บท 616: Not Here

(From Blue's Perspective)

"The kids have grown so much. It feels like yesterday when I saw Dion barely a second old," Evan said.

"I know, right? You blink and they are all grown-up," I chuckled. "How is the queen? And Benjamin?"

"They are fine," Evan said. "Benjamin wanted to come, but you mentioned Demian went with the master and the mistress of the magic tower, so Ben changed his mind."

"I did not agree to Demian going with Luc and Ruby. He was stubborn," I said.

"He has always been the stubborn one, hasn't he? Now, Blue, why don't you tell me about yourself? How have you been?"

Evan had grown old. He was in his fifties now. His golden hair was streaked with gray ones. His golden eyes were as vibrant as before. His physique was still strong.

"Same old," I said.
