After Heeseung walked away, I assisted the team in sealing the entrance with the Shielded Rune. We entered the mansion and rested from the sun at last. When I went to the entrance hall, many memories returned to me; like a wildfire, they were uncontrollable, heated, and damaging.
"You can feel at home. The bedrooms are upstairs; you can choose any room you'd like," I looked at my teammates and glanced at Heeseung occasionally. He appeared upset, unsettled, and uncomfortable. Perhaps he was apprehensive of the new place, or does it have to do with his question regarding this mansion?
"Thanks, Jake! Let's go, Sunoo!" Sunghoon excitedly said before dragging Sunoo.
"Hey! Wait! Why are you so thrilled?" Sunoo questioned as they sprinted to the second floor.
I smiled while watching Sunghoon and Sunoo's dynamic, but soon, my eyes landed on Heeseung. Something inside told me to speak with him and express what it lingered in my brain.
"You know. I never explored this house entirely. I was here only for a while before I moved to the Blackburry Forest," I revealed before standing beside Heeseung.
He lifted his sight and listened to my words—. "Why did you move?"
"Conah decided it was best. And I trusted him. I always did," I sighed before reminiscing what happened when he was alive—. "He found me when I was a child. I can't remember what happened to me, but according to Conah, I was drenched in blood while crying."
"Conah was older than you," Heeseung realized, to which I nodded in response.
"He couldn't age."
"Immortality. The rune," Heeseung looked at me, stunned—. "He knew you were a Phoenix Angel!"
I nodded and hummed—. "That rune is the secret our species swore to protect. Perhaps that's what Ryong Ethan wants; he chased the Newborn only to obtain it. Don't you think?" I thoughtfully said before looking at Heeseung.
"Perhaps it was. But if your suspicions are true, you must stay protected at all costs," Heeseung sternly realized.
I frowned—. "What do you have in mind?"
Heeseung turned his head, a decisive stare facing me, making my body freeze. Nevertheless, that was our entire conversation; he took off after that. I blinked a few times, stunned by his sudden motion. Instantly, I followed him, perceiving his silent treatment lead somewhere. Heeseung knew what to do; he had a scheme on his mind but didn't dare to share it with me alone.
"Guys, let's gather up!" I heard Heeseung's command before he turned around and faced me—. "Where can we talk?"
"The library is over there. It has a digital map, similar to the one at the institute's hideout," I said before pointing at the door at the end of the hallway.
