While Aerine was practicing and getting used to her new state, Lucian was leaning his back leisurely on a seat; his eyes were shut. He knew that his contractee was doing her best, and he didn't want to disrupt her concentration because of his presence.
What Mai said was right; the moment they entered the mansion, their every action was under his surveillance. Of course, it wasn't that Lucian would also deliberately monitor them either. He didn't have such habits.
Lucian was always like this most of the time; he was really too idle. He could only wait for Aerine to visit the mansion more formally, so he would have something to do for once.
Suddenly, the temperature increased without warning. The room also showed signs of decay, as though countless years had passed in the blink of an eye.
