ORIGIN_ESSENCE

Honestly, I would've loved to drop some spoilers here about the story, but I realized that the first-three chapters are enough to get you glued to your phones.

She probably knew that fact, maybe she just wanted reassurance like everyone.

'I know. I just wish I had kept quiet. I learnt he had his first trial today.'

I did not need a prophet to tell me that was the reason she was at my house, she had made it obvious enough.

'That's why you're here tonight. I'll just save you the stress and tell you the hearing was adjourned.'
