A wonderful mentor

Author's note: this is from Serina's point of view

I thought I am going to explode from frustration and embarrassment when Lazarus mentioned that three years ago I passed out after blowing up half of the villa. And he even said it was related to Duke!

Lazarus crossed the line and I was never this angry.

Who gave him the right to act as my protector?

Why did he talk about my emotional meltdown?

Doesn't he know that he is exposing my ability?

How am I supposed to face Duke after this?

Lazarus's behavior was so out of place that I nearly slapped him, and I had to get him away from Duke in order to clarify a few points.

I stomped inside the room on the first floor while trying to ease my frustration.

"What's wrong with you? Can't you tell that Duke is human?", I asked as soon as I closed the door behind us.
