pulling her out of her daze.
Following the sound, she spotted a golden-haired boy sitting leisurely on the rooftop of a nearby building.
His gaze was lifted toward the sky, as if he were watching the night unfold.
"Noel? What are you doing here?" Lucy exclaimed in surprise, looking at him with confusion.
Without turning his head, Noel replied, "Because... the view from here is pretty nice."
Following his gaze, Lucy saw a crescent moon hanging in the night sky, bright and beautiful.
