News From Adrien

[The Previous Night]

"Haa…"

Rey lay on his bed, contemplating the meeting that would take place the following day, and all he could make was a sigh.

He was planning to pitch his plan of allying with the denizens of the south, and he could already picture the image of disapproval that he would get if he did so.

That didn't mean he was going to give up, but still… it was a bit dreadful to think about.

Right as he concluded on that thought, another one regarding Adrien popped into his head.

'We didn't particularly leave things off on a positive note, and I already confirmed from Emil that he had been trying to seduce her, especially after noticing how my relationship with her was strained.'

That would have brought into question the boy's reliability, but Rey already knew he couldn't trust Adrien completely.
