Chương 741: Chapter 741: Return To Center

I was in the veil before I could gulp down that particular tidbit, but had absorbed it by the time Max opened the other side and I stepped out into Center. I knew it immediately, felt the familiar pull of longing, as we stood on the edge of the great city that was the home of the maji.

A soft sigh escaped me. Yes, I'd left here last time pissed off and ready for a fight, but that didn't mean its effect on me had gone away. Now my anger was cooled, my focus on finding what I needed to know to move forward, the call of Center and the peace it offered my soul was almost too much to bear.

Until I caught Ameline smirking at me as if she knew what I was feeling.

Screw her. And the stupid spell this place had over me. When this was done, I couldn't wait to go home to my family and never see Center again.
