Chapter 87 - Side story: Children Grow Up (2)

Joshua and Lilianne were assigned to different classes, even though Luca ended up in the same class as Lilianne.
That night, Joshua sat on his dorm bed and punched his pillow quite several times.

It was all thanks to her beautiful looks, surprisingly straightforward personality, and the rumors about her remarkable abilities that had already spread far and wide.

It could’ve been because she was different from what they expected, or they were jealous of her abilities, or perhaps because of some other reason out of many others...

"They’re not my friends, after all."
