A retired mercenary, living alone in a forest during a winter where the sun was seldom seen, was bound to feel bored and lonely.
So Pasanin truly didn't want the Organization of Water to just leave like that; these past few months, he'd been able to engage in the most familiar tasks, doing the work he was best at, even finding that shooting practice felt much more invigorating than when he was alone.
However, when Yang Yi mentioned that they were leaving, Pasanin didn't say a word, but the look of loss on his face could not be hidden at all.
"Why not come with us?" Yang Yi couldn't help suggesting. "You're retired now, so you shouldn't be able to say you don't have the time, right?"
Yang Yi couldn't help but extend the invitation, but Pasanin just smiled and shook his head, then said softly, "I won't go. I like it here, living in the city is unbearable for me."
