章 60: Manipulation

Aizel was exhausted from the fighting and the journey. All he wanted now was to soak in his bathroom's long, hot water bath. He also wanted to ponder over the mind potion he used during the raid, which was a treasure to him. He wanted to know how he could get more.

That's why he ignored the bickering with Leah about the Best Friend stuff and headed straight for the dining hall.

Daisy had already prepared some extra food and was serving it to him.

"Oh, thank you, Daisy; you are an angel," Aizel said, gulping his food as if he hadn't eaten in days.

Daisy chuckled while serving some food to Leah.

"Wait a minute, what are you doing here? I mean, why are you eating with us? Don't you have food at your home?" Aizel said as he glanced at Leah.

"Why? Can I not be here? Daisy is my friend too."

"When did you two become friends?" Aizel asked. He was visibly confused.

"While you were gone," Leah said casually.
