Repay the Favor

Patriarch Khafra's gaze sharpened. 

"It's been long enough." He said coldly. 

There wasn't a strict time limit on sending in participants, but that didn't mean that they were perfectly lax. There were methods of pressure that Patriarch Khafra could use, and some of those even included losing even more points. 

All of this was just a formality at this point. Whether Leonel sent someone in or not didn't matter. He had only really spoken for the sake of regaining face. The rest of it was irrelevant to him. 

He had all the time in the world. So long as Leonel stalled for any longer, he would just deduct more of his points. 

This was just the first step of their plan and they weren't on a timeline crunch… yet. 

Leonel completely ignored him, closing his eyes and taking deep breaths. The entire rest of the world was meaningless to him, he felt at peace so long as he could feel Aina in his arms.
