Chapter 208: Akiara’s Introduction
Chapter: Akiara’s Introduction
---
As the sun sets, Adam walks through a quiet park in Lisa’s city. The fading orange light filters through the trees, casting long shadows on the empty benches and paths.
Adam’s sharp eyes scan the area until they settle on Lisa, who is sitting on a bench, waiting patiently.
Beside her is a petite girl, whose black hair shines in the dim light.
Her pink frock contrasts with the dark surroundings, making her look like an innocent child out of place in the serious atmosphere.
Adam approaches, his steps deliberate, and his usual stern expression softens slightly upon seeing Lisa.
She beams and jumps up from her seat, running toward him.
"Adam-senpai!" Lisa’s voice rings out cheerfully. "I’m so glad you came. You’ve changed a lot since I last saw you!"
Adam raises an eyebrow, slightly taken aback. "Changed? It’s only been a few months. I don’t think I’ve changed that much."
Lisa shakes her head vigorously, her expression animated. "No, no! You have! Your appearance looks sharper somehow. Like... more mature."
