He was just... a little uneasy.
When Nenasha regains her strength, will there be changes in her?
Will she beco soone he doesn't recognize?
He didn't know when he started becoming so sentintal.
["I won't change."]
"Huh!!?"
Just like responding to the worries of a mortal heart, the deity spoke gently.
["I promise you, no matter what happens, I will not change; I will always be the you are familiar with."]
The deity promised the mortal that she would never change.
Upon hearing this sincere promise, the mortal remained silent.
"..."
The more Nenasha made such assurances, the more uneasy Herbert felt.
He had never detested his own intuition so much before.
It always felt like Nenasha was raising so forbidden flags—like getting married after the war, marrying you when I co back, stopping after making money...
Is this predetermined destiny?
["I won't change, so you don't need to worry anymore..."]
"Tsk."
Herbert, rarely, let out a curse, muttering a couple of words under his breath.
To hell with destiny.
"Nenasha!"
["Hmm!?"]
Nenasha was taken aback, not knowing why Herbert suddenly beca so agitated.
Herbert didn't explain but simply stated:
"You won't leave , and I won't leave you."
He wasn't wishing; he was declaring as if stating a fact: "We will never be apart!"
Nenasha was a bit bewildered.
["Hmm? What happened to you..."]
She didn't understand why Herbert suddenly reacted so strongly.
Yet Herbert, as if feeling that such a promise was still not enough, added another sentence: "Even death cannot part us!"
Death flag, right?
Making uneasy, right?
I'll say it too!
I want to see what this damn destiny will do!
["...Haha."]
Nenasha didn't know exactly what Herbert was contending with, but she could feel his intention—he was defiant, very defiant.
No longer sentintal, but returning to the arrogant deanor she knew.
For such a change, she was actually very happy.
["I'm glad you can say such things, but... before saying that, perhaps you should get a bit stronger~"]
She teased with a smile: ["Legendary is indeed not weak, but it's still not strong enough~"]
If you want to protect , perhaps you should go back and train more!
Maybe one day you really will achieve your goal, becoming stronger than , able to protect .
I believe you can do it.
But that takes ti.
So, until that day cos, let protect you first.
"Hey! You vile demon, don't be arrogant! When I step into Epic, I'll surely cut you down!"
Herbert didn't accept Nenasha's words, mumbling continuously.
Just after barely advancing to Legendary, he was already dreaming of what happens after reaching Epic.
["Epic? Honestly, there's a difference between Epics too, so Epics are just not good enough~"]
.
.
"No, I'm supposed to be Epic too."
Lukalia twitched her mouth, guiltily glanced at the peacefully sleeping Valentina beside her, and compared the strength of both sides carefully.
In raw strength, no match.
In soft power, no match either.
No match at all, really no match.
Completely lost!
The Mirror Demon, a bit unwilling, muttered lowly: "How can there be such a big difference?"
"And, Herbert, when on earth are you coming back!!?"
"Hurry up and take her away!"
