Bab 86: In the music room

''Then why do you ask?" Esme rolled her eyes, ''Tell me.''

''When you came here to the Capital City...'' Aleister paused as he noticed her expression, ''I was the one who attacked you in the Enchantment Forest.'' 

Esme, who had her eyes closed as she danced while feeling the breeze, stopped feeling it after she heard his words, ''What did you say?" Her eyes opened. 

''When I saw it was you, I retracted my sword,'' Aleister added. 

Esme gaped at him, ''You... You recognized me since then?"

''Your eyes are rare,'' he raised an eyebrow at her. 

Esme blinked, ''No...You... You were the one who attacked me and my horse?" As he nodded, she laughed dryly, ''And you say that we are fated. I would not have lived till this day if I had not caught that arrow in time,'' She placed her hands on his chest and pushed him slightly.
