The Author's POV

Chapter 393

Melissa found herself roaming the halls after separating from the others.

Passing through a group of individuals, Melissa clenched her teeth and mumbled.

"…What does he want from me now?"

Melissa has a strong urge to just turn around and leave the premise, but she knew that she could do nothing but listen to his words.

To make matters worse, her current mood was not very stable.

After what she had just witnessed, how could her mood still be stable? Although she knew that Ren was still alive, a part of her didn't really believe what Amanda had told her in the past.

She was a pragmatic person.

What she witnessed that day suggested to her that the probability of Ren surviving was almost impossible.

As such, she only partially believed what Amanda said. 'Turns out she was right.' Melissa quietly murmured.

Who would've thought? He was actually still alive.

One of the only people that can get on their nerves whenever they spoke.

"I swear, I'm going to lose it one day."

She shook her frustrations with a sigh, then quietly headed for a particular section of the hall where a large wooden door stood.

"This should be the place right?"

Halting her steps in front of the door, Melissa took out a small flask from her dimensional space and directly chugged it.

Gulp—

"Haaaa.."

Wiping her mouth, she glimpsed at the empty flask in her hand before putting it away.

Smacking her lips, her face cringed a little.

"I've got to improve the taste of this."

What she just drank was the same thing that she had given Ren before.

It was pretty much a life-saver for her. It basically helped her calm her nerves. If not for it, she would've probably gone on a similar rampage.

Fortunately, because of the situation, no one questioned her about the potion when she gave it to Ren. Saved her a lot of explaining.

"...Alright."

Once she felt her nerves calm down a little, taking another deep breath and raising her hand, she knocked on the door.

To Tok—

"Come in."

Not long after she knocked, An emotionless voice sounded from behind the door. Hearing the voice, Melissa's brows furrowed tightly.

Grabbing onto the doorknob, she slowly entered the room and closed the door behind her.

I sat down on a comfortable chair. My shoulders instantly relaxed.

Because of what happened before, I was forced to change my clothes.

Gritting my teeth, I extended my hand and grabbed a drink. My whole body was numb, and if not for the pills I took before, I would've been in extreme pain.

I was currently back inside the hall which was crowded with people. From how everyone was still happily conversing, it was clear that no one had noticed what had happened outside.
