Chương 85: Preparation for the festival [3]

Thursday. A few days before the festival. 

I sat on one of the benches around the campus, waiting for someone. I checked the time. It was just about 3 P.M. 

I couldn't stay here for long. I had a place to be in a few hours. 

Thankfully, I didn't have to wait for long.

He appeared not long after. 

"You came." 

Wearing the same academy uniform as I did, Leon greeted me with a flat look. 

"Did you expect me to ignore your message?" 

"....." 

His lack of reply was all that I needed to hear. So he did... 

"What do you see me as?" 

This time, I could see a reaction from him. Disgust? And... A little bit of fear? 

"What..." 

"No, stop." 

He held his hand in front of me. 

"I come in peace." 

The fuck is this guy on about? In peace? In peace from what? 

"....I need your help." 

An unexpected set of words came out of his mouth and I frowned. 

"You want my help?"
