Leonaut blinked in shock upon hearing Rugi's words, before letting out a cocky smirk. "Unfortunately, I have no say in that."
"...?!"
The shock was apparent on Rugi's face.
"You see, I am not actually Xue himself but..." Leonaut shrugged, still smirking. "I'll pass the message."
Xue: "Stop fooling around."
Xue: "Just tell him my answer."
Leonaut: "Haha, now where's the fun in that?"
Xue: "..."
The soul fragments were scratching their heads, helpless.
Now, they really weren't sure if it was a good decision to let Leonaut out.
It was exactly like Zasiok said.
Leonaut wouldn't do anything bad, but he wouldn't do anything good either.
"..." Rugi hesitated, coughing lightly. "Are you one of..."
"Yeah."
"Then where in the world is Xue?"
"Gone."
"Wha--"
"For a while."
"..."
"But like I said, I'll pass the message."
Rugi showed Leonaut a dubious expression.
Xue was sighing on the inside, his hand on his forehead.
Xue: "What the hell are you doing?"
