章 487: Growth (Part 1)

Lith didn't know whether he should be happy or worried about it. He only had one year left in the army and after that, he might be forced to expand his search to other countries. He hadn't planned for Kamila to enter his life, just like he had never expected to become so attached to Phloria during the academy.
