Bab 148: What a Pain!

Just like before, they arranged for the clothes to be delivered to the Academy.

Their outing continued, and since it was lunchtime, they went to a fancy restaurant and ordered some food.

Selene watched Aether as he silently ate his meal. She wanted to feed him, but she felt she might be pushing too much for a single day, so she decided to postpone it... She achieved what she wanted so enough for today.

While eating, Lia, who sat across from Selene and Aether, glanced at Selene. She could see Selene devouring Aether with her eyes alone, and she felt like a third wheel.

'I should have left, but...' Lia wanted to leave, but Aether had whispered for her to come along, 'It seems he isn't interested in her... Maybe he doesn't want to trust nobles again... just like me.' She felt a sense of camaraderie with Aether and decided to help him when necessary.
