Chapter 52
When Elodie turned to look at Eisen, he didn’t react much to the comment about appearances.
Instead of chasing after the boy, he carefully looked Elodie up and down.
It was a meticulous gaze, one meant to check if she was injured.
"What did that brat say?"
It seemed he hadn’t heard their conversation.

A tutor? A close friend? Or was it an idea planted in him by someone from outside?
After a moment of deliberation, Elodie responded.
"Nuffin'." (Nothing.)

Right now, there was something far more important to focus on.
