At least ten years, until the next tier!
It was far too long, and Christian wasn't prepared to wait for that.
He intended to go around the problem in another way.
And he also intended to free up one idle slot for the technique for his sister anyway, so it worked out just fine.
While going through the many thoughts in his mind, Christian found himself standing in front of Eva's room.
And so, without knocking or saying anything, he entered.
… It had become a habit, considering how close they were now.
But when he saw Eva turn her head to the side with a small chuckle and say, "You're here?"
He couldn't help but pause.
Because he noticed how she tried to hide her face.
… And how she had actually been crying.
Christian felt like an idiot in that moment.
He should have gone with her from the very beginning.
