Leon had no idea what to say to that. He had unconsciously repeated his father's words to him, blurting it out without thinking.
Even though Evan was only a year older, he was surprisingly sharp for his age. He somehow knew things that Leon didn't, and he could also read people's intentions without having to pester them with incessant questions. Leon sometimes wondered if that was the effect of being a Summoner and if Evan somehow had the ability to read minds.
Then again, if Evan could really read minds, Leon's secret would've been revealed by now.
The fact that he was a Guardian.
And an Otherworlder Guardian, to be exact.
It was still strange for him to think about. Thanks to his father forbidding him to know more about the Otherworlders and those who were 'cursed' like him, Leon had little to no information about who he really was and what his purpose was. All he knew was that he was somehow connected to the Calamity and that he also carried a 'curse' with him.
