Knowing that he would say that, I nodded. “Okay, I understand.”

Although I did not know what he planned to do, it had nothing to do with me. After all, I did not plan to rely on someone else to avenge me for all of my past sufferings. Except for myself, everyone else merely served as support.

As I had to go to J City tomorrow, I went to bed early that night. Yet, as expected, I was still plagued by insomnia.
