Pablo, who had been squatting cross-legged behind the back of the car, remained speechless. He had not intended to accompany them on this journey but had ended up here coincidentally.

To his surprise, Drake had been misleading his young apprentice in his absence.

Pablo lightly tapped at the imaginary snowflakes that drifted outside the window.



When Lilly caught sight of her master, her eyes sparkled, and she immediately began, “Master, I…”

Pablo swiftly interjected, “No, you don’t.”

Lilly’s expression turned puzzled, wondering why her master would preemptively reject her request.

She had simply wanted to ask her master to accompany her in investigating why Aunt Lisa hadn’t come down from the mountain for such a long time!

“That’s alright…” Lilly propped her soft-gloved hand under her chin and anxiously peered out of the car window.

Pablo hesitated for a moment before finally uttering, “Yes.”

Lilly was perplexed and asked, “What?”

Pablo acknowledged his failure. Alas, in the face of this young apprentice, he could not adhere to his principles at all.

“There is a third option,” he said.

Lilly’s eyes sparkled with hope, and she eagerly inquired, “What is it?”

Pablo replied, “Exile,”

Lilly’s confusion deepened.

What is that?

Pablo explained, “It means letting her wander the world endlessly, never stopping, with her soul always on the move.”

“Helping those who can be helped, accumulating the virtues until you can be pardoned…”

Lilly fell silent, her mind filled with questions. Wasn’t this just another form of sending her aunt away?

She gazed at the snow outside the car window, her voice trailing off, and the flicker of hope that had momentarily brightened in her eyes faded away.
