Chapter 226- A Letter From The Academy (Part 3)

Acht felt himself getting angrier and angrier. Not on Leislet and Scarlett nor was it on what they said. It was because he felt lost and was unable to understand what they meant with their words.

He wanted to know how he was helpful because he desired to see the change that went through him during all these years. He wanted to see for himself that he became better.

So, with a quiet tone, he asked.

"Can you explain to me? I want to know. I want to know how I was able to help you?"

Leislet stood up and walked toward him silently. Then, she cupped his face in her hands and made him look her deep in the eyes. He didn't try to release himself nor did he try to avert his eyes.

"Look at me. Do I look like I am lying to you? Sigh, you want examples? Fine…You, Acht, had saved my life multiple times. You saved my world multiple times and you helped me reach many great goals that I could never dream of achieving. Isn't that enough?" 

Scarlett also spoke after her.
