Chapter 18: The Tattoo (1)
I quietly observed Victoria as we ate She seemed different from her usual self; she's been silent all the while At first, I intended to avoid her Especially now, she knew everything about me She kneho I am She knew my secret But it seemed unnecessary; she herself was indifferent about what she had learned
But I can't put my confidence in her She's still the bitch thatillusion I couldn't even feel anything when those things happened to me in real life But because I can't control my senses within her illusion, she'd made me rather feel all those pains The devil
The group was silent while eating This lull ardly strange since during ordinary circumstances they're always in clutter mess Maybe, they didn't want the same drama from earlier or it could also be because the faculties of titan Academy were present here, as well The teachers were seated at the elevated part of the Hall, facing us I've only seen al They all looked strict; they rarely srace, and talked in whispered conversation It'd been like I was facing the royal family
I glanced atwas delicious I would admit I've only seen all of these foods for the first tinize what they were made of I suddenly remembered my life outside; that and Lucas and his family
”You don't have an appetite?”
I turned to Cain atching me He was in the midst of his meal; the fork was suspended towards his mouth I didn't answer
”Don't you like the food here?”
I heard Victoria scoffed ”She'll eat if she wants But who can eat in this kind of atmosphere anyway?”
I lifted my head and understood what sheat our table, even Teacher Apollo and Miss Aura did It was as if they've been talking about us Actually, it's quite obvious ere their topic
”What is their probleain?” said Victoria to no one in particular
Luna whispered to otten overboard”
”Another oh- hed after
I smiled to myself Apparently, this was not the first ti lectured I wondered if it was always like this They wouldn't get along with each other except when they have this kind of conversation
