“I only heard about them, but this is my first time seeing it. Indeed, a magical reaction is there.”
Even through my embarrassment, seeing Ahin smile made me feel good.
Somehow, it seemed like he had no other intention, so I decided to understand his actions instead. Of course, the biggest reason was that I didn’t dare to think about it.
However, at this point, I wondered if the color of my eyes really changed. Did it really change?
“Ugh… I want to see it too.”
“Should I bring in a mirror?”
As Ahin moved to bring a mirror, I was turning nervous. He isn’t going to kiss me again, right?
However, this time, Ahin simply held my hand. Seeing that, I felt something strange and unknown. What was this feeling?
“Did it change?”
“I think it will change a lot more if I do this, but it seems like your eyes are rejecting me.”
My red eyes reflecting in the mirror seemed different. Maybe orange shade. However, when Ahin began to release some kind of energy, it rapidly changed into purple.
The color of my eyes changed. I wasn’t wearing any lenses, but my eyes still changed. I was shocked by it.
Ahin’s vital energy made my body feel relaxed, but at the same time, unknown fatigue accumulated. In the end, I didn’t hold on and let go of Ahin’s hand.
“Are you leaving tomorrow?”
When I released Ahin’s hand, my eyes turned back to crimson. I heard that my mom’s eyes were green. I ended up wanting green eyes.
“Yes, I will.”
“Then, when can I see you again?”
“Hmm, won’t we meet someday?”
Although I tried to smile, Ahin’s expression remained glum. That was my first time seeing Ahin like that, as if he thought I was breaking away from him.
Even if I didn’t want to move so quickly, would Ahin really move for me? In the first place, this friendship only rekindled because of my travels, so Bureti was unreasonable.
Any other way?
While I was thinking about other ways, Ahin said something.
“Don’t go.”
“What?”
“Nothing.”
Ahin immediately smiled, as if trying to hide his intentions, so I was left stunned.
“… I need to go.”
As if I was trying to understand him, my heart weakened, a restless feeling taking over me.
“Can you come to Bureti?”
“The successor cannot leave the empire.”
“Is it such a huge deal to go out? Will God’s Wall disappear?”
“No. It is just for security.”
Huh? Really?
I was shocked by the answer. Until now, I thought that the wall would disappear if Ahin went away, but that didn’t seem like the case. It was just a simple problem for a royal family member to move around.
Hold on. Then…
I clapped with excitement.
“Then run away with me!”
“Sorry?”
Somehow, seeing Ahin, who was bound by duty, I wanted to take him out.
Even if it meant something ridiculous like that.
“Would you like to come? No, let’s go together.”
I did things like this.
Ahin was extremely confused with my offer; he was silent for a while. As he hesitated, I held his hand and pulled him close.
“It’s not a big deal. Come with me.”
Right, this wasn’t something I would be able to do again in my life.
“Runaway with me, Ahin!”
