☀️ Arselia and Akonia

- If you think about it, our fates are somewhat similar, only yours led you down the path of a priest, and mine down the path of a phantom. If our lives had taken a slightly different turn, maybe you would have been the "bandit," and I the priest. And in general, perhaps our meeting wasn't just a coincidence. - He smiled again. - It's funny, I never thought about such things before... And why can't you just tell Bazhenka everything as it is? It would be better than hiding it from her and risking another misunderstanding.

- Yes, I'm stronger than many. You know, the fact that we're friends is an ironic twist of fate, because according to all the circumstances, it should never have happened. But that's what we have. Her well-being is important to me, and to some extent, it's my responsibility. I can't say for sure that I would reconcile with Akonia for her sake... But I would think about it carefully.

- After our meeting, nothing seems surprising to me anymore. According to the "circumstances," we shouldn't be talking to each other now, but that's what we have, and I'm infinitely glad for this ironic twist of fate.

- How did Lady-san react to the news? She probably didn't say anything, but she must have been at least a little surprised... I hope she didn't think too much.

- She seems to be happy about the opportunity to work with you, so... Take care of her while I'm gone; she's a good worker.
