Two weeks. That was what was on the screen.
Leon couldn't help but just stare with an open mouth. Who won't do that when their paradox ability was locked for that long?
He chuckled drily, looking here and there as if still finding it hard to believe. "I mean.... why would my ability be locked for two weeks? I could always use it after three days but-uh?" He squinted his eyes, drawing closer to the screen as it switched interfaces.
One could tell he was expecting some good news with the expression that wrapped his face until he moved away from the screen with a sigh.
"Urgh... forget it..."
The red screen dissolved in the air behind him, who was moving to the entrance gate. Leon knew what he was going to meet now - those he had to feed lie to. Not exactly a lie, but would be better being called a disguise. Or fake rehearsal... whatever, he had to let them believe he really escaped by death's door.
