Athena's Night Attack and the Reversal of the Situation

The street was still bustling with people as Leon and Athena walked side by side toward the Starlit Heaven inn.

Athena looped her arm through Leon's, resting her cheek against him in a spoiled, lazy manner.

"What do you think of Elina's fortune-telling, Leon?" Athena suddenly inquired, catching Leon off guard.

He understood the intent behind her words and chuckled softly.

"Don't worry. Like I said before, fortune-telling isn't a true measure of our future," Leon replied casually. "The future is in our hands; we decide what happens. So, relax."

Though he spoke confidently, the results of his own fortune-telling still puzzled him.

"God-like powers, or surpassing them, huh?" Leon muttered to himself, taking a deep breath.

His curiosity about the middle-aged man, Nolan, grew. Not only was he suspicious of him, but Nolan also seemed to have a hidden agenda in approaching him.
