As Lily disappeared, most of the people scattered, resuming their hunt for resources.
Natalia arrived beside Almond and elbowed, "Sup. How do you feel now that she's gone?"
Almond turned to her with a wry smile. "Worried."
"Humph, you deserve it. When you suddenly disappeared without anyone knowing, and how people just said you died somewhere, do you know how Lily felt? Yet, she maintained her belief. And she was training maniacally because she knew getting stronger was the only way. If she became all-powerful, she would be able to find you."
"Mhm…" Almond nodded. He now truly realizes how Lily must have felt when he suddenly vanished into some unknown place with no way of knowing his status.
And now that Lily went to the third layer, he could feel anxiety and worry, which Lily must have felt way more, but she still fought off.
Seeing Almond's expression, Kira couldn't help but bite her lips.
Noah glanced at her briefly, his eyes gentle. 'I'll keep waiting.'
