“Cassius, I’m al…… I’m alright.”

The side ended with a slight rub.

The blood still seemed to flow from the eyes, but the burning pain was gradually subsiding.

Just, I felt like I was losing all my strength all over.

“Yerine, what do I do, because of me…!”

Erica’s face had already been messed up with tears.

Her hands were pushed like aspen. Her hands trembled as she did not run away from the sight of the pitiful monster.

“Erica, it’s all right, it’s just a smudge.”

I smiled and held her trembling hand.

“Spade, first, stop the bleeding with this.”

Eugene’s face looked calm compared to the other two, but his voice was also shaking.

He took a handkerchief out of his arms and tore the sleeve of his shirt.

“Wait, there’s a better way.”

Eugene paused at Cassius’ cry.

“A better way?”

Cassius did not bother to answer his question.

I knew what he was going to do.

A familiar golden mass of light flowed from the fingertips of Cassius.

Eugene and Erica’s eyes widened when they saw the scene for the first time.

‘Will this be okay for …..…?’

I knew instinctively.

I’m not going to die with this kind of wound.

But that doesn’t mean the wound didn’t hurt.

And the pain was painful, but I suddenly feel sleepy, so it was hard to move a finger.

‘But Cassius was doing this right after he transformed, so he must have used up a lot of mana.’

But when the idea reached that point, Cassius had already invoked magic.

A mass of light that resembled the colour of Cassius’s eyes gathered around the scar on my eyes.

I could feel the warmth.

It was not a painful heat that burned like a flame, but a warm warmth that feels like I was held in someone’s arms.

I closed my eyes quietly, feeling the warmth.

Soon that warmth was coming into my body.

“What is it, why…….”

I opened my eyes, painfully, to the confused voice of Cassius.

Light masses were still floating around the wound.

“Why doesn’t the healing magic work……?”

Eventually, the chunks of light-headed to Cassius’ fingertips, and soon disappeared.

“No, this is ridiculous. Again~”

A warm chunk of light flowed out of his hand again.

But the results were the same.

The light that hovered around the wound continued to refuse to enter my body.

His fingertips, visible through the slightly open eyes, were shaking.

“I don’t know exactly what it is, but hemostasis comes first.”

Eugene exclaimed in a shrill voice.

“We shouldn’t be outside now. .We need to get her inside quickly so the wound doesn’t get infected.”

Eugene came up and said, holding Cassius’s arm.

“I know how you feel, but let me stop the bleeding first.”

I couldn’t see Eugene’s face, but I could tell.

He must also have a troubled look on his face.

Then something fell over my cheek.

“Yerine…”

When I opened my eyes, I met his wet golden eyes.

“Cassius.”

I raised his arms and wiped away his tears with my fingertips.

It was the same as when I was young.

Just a little longer hair, a little sharper jawline, a little changed in the eyes.

“Don’t cry. ….”

But Cassius cried more and more.

I shed tears in my eyes.

“It’s okay, I’m all right.”

The left hand that was sweeping his cheek fell on the ground.

My eyes gradually closed.

‘Oh, I’m supposed to tell him I’m really okay.’

I have to tell Erica and Eugene not to worry.

But I was too sleepy.

It’s been a long time since I forgot the pain in my side.

I just wanted to sleep tight.

There was a golden light in the flashing field of vision.

It was the last light seen just before the consciousness sank into the abyss.

‘Pretty.’

I had such a foolish idea.

I don’t remember the next thing at all.

***

In a dark room with curtains hanging.

A girl with pink hair sat there with hollow eyes.

Erica, with her legs together, folded her fingers and crouched, was staring blankly forward.

Eugene was looking at her, leaning against the window.

Unable to see, he sighed and spoke to her.

“Blothea.”

Erica flinched at the remark but did not turn her head or answer.

Eugene sighed one more time as if for her to listen to it openly, approached her.

“Get a hold of yourself. Spade’s passed the hump for now.”

Eugene floated her with air magic and moved her into the house shortly after Yerine fainted.

Erica, Cassius, and the employees of the castle stopped the bleeding and prepared the drugs, and contacted the attending physician.

Eugene had the ointment she had just received from Rayl and applied the ointment to Yerine’s wound as the first aid.

Then came the doctor, who was not far away, and the treatment was quickly completed.

“There’s a little scar left. But it won’t affect her life.”

He asked if there was anything wrong with her eyes, but the doctor said there was no trauma to Yerine’s eyes.

‘Fortunately, indeed.’

Eugene, who saw blood dripping from Yerine’s eyes, was worried that she might never be able to use her left eye again.

For some reason, fortunately, it didn’t seem to be happening.

“I’m not a man with no conscience who could feel happy enough to just because she passed over the hump.”

