The Thirty-Seventh Chapter

Leonardo had vowed to know if Nyra’s new pet was his Rosette or not. But he didn’t manage to know the answer for years, decades, or perhaps centuries—he didn’t know as he lost track of time. Leonardo tried to search for his Rosette, letting the oceans of time and seas of sorrow just pass by. If only he could pour all his power so that he may locate his Rosette in a snap of a finger, he shall do it.

But his sister, the Heathen Queen Rhella, forbade him and wouldn’t teach him that secret magic.

So, he manually and physically looked for his Rosette everytime the sun rose and the moon awoke.

“Let’s have our supper at Ezra’s Diner, Leo!” The voice of his mortal friend who was driving the cab was the one who drifted him back to the present time.

He looked at the mirror of the driver’s seat and gave his friend a tight nod. His friend smiled back.

After a couple of minutes or hours—Leonardo doesn’t know—his friend had muttered that they'd arrived.
