A Second Encounter (2)

{Rel's POV}

[Paris, Champs-Élysées - Dawn's Blade Arena, A-League: 2nd Stadium]

My eyes widened seeing Valencia shaking in almost what appears to be fear. I couldn't believe it... but of all people, why him?

Florian Alexandre Etienne Valois.

The current king of France, and Gerrard Freya, the leading number 1 guild in the world – the two should've been on good terms according to how the story went. But I'm sure there wasn't any fallout between the two during the whole story.

It wasn't making sense at all.

What Valencia should've been for Alessandro was a mentor who guided him on the right way of leadership... but that could only exist if she was still in her third year as a senior.

Then... I get it now.

From what I could only assume of Alessandro's superiority complex, his royal status probably made Valencia seem unimportant. This likely created a distance between the two of them.
