Chương 652: Side Story 2. Dance of Flame and Shadow - 11

One day, a frowning squirrel suddenly barged into Agni's office, and, after staring at him silently for about five seconds, demanded as such from the door;

"Don't come to see me for a while," the kid had told him. It was a rather calm...request--if not an order--but uttered with such intense gaze that Agni thought he was about to be cursed at.

"Huh?"

Naturally, Agni was dumbfounded. "How could I make sure you're not running to the Deathzone if I don't?"

"I won't go," the squirrel replied swiftly.

"What?"

"I promise I won't try to go, so just stop checking on me for a while."

Agni narrowed his eyes. Was this a trick to lower his guard? How could he believe this sly, sneaky squirrel?

Ron rolled his eyes at the dubious look the berserker gave him. "You can task other people to watch me, just not you."

What--so it wasn't because he wanted to be left alone? Huh...so the kid just wanted to avoid his presence?
