Elias Ayla POV:
It was late at night and sleep had just absorbed me.
Boom.
A blow-up was heard in the room next to mine
It took me away from the beauty of sleep and I made my way running. Swiftly but cautiously.
The door was opened just a bit so I could peek inside.
That instant, the katana I was holding in my right hand fell to the ground and its clattering sound got everyone's attention.
I pushed open the door slowly.
"Elias!" Luke ran towards me in a full sprint the moment he saw me.
"Phwu!" Breath left my lungs as I fell to the ground on my back.
"Luke? It's Luke, right? I'm not wrong, right?" I don't even know what I was trying to say.
"It is… it is me, Elias. It's been over nine years…"
"Nine years, huh… I see, that explains the change in your features to look manlier."
"What do you mean manlier, as if I wasn't like that before."
"I mean… you can't blame me, can you."
