Chapter 84: Strange Words (2)
Uh Leonhard?
He blinked once as he stared at her.
Sometimes I think you have a knack for making people uncomfortable.
I apologize if Ive said anything inappropriate.
Enough! she declared, like she was fed up already.
Its late today. Lets go back to the dormitory.
Yumia started walking that way immediately. Han walked beside her with a smile. He found Yumias behavior charming.
The strange feelings in his heart vanished.

He went with Glesia to a park in the academy. They walked around the place without saying a word.
Glesia was too quiet. He thought that she had looked for him to talk to him. But if she wouldnt, he didnt want to be the one to initiate conversation either.
He diverted his attention to the park. Even though it was midnight, it wasnt that dark because the moonlight illuminated it dimly.
The Academy also looks great at night.
He didnt know that it could have this charm because he always returned to the dormitory on time. A smile appeared on his face when it crossed his mind how long it had been since he had walked at night with a woman at this hour. He felt deeply moved for no reason.
The Great Royal Academy did not have any rules that prohibited cadets of different genders from going out at night. However, the dormitories were separated by gender. Going into a dorm that belonged to the other gender was a major breach of the rules. Thats why they came to this park to talk.
Some Academy rules are pretty lax.
In theory, access to the bedrooms of the opposite gender was strictly forbidden, but they could not prevent the cadets from meeting secretly if they wanted to.
Eventually, cadets of different genders would and did fall in love with each other. Romance was relevant to the novel. In addition, Leonhard was an alpha male who naturally attracted women.
He enjoyed this aspect of the novel. He preferred a competent hero with numerous heroines, rather than an ugly or mediocre hero with beautiful heroines. It wasnt just looks, but also Leonhards personality that endeared him to others.
Han Seong. A voice interrupted his thoughts.
Yes, Glesia? He guessed that now Glesia would reveal the reason she had looked him out.
I think we should meet four times a week. Her words were unexpected.
I cant believe it.
Two meetings a week is not enough.
He couldnt understand why she said it with such determination. She said it like she was in charge. Her blue eyes were very serious, as if he had to accept it.
It could seem like were a couple.
It was a ridiculous thought. He knew she wasnt acting that way because she liked him. But others would, and with their perceptions
Im sorry. I dont think I can. That ended up being why he was able to respond nonchalantly.
I can give you all the money you want.
Its not about money. Its impossible for me to meet with you four times a week. At first, he had also wanted to meet often with Glesia, but his situation had since changed radically. He now preferred to concentrate on his training. He had received hints about a skill he could receive.
Although personal relationships were important, he had to prioritize his growth. He hoped to get closer still to Carly so he could gain access to her private training camp more often, where he could use the magical engineering items she had. Posted only on
Why? Do you hate me?
I dont hate you.
Then why cant you be with me? I can give you any money you want.
He was a little embarrassed. Her words could easily be misinterpreted. He was clueless about Glesias thoughts.
Anyway, explain to me the reason.
Reason? Because I want to be with you.
Please dont say such strange things.
He involuntarily avoided Glesias steady gaze.
Who wouldnt be thrilled to hear a beautiful woman like Glesia say that?
