Chapitre 1008: Ren's Melancholy, An Early Night of Thoughts and Plans

Day 337 - 8:21 PM - Mountain Base, Mount Malabito, General Nakar, Province of Quezon, Philippines

Ren sat on a bench under the gigantic tree in the middle of the Mountain Base. It was already two days since he woke up after she was almost killed by her family's schemes. Although she had completely recovered from the physical effects of that event, her emotional recovery was still lagging behind.

Mako's "betrayal" was still in Ren's mind. To Ren, Mako was one of her most trusted people, her childhood friend, and more of a family member than her actual family. Yet, Mako was the one to drive a dagger through her chest and heart.

Although Mako had done something that kept Ren alive, it could not be denied that Mako betrayed them. The [Clan Seal] was taken away, and the efforts of the Black Lotus for the people of their territory had gone to waste.

But why?
