Chapter 2 Part4 (2/2)
”It's too great of an honor!”
Once Legion divides the bouquet in half and presents it to him, the fact that he could even hold thatinto Vio
Upon closer inspection, there are sonize
”Are these flowers from the mountains?”
”Yep! The time I've heard about your illness, Lord Violant Now that the sunlight isn't as strong, how about it? Why don't you try taking a stroll in the garden? If you don't o?”
After rubbing his left palion extends it towards Vio
Taking in the outstretched hand, his resolve hardens
Apparently, Legion is under the impression that his body is weak Well, Vio did tell him he seldom left the mansion
”No, actually I…”
”Shall we bring a parasol?”
”You're ht”
He sucks in a deep breath
It's a good opportunity for exercising outside Vio tiht squeeze
It's been a while since he last stepped foot on the soil, and as soon as Vio does, a h his mind:
”Lord Violant, the snow has piled up so beautifully Would you like to go out? I shall accompany you”
(That's right On that winter day, Erik also extended his hand to me)
All of a sudden, he's back to the present, flying through the air with Legion That saion with a surprised expression The colorful flowers in his grasp dance in ht
Then Vio falls to his knees The flowers scatter over the ground
And he gasps for air He could hear his heart thrashi+ng against his chest, could feel the unpleasant sweat hanging from his back
”Lord Violant?!” That Legion is startled is clear, his voice tre as he speaks
To show that he's alright, Violant raises his right hand Despite this, he still struggles to breathe, wobbling in place
”Young master!”
The moment the voice sounds, Vio's body is pulled back into the entrance hall by Jil He pats his ht rhythm to breathe
”Please inhale Now, exhale… It is alright It's okay”
So with the rhythm of Jil's words With his first concern dealt with, the old butler turns to Legion, eyes narrowed
”Mr Legion, what is theof this?”
”…Hah It's okay Jil,” says Vio, voice soft ”It was my fault”
“Eh?”
“It wasahead of myself This is worst”
He covers his face loosely with his hands His eyes burn, tears flowing down his cheeks ”How can I escape froet but I can't”
”It is alright, young eous just then, absolutely wonderful So please, do not think of it anymore”
With Jil's gentle voice and light pats on his back, Vio's shaking finally subsides
(Indeed, that was all in the past It's alright now)
Once convinced of this, darkness envelopes his sight
”Young master?!”
”Lord Violant?!”
Jil and Legion's panicked voices overlap, heard from far away
Ending notes:
