End of Journey

His right hand was trying to reach the apple hanging from the branch, while the other hand was holding on to the tree trunk tightly. Ashnard tried his best to take the fruit without the help of his power because he wanted to prove that even without using power, he can do it. However, one hand was not enough, Ashnard's grip slipped, and he fell to the ground.

Nous approached him in a panic. "Ashnard!"

Ashnard got up and handed to him an apple while smiling contentedly without showing any pain.

"I got it!" he exclaimed happily. His smile covered all the pain. Blooming like sunflowers shining in the sun's shadow.

Just showing that smile, made Nous sure that he didn't have to worry about Ashnard all the time.
