Chapter 213 Lucy Panics

• Lucy’s footsteps echoed against the stone staircase as she hurried up the narrow, winding steps leading to the castle's rooftop. The chill of the night air seeped through the thick walls, amplifying the tension in her chest. Her heart raced as she neared the top, a mixture of fear and urgency propelling her forward. When she finally reached the rooftop, the sight of Isaac standing alone against the backdrop of a darkening sky made her breath catch.
• Isaac stood near the edge, his silhouette outlined by the soft glow of the setting sun. The wind tousled his hair as he stared out over the horizon, his expression unreadable. Lucy approached cautiously, her mind racing with the news she had just heard.
• “What are you doing up here?” she called out, her voice trembling despite her effort to remain composed.
