"Senior, you are annoying," Camilla spoke out. She did not like the way Max started interfering in her life. She chose her way to gain the magic power. She dealt with Anesthesia because of the power. So at that point, if Max started interfering, she would not be able to gain what she wanted.
Max's heart sank at Camilla's harsh words. He had hoped that she would understand his genuine concern for her well-being, but it seemed that she was determined to push him away.
"I'm sorry if I'm being annoying," Max said, his voice tinged with hurt. "I just care about you, Camilla, and I don't want to see you get hurt."
Camilla's expression softened slightly, but her resolve remained firm. "Hurt?" She sighed. "I appreciate your concern, but I know what I'm doing," she replied, her tone defiant. "I have my own path to follow, and I won't let anyone stand in my way."
