"You know me so well, huh?" Jeanne asked.
It was because he knew her too well that he was mistaken.
Therefore, because time was tight, all he did was tell Nox to stay and send her back when he left. He did not have Nox wait for her.
Then, when she came back, he found that she had left.
Just like that, she disappeared from Harken.
It was not that he had never thought of looking for her, but his body was too weak then. When he had the energy to look for her, he seemed to have figured out some things.
In fact, being with him was not necessarily good for her. He could not even protect himself at that time, let alone Jeanne.
He even thought it was a good thing that she left.
Once he completed his mission, he would look for her all over the world. However, if he did not… he would probably have died.
Forgetting him was the best thing for her.
