章 786: Confrontation [Pt 2]

"Don't walk away from this… Adonis."

The moment these words echoed in the air, the one being addressed suddenly froze up.

He slowly turned his head, mechanically shifting his face to look at Rey, who was a few steps behind him. Rey had a serious look on his face—something akin to a frown—as he gazed deep into Adonis' eyes.

Then, before the latter could even utter a word in response to the name he had just been called, Rey took a few steps forward and caught up to him.

"I cast Sound Magic around, so no one heard what I said except you." Despite saying this, there was no hint of relief in the tense face that Adonis had.

Perhaps he would have felt a bit more relieved if he hadn't been called by his actual name by a new student, but right now? Right now, he was in the middle of making a choice.

He was thinking only one thing.

—How to get rid of R'ai and keep his identity secret!
