His Story (part 4)

"I don't mind leaving it completely if I have to. Aside from you, there's nothing over here for me, anyway."

I said to Nico, hoping that he'd understand. But his reactions showed that he doesn't get it even the slightest. Nico just laughed hearing that. He was very happy with that reply, and he didn't notice the secret message that I gave him. 

There was... a hidden meaning behind what I just said. A plea, hoping that he'd understand. Unfortunately, it was never meant to be.

 

I turned my gaze to Evelyn, and I found her looking rather saddened. She quickly turned away before Nico saw her face, and I'm glad she kept it a secret.

 

"In that case, we shall take our leave."

 

Nico said as he let go of both my hands, and he turned to Evelyn. The first queen is not even staring at us anymore, and she has already started flying upwards in silence.

 

"I'll end the war as soon as I can. Until then, please wait for me!"
