#Chapter190
Leona realized that she shouldn’t have asked that question, but Io’s words lingered in her mind. He stays silent, cold as ever, way different from the man that was in awe the moment that he saw her.
/"Tell me, what is it that you can’t confront?/" she asks him.
/"Leona, let it go. We will go, isn’t that what you wanted?/" he tries to brush this off.
/"Not like this!./"
/"Then, can we not go?./" Leona feels that Io’s words weren’t random, but aiming at something.
/"You know this can’t happen./"
/"Why? You can defeat Asher without it! We will all train and he will be easy to take down/" Aryan tries to change her mind, but it isn’t working. She feels angry, going back on his promise.
/"If I were to cut your hand and hide it somewhere but you had the chance to get it back, would you not go?/" she tries to make him understand.
/"If it meant to hurt you, I prefer to never claim it again!./"
