章節 554: Awkward Realization

After Kuzon left with Ana, and our team lost one member, awkward silence took control…

… But only for a few seconds.

"Why did you let him take her? Why does Ana have to pay for your defeat?"

The person speaking was, of course, Lemi.

I sighed at the girl, not knowing if she would understand the reason behind what I did. Perhaps not even Ana would appreciate it at the moment.

'There's no point explaining it…' I glanced at Maria, and her expressionless face spoke volumes.

A glance at Aloe Vida gave me the assurance that at least she was on my side.

"Let's all calm ourselves." Neron stepped up.

It was probably a good choice, considering I was tired at the moment.

"It's been a long day, so why don't we return to our base and relax?"

"Yeah, good call…" Lemi murmured, finally leaving me alone.

I could tell that she was still angry, though. Considering the fact that Ana was the closest person to her at the moment, I made a big blunder by separating the two.
