I Don't Think I Can Be Gentle Anymore / Good girl, let's do it together

Rita no longer needed to live those nerve-racking days.

"Miss Bronya, thank you for recruiting me into E.T. in Europe."

"Why are you still bringing that up now..."

"If it weren't for you, I probably wouldn't have had the chance to get so close to Xu Qi, and I wouldn't have the life I have now."

Bronya's expression darkened. If only I'd known, I never would have hired her.

"Miss Bronya, have you thought about what you'll do after Alahato SEED ends?"

"I'll take two months off first. I'll think about what to do afterward. In any case, it'll definitely still involve Alahato. It's my lifelong dream—to restore Alahato to its former glory."

Leaning against the railing, Rita smiled sincerely at Bronya's idealistic, determined declaration.

"After SEED ends, I want to resign from E.T."

Bronya's expression tightened.

"What happened? Why?"

"Please don't misunderstand, Miss Bronya." Rita brushed back the loose strands of hair by her ear and revealed a charming smile. "I just feel that it's time to live a life of my own."

After all, her dear best friend was about to truly become her best friend.

Don't you agree, Durandal?

Chapter 1003, 995: It Seems I Can't Be Gentle Anymore

In the small room upstairs, Sirin struggled to raise her head. A little milk that she hadn't finished drinking still seemed to be dripping from the corner of her mouth. The little girl glared fiercely at Xu Qi.

"So this is what you called being gentle?"

Xu Qi only smiled without answering, while Seele, who was lying to the side, finally seemed to have recovered as well.

She slowly sat up. Instead of paying attention to what Xu Qi was doing, she first lowered her head and looked at herself. The milky-white fluid made the girl's face flush.
