Chapter 140
Viretta took a step toward the forest. Ranken, who had been a few steps behind, quietly approached and tapped her arm.
"Hold on, let me borrow your ear for a moment. There’s something I want you to remember."
When she bent her knee, Ranken whispered softly, making sure Iola couldn't hear.
"If you die, I’m finished too. There’s no chance I’ll live normally after that. I’m not expecting some wealthy benefactor to appear, someone with a heart big enough to heal a wounded boy like you for free."
"......"
At this timing, it wasn’t exactly words of encouragement.
Though it sounded like a threat, on second thought, it almost felt like a kind of morale boost.
A fresh surge of determination that she couldn’t die bubbled up within her.
"I’m not trying to burden you, just remember it. Don’t take it too heavily. Not too much... You heard me, right? Remember it?"@@novelbin@@
"Thanks for the victory chant, Ranken."
Viretta tossed her short hair back and strode forward.
Like passing a baton, Saffron brushed past Ranken and came closer.
"I’ve written a song."
What do you think?
