Leon and Eli lowered their heads in dejection as the High Priest gently knocked some sense of reality for them.
"I have long heard the works that you've been doing for the past few months, and I commend you for that. However, with young Eli training for her priestly powers, it give you a mile ahead of the enemies." The High Priest continued to explain to them.

Eli clenched her fist, mulling over the decision to give up the chance to watch Little Han grow for a better chance to protect him in the future.
"Do not worry, I'll be supporting you." Leon held Eli's tense hands and comforted her.
His mind had already decided to support Eli with her decision. What's the use of him staying by her side when he would just let her carry the burden of being a parent for Little Han?
