The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage romance Capítulo 2820

Frank turned toward Hilarion just then.

He was surprised that the man was as principled as Lofty despite his modest abilities, even instructing an average apprentice like Apoc to save the video as evidence in his phone.

In other words, Hilarion was absolutely ready to take responsibility for the death of Larkin's wife.

There was a logical reason as to why they did not actually seek out Larkin to apologize personally as well. They were still under the impression that the lotus sitter was still at large, and no one in the Skywide School would want the trouble waiting at that village.

In fact, Hilarion was looking Larkin right in the eyes, determined for absolution. "If you still take exception, you can take my life in return. Skywide School is no major faction, but we have a reputation to protect regardless!"

Larkin shook his head. "The blame lies with the culprit and the culprit alone. I can't blame you further, and you've helped our village in the past. There's no reason for me to hold further grief."

Hilarion sighed. "The more reasonable you are, the guiltier I'd feel for not being proper guardians, even taking an innocent life. I'm afraid the fall of Skywide School has come, and under my watch."

He suddenly choked and coughed out a mouthful of dark blood.

Apoc was ready to help, but Frank stopped him.

"Step outside!" he told Lofty and Larkin as well.

They had no idea why Frank would ask that but trusted him and left.

When it was just Hilarion and Frank in the room, Frank walked up, asking, "You've sinned, haven't you?"

"I knew I couldn't hide it from you!"

Hilarion smiled in wry amusement. "I was so obsessed with taking down the lotus sitter that I used a technique my predecessors declared taboo. Now it's consuming me, and I don't have much time left.

"But if I die, so be it… I just don't know how I should close the Pandora's box that I've opened with my own hands. But who knows if maybe he could!"
