When Xu Ke went back to see Lyca, he was already smiling as if he didn't just kill his cousin. He sat on the only chair in the room as Lyca leaned against the metal table, staring at him, scrutinizing his weird gaze. "What's wrong with you?" she folded her arms across her chest.
"I just thought you are really good."
"You smelled the gas and live."
She snorted. "Only kids would think of ways like that to hurt me."
"I already punished him. You won't be seeing him in the near future."
"You killed him." That wasn't a question. It was something that she knew he would do to Xu Jihan.
"Are you blaming me?"
She shook her head. "I wasn't surprised."
"Really? Am I really that evil?"
"Yes," she nodded. "Why are you here? I am busy."
"The creature that you gave me… died."
She gave a dramatic sigh. "I expected as much. It would be difficult to have it live in this world as this world have no magic."
