Perhaps he is faion, Lukrov continues to drive his horse straight without hesitation at allAfter passing through the trees standing high in the sky like a gale, going down the hill and running for a short while, the forest are gradually clearing outBut at the sains to cover the area and the horse began to slon…

Lukrov doesn’t want to overwork his horse, so they slowly stoppedforward

Chizuru raises her face when the horse stops

「Are you getting off……here?」

I heard it, but it was only the slightest nod to the extent that I ht not knohether he had already answeredEven before then, he had been silent the whole time, and he didn’t even take off his helmetHowever, the arentle that there was a little uneasiness

With his hand, Lukrov helped Chizuru got off from the horse with a vivida heavy ar her hands with a nostalgic sensation and held her waist in a warhtly lowered onto the ground and Chizuru staggered slightly from the difference while on a horse

Lukrov’s hand supports Chizuru firmly

「Oh, thank you」

Even if she say thank you, Lukrov only replied with a slight nod

Lukrov, who left Chizuru standing up, tied the reins of the horse to the trunk of the tree and begin to level the ground with his feetIt was not the first ti

Less than 15 minutes later, Lukrov collected dead trees and leaves on the leveled ground, and ignited a fire with his portable flint

She have so s to tell him, but it may not co near the fire for awhile without saying anything

Lukrov sat down using a nearby stone as a chair, while Chizuru sits on the ground in a seiza position(!)Even though there was a little wind, thanks to the gradually growing fire there was no cold, but the silence continues to send chills up to the spine

(T/N: Seiza – kneeling with the tops of the feet flat on the floor, and sitting on the solesCan refer here if you want to see the picture)

She thought that he htHowever, the sturdy body, broad shoulder and his wide back that stretched fired…

And his strong gaze that were only looking at Chizuru

「Lukrov……You know, let me explain」

As it became unbearable, Chizuru opened her randinal worldBut it’s only been a little over a year over there……」

For some reason, her voice trembled

As expected, Lukrov is a ht, and he has an overwhel presence even if he is silentIn that sense, he was a very brave ize

「I’ve never forgotten youA little while ago, when I heard a voice calling out to this world… I want to go right awayAnd, because of that… now, I’ve returned…」

Lukrov was still silent

He just stared at Chizuru under his helet a small nodChizuru had to bite her lips to stop the tears fro

「Why…… Why don’t you take off your helh

Then, he slowly extended his hands to hold the back of his head, and then gently took off his helmetFirst, she can see his dark black hair and Lukrov’s handsoht of fire

Chizuru was s while spontaneously moved to tears

It is Lukrov

He was a lot rim than the Lukrov she remembers, but there is no doubt about it

Black eyes that are likely to be sed,willed lipsAll of themHowever the little wrinkles that wasn’t there before are beginning to carve thinly near his eyes and mouthAnd, there was a trace of a cut across his forehead and teht eyebrow

However, his expression was as cold as ice

Or, he seeryThe cold, the heat and the temperature that was supposed to conflict with each other turned into an arrow and pierced Chizuru painfully

「Lukrov…… I……」

「Why now?」

A low, sharp voice interrupted ChizuruIf she hadn’t heard it wrong, Lukrov’s voice was slightly tre as Chizuru did

「 Huh?」

「Why are you co back now? Why now, to abandon so back?」

Chizuru couldn’t answer

『Abandoned』,『More than 14 years』,and……『Now』

Chizuru’s heart was frozen, and her body didn’t move as if she had lost the reason to breathe
