Chapter 117: Reunion II (7)
“February fifteenth.”
“…What?”
“It’s your birthday, isn’t it? And you’re the same age as me.” Apollonia quietly shared, not scolding or reprimanding him.
“What…? I don’t know why you know that, but what’s so important about it?”
“Your favorite food is apples because Syd liked them as well. You wield spears better than swords. Your idol is Pascal I. You started walking faster than anyone your age, even though you were the last to say your first word. You loved music even though you didn’t have any talent for playing instruments. And because you learned about farming and hunting so quickly, you have the potential to be a good lord.”
Personal details about Nox flowed from Apollonia’s lips, a revelation that was unbelievable considering she didn’t even know who he was moments ago. Nox stared at her with widened eyes, unable to believe that every word she uttered about him was accurate.
“…is what Syd told me,” she added before looking at Nox again.
