Chapter 358 - LEAVE ME ALONE!
Aiden knew that the reason he had just shouted so loudly was probably because of the conversation he just had, however, it wasn't like he was about to mention it to the person that was right in front of him.
"Y-Yes, I'm coming," Aiden replied with his voice as febrile as possible.
He wanted to seem like a naive kid to the director as he thought it would have the greatest effects.
"Faster!"
Aiden immediately started walking faster when he heard such a thing. He knew that waiting around for no reason wouldn't help him, after all.
A few seconds later, it was Aiden's turn to be having a discussion with the director of the Magic Academy.
Aiden couldn't help but feel a little stressed even if he knew that there was nothing wrong that would be happening to him. David hadn't been able to see through his skill, so Aiden was safe. At least, he hoped he was.
"So, young man, what is that power of yours? How are you able to absorb mana?" David asked without losing a single moment.
He knew that he couldn't waste too much time with a student.
"Also, I was surprised that none of the teachers picked you to be their disciple, you would have been a great choice without a doubt."
'A great choice? Well, I guess,' Aiden thought as he couldn't help but find this conversation extremely ironic.
He knew where this conversation was going as this was almost the second time that he was experimenting it.
'Though I have to admit that it's weird... choosing me for a second time when there are so many students. I guess I really am that special, huh?'
Aiden smiled thinking about such a thing which confused the director immediately.
'She's still here, didn't she leave already?' Aiden thought as he slowly got closer to her, sitting right beside her.
As he did that, Evelynn slowly raised her head, wanting to know the person who was getting so close to her. When she saw that it was Alek she put her head back down as if not caring.
'Weird...'
"Hey, uh, are you okay?" Aiden asked with a worried tone.
He knew that he needed to act with a lot of carefulness as he didn't want to say the wrong thing at the moment.
However, even trying to sound like he was genuine, he didn't get any answers from Evelynn which hurt him quite a bit. He knew that he was under someone's else identity and that she had no idea who he was, but it still hurt.
Aiden didn't know what to do next as no matter how hard he tried to make her speak, she kept looking at the ground as if Aiden didn't even exist in the first place.
"Hey, what happened in there?" Aiden asked one last time in hopes that she would respond to him.
However, what happened next shocked him deeply.
"WHY DO YOU CARE SO MUCH?! FUCKING LEAVE ME ALONE!"
Evelynn had just imploded from the inside, she didn't know why she was acting in such a way but in her mind. It just felt like the right thing to do, maybe it wasn't but it was what she had decided to do.
Aiden was a little scared as this shouting truly came out of nowhere, and he even wondered if the director wouldn't come out of his office because of it. However, it seemed that he wouldn't as Aiden couldn't hear anything from that room.
'He probably left already, he's probably gone to search for me...'
Aiden dismissed his thoughts about the director as he knew that he couldn't leave Evelynn here without any help. She had defended him after all, and he would try to help her because of that.
He put his arm around her shoulders bringing her closer to him.
