章節 139: The end of a long journey [3]

I stared at Aurelia and the others for a long time. 

At that moment, recollections of my time with them flashed before my eyes. 

They may have not been alive. 

But to me, they were. 

".....You came back." 

It was a familiar voice that broke me out of my memories. Before I knew it, Leon was standing beside me, similarly staring at the scene with his usually stoic face. 

"You were taking longer than I expected." 

He handed me something. 

It was a small pearl. 

"It pulsed not too long ago. That's why I knew you were finally back." 

I grabbed the pearl. 

It was a relic that belonged to the Evenus Households. Its purpose was to detect the general location of those it had locked on. In this case, me. With Leon being my knight and all, it was something that he naturally had. 

If something were to happen to me, he'd be able to find me at any time. 

"..." 

I handed it back to him.
