Chapter 227: Sometimes, I wonder why I even bother

Alisa closed her eyes, collected her thoughts. "When I first approached you, I thought you were a demigod. I thought I'd be safe with you. Back then my father, Damsel, the God of ice, was on my track. But later I found out you weren't a God. I was scared and tried to run. But your friend, that girl stopped me. She treated me well. I told her everything. But she didn't throw me away: Mr. Denkaborkarere knew too. And then that happened."

Again with the geezer's name.

I stayed quiet. It was a lot to take in. All this time I cursed my own powerlessness. I thought it was all my fault. Even when Alisa said she was a demigod back in Alfeim, I still didn't fault her. 

"I've said this before and I'll say it again. I'm so sorry!" She bowed her head.
