Villain Ch 1312. A Puppy That Only Trusts Its Owner
Allen turned, his gaze following Larissa's gesture. It didn't take long to spot Alexander. He was standing a few paces behind Elio, looking almost exactly like his priest avatar in Hell's Gate—soft-spoken, timid, and shy to the point of being awkward. But what really caught Allen off guard was how much of the in-game Alexander bled into real life. He wasn't just shy—he looked downright uncomfortable, as though the crowd itself might swallow him whole.
"Wow," Allen muttered, his voice tinged with disbelief. "He's even more shy in real life."
"I know, right?" Larissa said, her tone amused. "He's been tailing Elio the entire night. Even when Elio was talking to you earlier, Alexander wasn't far behind."
Allen's eyes narrowed, and sure enough, Alexander was lingering nearby, shuffling his feet nervously but never straying too far from Elio. It was almost endearing in a way, but also slightly baffling.
