บท 704: Date II

Since they weren't hurrying to the restaurant, they first went for a casual walk in the nearby park. 

It was not supposed to be something special, but Michael knew enough about Alice and the Zenovia family to know one thing for sure: Alice never had an ordinary life. She never had the pleasure of experiencing ordinary things.

Walking through a park and talking about all kinds of things, whether they were important or not, was one of those 'ordinary' experiences Alice never got to experience. 

The pair talked about various things as they walked through the park. They started off awkward, but their earlier encounter today helped make things a little bit easier. Alice mentioned the meeting with the higher-ups of the Saphirelake Military Academy and Michael's timely arrival. She grinned, recalling Zigard Kelton's sour face and the expression he made when Michael blacklisted him and his clan from purchasing Soultraits in the next Soultrait Auction.
