Chapter 45 ... (2/2)

”Yes!!! Very powerful!!” Shina nodded.

Shina and Yuki turned to Theo and noticed that... ”Theo, are you crying?” They asked in confusion.

”Ahhh, no, no... dust got in my eyes... yes, that was it!” Theo said.

Yuki went to Theo's side and said worriedly, ”Are you really well Theo? Did you get hurt somewhere?”

Seeing Yuki's worried gaze, Theo felt a little guilty but also felt warm in his heart.

Shina also got close to Theo and began tapping and patting Theo's body, worried that he might actually have been hurt but didn't know what to say.

”Shina, you...”

”Stay still! I want to see if you're hurt or not!” Shina said and continued to check.

After she saw that he had not been hurt, she sighed with relief and said. ”Good! It does not look like he hurt himself!”

”Good!” Exclaimed Yuki.

Theo was feeling increasingly guilty about this... but how could he say that he had cried because the technique he used before it was like the one from an anime that he was a strong fan of? No, no, these were not tears… it was sweat.

”Thank you for caring! I'm fine!” Theo said.

”...”

Seeing that he did not want to say why he had cried... they decided not to ask anymore.

After that, they went to the 'Flower' they were trying to protect.

As they approached, they noticed a strong Mana emanating from it. This 'Flower' had pure white petals of mana, but it had not yet bloomed.

[Moon Lotus] - [Contains a large amount of Moon Mana]

”This is...” Theo looked at Shina and asked, ”Shina, is this the flower you said?”

”I don't know, because I haven't seen one in person, I just heard about them... sorry,” Shina said apologetically.

”Haha. Don't worry!” Theo smiled and said, ”Anyways... it looks like it's something really valuable.”

”Yes, I think so.” Yuki gave her opinion.

”Fumu.” Shina nodded cheerfully.

”Ok, I think it was very close to blooming... I think it's a good idea to stay here and wait for it to bloom,” said Theo.

”Yes!” Shina and Yuki agreed.
