"...? " Lei Xi'er's eyebrows slightly raised.
He originally thought the other was frowning just out of frustration from a failed perception attempt.
Yet he didn't expect that the other was completely unaffected by his consolation, instead... sat deeper, deeper into concentration.
Not pretending, more like immersed in it?
Pretending that well? Lei Xi'er thought in his heart.
No, it should be said... it's impossible to pretend that well.
Ten minutes passed, and Louis still hadn't opened his eyes.
Twenty minutes passed, his breathing still as steady as a monk in meditation.
After thirty minutes, he finally slowly exhaled and opened his eyes.
At that moment, Lei Xi'er was truly a bit shaken.
"Did you sense anything?" he asked cautiously, lowering his voice.
Louis nodded slightly, his expression calm: "Just a little... a faint, cool thing, as if it floated in from the air."
"..." Lei Xi'er was stunned.
His first reaction was: What a joke?
