I came back to Leonamon, and the first thing I noticed was that Elise was still here.
She told me earlier that she wanted to hang around for a little while before heading back to the underworld, and honestly, I didn't have the heart to refuse her. I told her she could stay, and she was actually enjoying herself here more than I expected.
I wasn't going to complain, though. If it meant I could get my hands on that ass one more night, I'd be willing to do just about anything.
"Leon! You're back!" Elise shouted the moment she caught sight of me.
Her eyes lit up, and in an instant, she rushed forward, throwing herself into my arms. It had only been a week since I'd returned to the academy, but for her, it seemed like a year had passed. She hugged me so tightly it was as if she was terrified I'd disappear again.
"Are you enjoying yourself here?" I asked with a small smile, though my ribs were already starting to feel the pressure.
