"Who are you?!" Anastasia narrowed her eyes at the newcomer, not minding his mumbling.

Over a long time, they had seen countless people blame them for not being able to save their loved ones.

"Wait!" She said, "He's Lucas Morningstar of the 37th Crane squad. He reports to me. He was also in the same class in the academy as us."

Nero and Anastasia frowned in confusion. Obviously, they couldn't remember him, but if Amelia says so, she must be right.
