Chapter 156 - Invisible Thread (2/2)

It was already enough 'Happiness' for him. Let alone fall in love with her; that's not something that can happen.

”You're going to go after all, huh? Yer stubborn.”

He sighs at the cloaked figure, Kazuya thought he already stopped trailing him. But it seemed like that isn't the case here. ”Yeah. Going to stop me?”

Though he asked that Kazuya really didn't want to use up his energy on the fight, there's no way he can get away not fighting seriously against this guy. Even if he is strong, this person is also of that abnormally strong people. Even if it isn't so much as his. The cloaked figure shakes his head.

”Na, I'll let yer go.”

Kazuya raises his eyebrows at this, ”What's the catch?”

”None. She expects ya to come, anyway. Yer her partner after all.” With those words said the cloaked figure disappeared.

Partner, huh?

He didn't deserve such a title. Even now, he still thought that, he really was blessed with the idea that she thought of him that way. However, Kazuya still felt as though he wasn't worthy of it. That if one day, one day someone else came along, then he would pass on that title with no hesitation. At least that's how it's supposed to be. But for some reason, he couldn't do it. All this time, he had given up everything knowing that it was for the best. But with her, with her, he couldn't give up.

Pupillam had told him when he handed her the book to pass on to Lyn, 'Are you indirectly putting her at a loss with this?'.

Indeed, perhaps he had been. Perhaps Kazuya already knew his answer long beforehand. By sending her those books, he was indirectly telling her to remember him, to not forget. By doing so, he's well aware that he's been making her life even more complicated. Kazuya knew that full well after sending each book. But he couldn't stop it.
