Chapter 193 – The Seer [4]

To see such a powerful and incredible woman not even able to be composed when faced with that kind of situation?
To see a woman — one who could see through you and see all your possible futures in an instant with frightening ease — crumble like a castle made of sand just because a young boy showed her a little bit of affection?
Was that… surprising?
