Chapter 546 - Lieutenant Teo Part 4 (2/2)
”He is.” Lyn laughs. ”Are you going to lecture me?”
Teo shook his head, ”I cannot.” Because she firmly decided despite being lost for a long time. ”But, if you wish for someone to lecture you, then I have plenty of things I want to say. For instance, please don't go around walking late at night and your leg is still injured, so you shouldn't use such aggressive movements on it.”
”Ahh, you don't hold back.”
”But, I do have to ask you. Why so suddenly? Although I am aware that you have been agonizing about this matter for a long time now.”
At that comment, the girl lifted the flower Suoh had given her and held it closer to her chest. ”That's true, and this is sudden. But I have already resolved myself. ” His eyes went wide at those words could it be she ---?
”I have to welcome Kazuya back with a smile, and what better than to have already made a choice. I don't want him to witness my agony and pain. For a while now, I've wanted to walk down this path. Suoh and I are strangely similar after all.”
Despite these words, he saw her gradually lose her balance.
Teo catches her arm and prevents her from falling. ”Ah, thank you.”
”You are too reckless. .” He murmurs. She is reckless, and yet just now, that was beautiful.
A person does not have to wear white to look like an angel. Just now, it seemed like genuine Angel wings were surrounding the Princess.
”Queen. We will take our leave, that was an interesting display you showed us. Come Tsukasa, Utoboshi.” With those words said, the trio disappeared, leaving him alone with the Princess.
”Ah-ah, he left one of his rings behind. He should stop acting all flashy.” Lyn said, bending down to pick up the silver metal on the ground.
Just now, he wondered if he imagined it. But it felt as though a powerful wind surrounded. A powerful wind and gorgeous light were acting as a barrier of some sort. How strange it's not unusual to see barriers due to the nature of magic in the Kingdom, and yet something felt different.
”Can you walk?” Teo asked.
Lyn nodded, and soon the two of them walked down the forest path.
Teo observed that her clothes had already gone back to normal. He figured that it was due to the contract-pact that happened there, yet he found it unusual. ”Why does the outfit change?”
Lyn blinks and burst into laughter. ”Out of all the things you could have asked me, I did not expect that.”
Teo averts his gaze, embarrassed and coughed. ”The attire is an important part of the battle.” Despite what it seemed like, the kind of clothes one wears on the battlefield will impact the fight's outcome.
”I know.” Lyn nodded and trailed off. ”Eh, well, how to put it? I guess it has something to do with me signing the pact with Suoh. This marks me as part of their organization, I guess?”
His eyes twitched, annoyed at her vague terminology. ”If you do not know, then there's no need for you to answer!”
One moment she seems confident, and the next, she behaves this way. He does not know how to handle her, and yet she is an interesting person.
