Chapitre 118: United we shall cumquer!!! Bonus chapter (magic castle reward)

The door opened slowly, and Mara and Matilda stepped inside. Mara spoke first, her voice earnest and a touch emotional. "Zafron, we wanted to talk to you. We've seen how hard you've been working lately. It's clear you're giving everything you've got, and we know it's not easy. But… we miss you."

Matilda followed, her tone gentle but sincere. "Yes, we really do. It feels like we haven't spent much time together, and it's starting to show. We know you're doing something important, but it's hard not to feel left out."

Zafron's heart sank hearing their words. "I'm sorry if I've been distant," he said. "I'm trying to make the most of this chance, but I want you both to know that no matter how busy I get, no one can take me away from you. You're important to me."

Mara nodded, her expression softening. "We just wanted to make sure you knew that we're here for you too."
