Chapter 84

"So you should forgive them as well now."

Myohan was imitating what had comforted him the most. He spoke softly with warmth.

"The time you had promised to fulfill his wish..."

He had promised to make the dragon into a human if he became his friend for a hundred years. Myohan hadn't seen every day of the god's life, but the god had seen his everyday. Keeping promises was the only thing they had in common.

"It has passed already."

In Myohan's arms, O Shin breathed faintly and whispered.

"Okay."

His shoulder felt wet. The sky always cried instead of Shihuang, but there was no one to cry for the god. Myohan embraced him even tighter. His small voice tickled his ear.

"I suppose…"

He couldn't insist on being selfish and childish when his old friend was becoming a better man. He smiled hollowly and Myohan hugged him again.
