Capítulo 291: Chapter 283. Stealing Thunder

How could it be that they never talked about this before?

Bassena knew Zein awakened when the man was ten, but he had never thought, in his wildest imagination, that they awakened on the same day. It almost felt like a dream, like a...fate. 

Parting his lips in a daze of amazement, Bassena stared unblinking at the guide, his guide, as if the man himself was a miracle.

"What? Wait..." Abel, who finally finished putting on his tie correctly, turned around to look at the esper and Zein. "Are you telling me...you're awakened on the same day?"

"Seemed so," Zein said with a brand of tenderness that got Abel quite taken aback since he had never heard it before.

Because Zein did not wear his mask this time, Abel didn't have to read the expression just from his eyes. So it was easier to see the way Zein's cold countenance softened, glowing softly as if a nightlight was shining from within.
