Identity Crisis (2)

Time flew by as quick as Alucard took down the maiden. Staying true to his word, Ashton did not entertain any of Avalina's attempts at talking to him. Apart from a general courteous greeting, Ashton spent no time around Avalina. 

Soon it was time for the guests to depart. They had overstayed their welcome as a result of the instance dungeon popping up. But now that all of it was over, none of them wanted to piss off Alucard who was known to despise being around too many people, despite his status as the Overlord. 

Among those people, was Avalina. Who had to return to her lab and continue her research. Ashton's behaviour was churning her insides, but she knew it was for the better to let him go now. Their worlds were meant to cross each other so soon, to begin with.
