Chapitre 122: Liela's Story

Following that, the room became quiet as both of them sat there without conversing. Leila was lost in thought, contemplating what had happened to the small child that had left him so disturbed.

Meanwhile, Erwin didn't even bother to think about anything and just sat there silently. 

As the night wore on, Erwin began to feel tired. Leila noticed and offered him a spare room to sleep in.

"Thank you," he said gratefully.

Leila led him to the room, which was small but clean. "You can sleep here for as long as you need," she said. "I'll be in the other room if you need anything."

Erwin remained outside the room and, after a while, asked, "Miss Leila, Can I sleep with you tonight?"

Leila was surprised when Erwin made the request. She took a moment to think, but when she saw the pitiful look on his face like that of a child, she smiled and said, "Sure, you can sleep here."
