27 Ch. 27 Wolf Shadow (2/2)

”Uhm, did something happen?” Richard asked, lightly tapping Niken's back. He felt his sister shook her head slowly in front of his chest as an answer.

”I only miss you. I don't know why I suddenly want to meet you. Maybe..” Niken raised, ”Did something happen this afternoon?”

Once again, Richard was stunned. Did his sister remember the afternoon events? Impossible. If so, Niken won't even ask.

”Nothing. What happened?”

”Don't lie. Then why do I feel your energy' flowing is very strange. Are you forcing yourself? I know that you want to be strong, but at least take care of yourself not to fall ill or faint. Luckily today, you didn't faint. Otherwise, I will cry all day at this school.”

”How do you know...” his words stopped as he remembered the simple answer.

Of course. Niken must have gotten slightly stronger by getting a quarter of the knight's energy. Now she could sense the changing of someone' flowing energy.

”I don't know either. Usually, I can't feel the flowing energy of other people, but I could feel it in the next second. Even now, I know the difference in energy flow for each level. And even more strangely, I could move a wave of water in one experiment today. Sir Won praised my drastic progress.” exclaimed her with a pleasant voice.

”That's great!” Richard took his sister's hand, and they both walked back to their home.

Richard was relieved to hear the story of his sister, who was endlessly talking. At least he should thank Kazuto. Now the younger sister could become more energetic and no longer sheepish.

He hoped, when Niken walked alone facing danger, Niken could take care of herself when he could not be with her.

But surely he didn't need to worry about it anymore. Niken will never be alone again. At least Kazuto wouldn't leave Niken unprotected.
