CHAPTER 209: FIGHTING CLASS (2)

After our discussion with Frank and Sophia, we leave the smithy and head to Frank's house. I would like to greet Claire's before going to the academy.

"Are you okay? You haven't said much since we left."

"I am okay, Lanuvel. But what about you? Aren't you tired? You should go back to the academy."

"Why? You don't like it when I am with you?"

"Sigh... you really are belligerent."

"S-sorry. That girl put me on edge earlier."

"She was just teasing you. And I told you already, I am not that kind of man."

"I know, it's just…" Lanuvel's hands are trembling a bit. What is she afraid of?

"It's just?"

"I…I am afraid. I am afraid that all this will just be a dream. And I will wake up all alone again, abandoned and discarded."

The same happened to me, so trust me, I know how it feels.

"Even if it turns out it was a dream, you must always push forward. And eventually, it will turn into a reality."
