Back to Leo and Ophis, who were now walking down the long, quiet corridor leading back toward the hospital lobby. The hallway echoed with the soft squeak of their shoes against the polished floor, and distant murmurs and metallic clangs drifted from nearby patient rooms.
"I still can't believe you actually used that freaking rare stone on a complete nobody! Do you even understand what you just did?" Ophis suddenly exploded, her voice filled with frustration and disbelief.
She stormed a few steps ahead of him, spinning around to face Leo with her arms flailing slightly. Her brows were scrunched tight, her tiny hands clenched. The disbelief in her voice was impossible to miss.
"That was a one-time thing, Leo! You could've saved yourself if something ever went wrong. And you used it on a old woman who die at any day and... you don't even know?"
Leo simply shrugged, his hands resting in his pockets like none of this mattered.
