Chapter 100
Yes, just something I need to handle on my own," I replied, hoping he wouldn't press further.
To my relief, he didn't. With a resigned sigh, he agreed and told me to be careful.
As nightfall settled in, the academy grounds grew quiet.
The streetlamps cast a soft, white glow across the deserted pathways, their light as gentle as moonlight.
The trees lining the streets swayed slightly in the cool evening breeze, their leaves rustling softly, adding a whispering undertone to the night.
adows danced on the ground, stretching and shrinking as the lights flickered occasionally, creating a serene yet eerie atmosphere.
The academy, usually bustling with life, now stood still, as if holding its breath in anticipation of what was to come.
It wasn't long before Rolin arrived.
Even in the dim light, he looked as handsome as ever, though there was an unmistakable weariness about him, as if he had just finished a long, exhausting run. His hair was slightly disheveled, and there was a hint of fatigue in his eyes.
Yet, instead of his usual playful banter, he got straight to the point.
"I've been doing some digging," Rolin began, his voice low and serious.
"The group of hunters who chased your parents-they're the same ones who came after me back then. They were pure bounty hunters, working for money." The mention of those hunters sent a shiver down my spine.
Hunters were a ruthless breed, people who hunted others for a living.
While most races had signed peace treaties and pacts over the years, hunters were still out there, taking on bloody contracts for the highest bidder.
The thought that these same hunters might have played a role in my mother's fate made my stomach churn.
Rolin continued, his expression darkening.
"I've tracked down one of the hunters from that group. He admitted that they took on a contract to go after your parents. But... something happened. Your mother managed to get away. They never completed the job." I held my breath, my heart racing as I processed his words.
"So... she might still be alive?"
The question escaped my lips before I could stop it, the hope in my voice undeniable.
Rolin nodded slowly.
"It's possible. But her exact whereabouts... I don't know. I'm sorry."
