Others Summon Dragons, I Summon Legendary Knights novel Chapter 405

Chapter 405: You’re Afraid Of Me

Even after they left the Watchtower, Percival lingered around Lucy until she went home. Lucy walked into her room to pick up her headset. She grabbed it, took a step toward the exit, but paused and turned back to the window.

She approached it, swung the curtain open, and saw a blue-haired young man on the other side of the street. He leaned against the wall of another building, arms crossed.

Lucy’s eyes slowly widened in surprise. Percival tilted his head toward the window and their eyes met. He smiled, then waved his hand at her.

She couldn’t resist smiling and waving back. After unlocking the window, she slid it open. "It’s late. You should go home." Her voice echoed in the deserted street. It was already past seven, and this part of Paradise had no event that could keep people awake at night.

This area was purely residential.

He crossed the street, stood right below her window, and looked up. "See you tomorrow then."

Lucy leaned on the windowsill, watching him walk away. Her eyes were on him until she couldn’t see him anymore.

"Lucy!"

Suddenly, her mother yelled her name. She looked out one last time, then shut the window and left the room. When she got to the last staircase, her entire body froze when she saw Gabriel sitting at their dining table.

When... did he get here?

Her heart drummed.

"Sit down." Said her mother, who placed their dinner on the table and tapped a chair. Her cheeks were rosy and her eyes bright. It was more than a privilege for the Watchman, a man almost seen as a myth, to visit their home.

He had just appeared out of nowhere with a basket of fruits and a book about engineering mechanics.

Under her mother’s glare, Lucy had to force herself against her will to the table. When she sat down, her eyes went to Gabriel’s face.

He had a warm, innocent smile that almost made her doubt Isolde.

Clearing his throat, he picked up the cutleries and dug into their meal. "Wow." His eyes brightened, making her mother smile.

"Just wow. I haven’t tasted anything like this in a long time." Gabriel gasped, then looked at her. "Why aren’t you eating?"

Lucy flinched, making Gabriel raise an eyebrow. She picked up her cutleries. ’I’m dead.’

Lucy felt like waking up from this nightmare. What does this mean? She just wished this was a nightmare but, if it was, then didn’t that mean the care Percival had shown would also be just a dream?

She was conflicted.

Both Gabriel and her mother finished their meals, but she didn’t even go halfway. How could she have an appetite when the man who forcefully murdered millions just to ensure they served him was sitting right next to her?

She quickly left the chair. Telepathic speech won’t work because it was all connected to Gabriel. Gabriel was the medium through which telepathy worked in Paradise.

"Where are you going? I came here for you." Gabriel said, forcing her to stop right in her tracks.
