Not just because of the promise to make a change with Ansel, but because Ravenna possessed no less determination than Seraphina.
She firmly believed that Ansel was still the same child from three years ago, who, like her, yearned to change the world. Even if he was no longer naive, he still held a passion for this world.
If the enemy attempting to extinguish this passion was Fate, then she would become the god from the machine to shatter Fate.
Ansel was momentarily stunned, then gently grasped Ravenna's hand, speaking softly:
"Yes, I promised you."
Never again... resort to all means, regardless of the cost?
The young Hydral, tenderly responding to his friend, silently questioned himself in his heart.
Shortly after their conversation ended, a maid announced the visit of a certain duke.
"An unexpected visit. I hope I am not intruding upon you and Miss Zeigler, Lord Hydral."
