Bab 895: Believe

"Avenge him? Forget him?"

When the question was out, Alea was stumped. No matter what, as her master, the empress needed to ask this question to her.

If she chose revenge, she could force Alea to learn anything. In the future, the feeling might diminish anyway. On the other hand, if she chose to forget about him, Alea could spend all her time focusing on her training.

"But you can ask her a few days later when everything has settled down." Ana still fought back, arguing about her timing.

Suddenly, Alea's hand reached her shoulder, stopping her.
