Sangfroid was also surprised by this question. He raised an eyebrow, but Vladstin waved his hand. "I'm just making sure. The Leron we can trust the most is the one right after Ofelia's song. We must ask him this everytime he was sung to."
That does make sense. But Sangfroid does not like the idea that he was fooled. No one likes to be tricked, no one likes to be betrayed.
He saw Leron nervously gulp and lick his lips. "I-Is that so...? Well, I... Yesterday..... I lasted for..."
He kept trailing off, adding to their suspicions.
But then, Leron suddenly gave him a look. It was a look of fear.
Fear?
Why would Leron be scared of him?
It was different from fearing something big and dangerous. It is more of the fear of being caught, of looking at someone you have wronged straight in the eye. A child's stare at his parent catching him red-handed, a prisoner's stare at the family of the man he accidentally killed.
