116 – Too Long

Gradually, the yellow light disappeared, and I found Ayre again. She was already using her usual form and smiling at me, shedding tears at the same time.

I looked around, making sure I wasn't in the past anymore. The armors and weapons displayed on the walls were already different. Now, they had patterns emitting dim lights of various colors.

Yes, I'm back, and my emotions are running high.

Ayre hugged me. Her tears rolled down my chest as I kissed her head, hugging her trembling body back.

"Thank you for waiting for me all this time," I whispered into her ear. "Must be hard, huh?"

She let go of her hug, then looked at my face. Her smile this time was the most genuine I've ever seen.

"Welcome back." After saying that, she kissed my lips. I reply as passionately as possible because she hasn't felt this way for too long.

"Ugh….." Emily grunted. Ayre and I let go of our embrace and turned our heads to the supreme undead.
