Chapitre 516: Farewell

While Baiyi and Captain Aegis conversed, Mia and Lulu were having a less awkward discussion in Lulu's room. Lulu's parents were still at the barracks treating the injured, so the girls were able to enjoy some privacy. 

Lulu gave Mia a complicated look. Her eyes contained traces of shock, wonder, jealousy, and a sliver of resentment. Mia understood the sentiment behind that gaze, so she knew that she had to pin the blame on someone else. 

"Okay; that was totally my Dad's idea. He forbade from telling anyone that I am a sorcerer," Mia said. 

"So... a little village girl was able to befriend Little Miss Sorcerer, huh?" Lulu mumbled, looking a bit self-conscious. 

Mia quickly hugged Lulu. "You'll always be my friend; no matter what," She whispered in Lulu's ears. "I'm afraid I can't stay here any longer. But, if you still cherish me as a friend, then, please…accept this."
