No witnesses

Mia followed Vaner outside his mansion. For the first time in three days, she ditched her bed and dared to enter the greater area of the sect. 

'I didn't expect that leaving this building would be so hard,' Mia thought, clenching her teeth. 

Even though it was filled with the atmosphere of emptiness and grief without Arthur, this mansion was still the place where she made the best memories of her entire life. 

In this place, she experienced her first time, where she trained alongside Arthur, where she lived her daily life with him...

'No, that's not right,' Mia thought, biting her lips as she decisively turned her eyes away from the building. 'I'm nostalgic towards this place not because of this place itself but because of Arthur,' she realized.

She then raised her head high and raised the pace of her movement, quickly catching up with Vaner. 

But soon, her slightly improved mood was devastated again.
