Chương 278: [Event] [The Fallen Prophetess] [4] Unenjoyable Dinner

After parting ways with Melfina, I aimed for the room assigned to my group, but John messaged me, letting me know they were all in the dinner hall. A worker directed me there, and upon finding John, I couldn't help but appreciate having him as my brother-in-law, the one who had accompanied me in Sancta Vedelia.

There he was, savoring his meal with Victor, Sirius, and Selene. A table for four meant there was no space for me. John, considerate as always, hadn't reserved me a spot. Selene, predictably, had taken advantage, securing my place without a second thought.

Alone again.

I glanced around awkwardly, my brow creasing slightly. There was a free seat at Jiren's table, my newfound friend from the shopping mall yesterday. I put on a smile and approached the table.

"Hiii!" One of Jiren's friends flinched immediately upon noticing me. Jiren and the other friend followed suit, their hands shivering like they'd seen a monster.
