Chapter 228: Chapter 228: Reaper’s Scythe

On the way back, 

Celestine kept thinking about what Charles had just said, "It's true, believe me!" 

Although she didn't understand what Charles was talking about, especially the part about "all the damned people, all dead!" she could vaguely sense that things were not that simple. 

Finally, as she was nearing her home, 

Celestine couldn't hold back her curiosity and asked, "Charles, what exactly happened? Didn't you rescue the missing children?" 

Charles looked at the puzzled expression on Celestine's face and replied, "This is something you shouldn't get involved in, it's better if you don't know." 

The familiar words left Charles feeling a bit dazed. 

He had heard such things many times before, Teacher Colton had said it, Teacher Ezra had said it, and so had Dean Jamie. 

When they said those things back then, they must have been filled with worry, not wanting those they cared about to face danger.
