Penelope's Guilt

Penelope Zircon stood alone in the hallway. Not far from her was the entrance to the banquet hall, where perhaps her friends had been waiting for her.

But she really felt like she couldn't get in there… in the midst of people who had just returned from the war.

Penelope was ashamed. She had told herself many times that the war wasn't her fault. But the war began with a declaration that occurred at the party she attended that day.

She felt guilty because, at that time Ezra was protecting her from Celine's humiliation, and everything ended in chaos. One could say, this was what indirectly triggered everything.

If she didn't anger Celine, there might be a solution about Sorcery that was better than war—

"Miss Zircon."

Penelope flinched. She looked to her back and saw Heath standing with a beautiful petite woman by his side. There was also a man with black hair and red eyes who was so handsome.

She remembered them all. She had obtained information about them.
