BETWEEN US

A few moments later…

I searched for Rain until I found him training the royal soldiers.

"Who else wants to try it?"

He asked the soldiers who else would try to practice swordsmanship with him. These soldiers were still new. There were only about thirty people.

I then ventured closer while looking for an excuse to speak.

"I!" I answered behind him.

All the soldiers turned to me. Rain turned his body and saw me walking closer.

"I will try to fight you!"

My words naturally made these new soldiers look at each other. Rain was no exception, who seemed surprised by my request.

"Ara."

His voice suddenly sounded hoarse, like holding on to sadness. He repeatedly swallowed his saliva. A sad look came out of his sharp eyes.

"Fight me, Prince Rain!" I told him.

"I'm not going up against a woman," he replied.

I then turned around. Get into the fighting circle he created. Now I'm standing in front of him.
