Chapter 297: Letting It Out (3)
0% The residence where Aether was staying was only a two-room house.
A large place for one person, but modest for a high-ranking official with the title of Minister of Magic.
Having spent her youth in a big mansion, it felt cramped to Klais. She thought the elves were keeping Aether in check even in the personal things. Perhaps providing an awkward-sized house like this was a sign of sorts–a sign that they would discard her after they were done with her.
Apart from that, the owner herself didn’t seem to be bothered.
Rather, she seemed to be satisfied. Aether was looking pleasant from the moment she opened the front door, like a commoner who had never lived in a house like this before.
That part triggered her guilt.
Klais barely managed to move her mouth that had clamped shut.
“......Excuse me.”
She scanned the floor while arranging her shoes.
There were only two pairs of shoes including hers.
Meaning, it was just her and Aether in this house right now.
