Chapter 31. Memories
A short while later, Licht stood alone
He was no longer in the dark and cold atmosphere of the outside world but instead the warm lit space of his room.
His room was lavish. It was pristinely decorated with excessively ornate furniture looked more like a five-star suite than a dormitory.
As the academy’s top-ranked cadet, everything given to him was top class. Private bath, magic-enhanced climate control, luxury furniture...
It should’ve felt like heaven.
But it didn’t, Instead Licht had just one thought
’Disgusting’
After the unsettling experience and actions he had to perform just several minutes earlier, Everything about the treatment this body received reeked of disgusting hypocrisy.
He stood here surrounded by comfort and luxuries he could only dream on earth, but with the luxuries he lost true freedom. His own body felt like a cage. In a sense, all this high end treatment was no different to getting a first course meal in prison.
But if it was just the annoying consequences of not being able to completely control his body, Licht wouldn’t have been too bothered and managed to endure.
No, what truly set him off about the situation in Licht’s body was not how his behaved but instead It was the memories.
