Chapitre 81: Chapter 81 : Unexpected Appearance (2)

The sound of utensils met with the plate echoed in the silent room. I couldn't guess what was on everyone's mind, but the atmosphere was pretty cold and heavy. Seriously, if they were going to be like this, then what was the point of sitting and eating a meal together?
