Chapter 139
There are moments when the fear of losing takes over.
Iola had always praised Viretta as the best fiancée for daring to challenge the impossible, and there was no falsehood in his feelings. But once a relationship has matured, there comes a time when the fear of loss creeps in.
Iola still thought of Viretta as amazing, the one who had led him this far.
She followed the usual procedures of a hunter, yet she sometimes disregarded them, extorted money, and never failed to make things interesting when observed.
It was hard not to love a woman who picked up explosives to take revenge on a dragon when they should have been fleeing.
‘...But.’
Once you fall deeply in love, you can no longer leave her behind.
"...I have something urgent to say regarding that."
Iola, now faced with the fear of loss that Viretta and Ranken had experienced, felt the weight of the situation.
It was a realization that came late. He knew that. But only after everything had unfolded, did he come face to face with his inner fear.
The delay in awareness stemmed from the pride he hadn’t fully recognized himself.
Even though he thought the danger of death was high, there was a part of him that believed he could protect only Viretta.
He had protected his comrades while retreating from unfavorable battlefields countless times.@@novelbin@@