A hoarse voice came from the deep, pink back of the head.

Perhaps because she cried so much, he could still feel her crying when he heard her voice.

“But the scar will remain.”

Erica, who drew her knees together, said in a weak voice.

“Because of me, Yerine has a scar that will never be erased.”

She then bowed her head down and buried it in her lap.

“You’re not the only one who feels that way.”

A small voice came from behind the crouching back.

“I blame myself the most. Yerine got hurt trying to protect me.”

“You’ve done as much as you can. It was just an accident.”

Erica turned her head at Eugene’s rebuttal. Like she doesn’t want the answer.

“I know. From the first time you saw the monster, you tried to draw an all-round defence magic circle in your head.”

Eugene turned his back and talked.

An empty chair in the parlour-room caught his eye. As recently as yesterday, Yerine was sitting in that chair, smiling brightly.

His heart ached.

“Because of the monster approaching in the middle, you must have thought of the magic circle from the beginning every time you use the attack magic.

“…….”

“And yet you succeeded.”

Speaking like that, Eugene looked back at Erica again.

“Your magic was flawless. It’s just bad luck.”

“It’s flawless you say?”

A sharp voice was heard. While crouching on the chair, Erica stormed out and strode toward Eugene.

Her eyes were burning like flames.

“Don’t make me laugh.”

Eugene squinted his eyes and looked down at her.

Then he bowed his head still.

“Blothea”

“It doesn’t make sense.”

In the voice of desperate anger, Eugene raised his head again.

“What’s the use of defensive magic that can’t even protect my most precious friend?”

She was shedding tears again.

She was turning an arrow of anger at herself.

“I longed for Yerine. I wanted to be the person that fits Yerine.”

She let out a cry as if she were out of breath.

“I always get help, so I thought I wanted to help her and protect her this time.”

Eugene felt a sharp awning piercing his heart.

Because he was thinking the same thing as Erica.

“But what is this? I only hurt her, let alone help her……!”

“Blothea, calm down.”

Erica glared at Eugene and retorted at the remark.

“Can you calm down in this situation? That’s how she got hurt. Can you do that?”

Eugene clenched his fists in both hands.

‘Worried?’

How could he didn’t?

‘Good job, Eugene. You did a great job.’

Yerine’s smiling face passed in front of Eugene.

“……can you do that?”

He had similar thoughts with Erica.

He had thought she wanted a shoulder to lean on.

She saved himself without hesitation in the last raid, and he had this feeling from some time ago.

Secret and dim.

An emotion that he couldn’t even tell her.

“For me, she’s the one who’s the most…”

But Eugene couldn’t finish his words.

Something grew deep in his throat.

It was Eugene, who had never shown tears in front of others since he was 10 years old. But he thought he wanted to shed tears today.

‘No way.’

A housekeeper should not be swept away by emotion. The successor himself had to.

He mused his lips and covered his face with his hands.

‘I’m sorry. I should’ve found it and stopped it. I should have saved you this time. If I were stronger. If I’ve trained more. If I’ve come up with a contingency plan for the monster. You wouldn’t have been hurt.’

“…… I’m sorry, I’ll go.”

Eventually, Eugene couldn’t stand it and left the room.

“Please pretend you didn’t hear what I just said.”

So he pushed his way into the hall, trying to contain the pouring emotions.

***

Why is it always you who gets hurt?

I’m older, I’m better at magic than before.

Now that I know how to use healing magic, I thought I could keep you from getting hurt.

“Yerine…”

I called her name, but the answer didn’t come back.

I looked down at her breathing out regularly.

She was lovely, so lovely.

I had no power to protect such a lovely girl.

“I’m sorry to make you hurt again.”

I hope she didn’t get hurt.

But I failed again today.

I tried to activate the healing magic again.

The beam of light stretching from the fingertips floated towards Yerine.

But the light that bounced weakly from her body soon returned to my hand.

It was hopeless.

I wanted to have the power to protect her.

I prayed to God so desperately.

“Please, Yerine……….”

At that moment the bell rang to announce eleven o’clock at night.

It was just then.

The sight of an eye resembling an amethyst shining clear under the eyelid.

“…… Cassius?”

Tossing and getting out of bed, Yerine murmured.

Next to her amethysts eyes, her eyes that looked just like ruby also glowed.

I thought I might never see the light again.

“Cassius?”

I hugged her without a word.

It wasn’t a dream.

The warmth in my arms, and her body odour, were telling it.

“I’m sorry, Yerine…….”

Again and again, tapping on my back, which I could only utter, Yerine murmured in a calm voice.

“No.”

It was a constant voice.

“It’s all right, Cassius.”
