“Is that right?” (Sasha)
Shetold she could surpass ht” I asserted clearly
“…You……to think Arnos would say that……” (Sasha)
“Can’t you believe it?” (Arnos)
Sasha nodsShe’s pretty cute with her defiant attitude
“Having you talk like that when I haven’t done anything is a bit……” (Sasha)
“I’m not on about the top layerI looked deep into your abyssDeep, deep within you is a sleeping but ht” (Arnos)
Sasha is at a loss for words
Her <Deing and the surroundings start to shake
“Look into my eyes” (Arnos)
“Eh…?”
“Don’t look away”
“…Yes…”
“More”
“Even if you say more……”
“Come closer”
Sasha approaches ht up to me I suppress her eyes with mine
FumuEven this close I can’t cohtHer eyes are hiding a tremendous power
“Do you understand?” (Arnos)
Sasha nods in eone on a date with Misha already though?” (Sasha)
A date? That tiether?
“What about it?” (Arnos)
“………Well, Arnos with Misha……” Sasha seeet her words out“…and…well……didn’t you want Misha’s demon eyes……?”
I seeSasha must have seen Misha’s talent as well
“It’s true that Misha has good demon eyes and they are in no way inferior to yours”
Sasha looks up at me with upturned eyes
“…Arnos……who’s are better……?”
“Impossible to choose”
Who’s better? A question people will always be interested in especially if they are close to that person, however, their demon eyes have very different qualitiesThey can’t be compared
“……Don’t you know?” (Sasha)
Fu?
“I want both of you”
“Eeeeeeeeh……!? Both of us?”
Sasha raises her voice in surprise
“Are you unhappy with both of you?
“……Isn’t it a bit strange……?”
I laughed unintentionally
“Why are you laughing? What’s wrong anting to be nue……?”
“Not at allIt’s good SashaYou should aim for the topWhen you compete with others you shi+ne even more”
“…I see……”
I’m not sure if her murmur was relief or disappointment
“You knohat?” (Sasha)
Sasha speaks like she’s given up
“……I’ her words I look at Sasha with a serious expression
“If you want, I’ll give you these demon eyes”
Fuht will never return to the person who’s had theh it’s admirable to show such loyalty
“I won’t take them but I want you to make a pro look in her eyes
“Soht find myself in a situation that is out of ht not be able to protect those I want to protect” (Arnos)
“I don’t think that will ever happen……” (Sasha)
“Probably not but there’s no absolutesAnyway, in that instance, I’ll depend on you to protect me SashaYour eyes have that power”
“If that happens and I keep my promise will you listen to what I have to say?”
“You can say anything to me”
Sasha looks happy and nods bashfully
“You promise?” (Sasha)
“Do you want to use <Zekt>?” (Arnos)
Sasha shakes her head
“I don’t need itA promise is better than a contract” (Sasha)
“I see”
Her <de she seeoing?” (Sasha)
“To find out what type of traditions have been handed down about the heroes” (Arnos)
“Well thenDon’t you think you’ll get that information from the hero academy?” (Sasha)
Sasha points down one of the paths up ahead
“Let’s go”
Ai for the hero academy Arclaniska that can be seen in the distance we start walking
