The Halloween Event

The next day, Leonel pestered Ren over the phone, asking about his time alone with Evie.

"Nothing happened," Ren said, annoyed. He didn't know why he was even annoyed. Was it because of Leonel's never-ending questions or because Evie logged out the moment she got Meriyaah's cloak?

She didn't have to be so obvious about not wanting to be with him even for a second after they got what they wanted.

"Are you sure that nothing happened?" Leonel took a deep breath on the other line. "And here I was, making all sorts of excuses to Saya, so she wouldn't bother you. I feel like all those hours of entertaining her had gone to waste."

Leonel already told Ren that he knew the whole story, and Ren didn't know whether it was a good thing that Leonel knew.

Leonel promised to be careful and that he wouldn't do anything unnecessary to prompt Saya into posting Evie's video.

And Ren trusted Leonel to keep his mouth shut.
