Chiffon was currently seated on William's lap, with her head resting on his shoulder.
Ever since they had returned to William's room in the Boy's Dormitory, Chiffon refused to leave his side. The Half-Elf wanted to ask her some questions regarding the six men, but decided to put it on hold for the time being.
Chiffon was in no condition to answer any questions, so William decided to just stay by her side until her fears subsided. The little girl's body would shudder from time to time, even though she was enclosed in William's protective embrace.
Clearly, she had suffered some kind of trauma at the hands of the six mercenaries that were commissioned to make her life miserable.
"Don't worry," William coaxed the trembling girl in his embrace. "I will not let them hurt you again. I promise."
