Hanette doesnt stop knocking on the door anxiously.
Would he have been so upset if she hadnt worn that necklace?
Although she didnt like what he was doing, she couldnt just leave him alone.
Hes stubborn
Hanette shook the doorknob back and forth, but it was locked from the inside, so she couldnt open it.
If she used magic, she could burn the door down, but she would get caught by her parents or the maid.
Bring the key to this room!
Y-yes? But
I said bring it!
Ohokay.
The maid hurriedly turned her back and ran down the hallway.
Hanette sighed and started banging on the door again.
Hey! Co out! Lets talk calmly, Okay? Its not like anything will happen if you keep doing this
The door made a creaking sound and shook slightly.
Hanette took a step back in surprise.
At the sa ti, the door opened and Sion appeared.
Why are you making so much noise? Cant you be quiet?
Why are you like this? If youre angry with , shouldnt you tell ?
Hanette looked at Sion with exhaustion.
Unlike yesterday, there was no energy in his eyes, and his shoulders were shaking slightly.
It seed as if he had been struggling with loneliness for a long ti.
What are you talking about? Im not angry with you.
Sigh Fine, If thats how youre going to act. Lets talk now.
Cant you wait just a little bit? I dont have much ti.
Ill wait for you, so co outside.
Are you waiting outside?
Ah, forget it! Open the door. Im coming in and talk.
As Hanette didnt back down, Sion reluctantly opened the way.
Hanette quickly looked around to see if there were any changes.
Sion weakly stepped forward and locked the door.
So why did you bring up the widow? What did you want to say?
Well, see this? I wore it as you asked to. Dont do anything like this in the future, okay?
Wore it? Oh, that?
Sion belatedly noticed the relic hanging from Hanettes neck and let out a small laugh.
Did she create this fuss since morning just to show him that?
Well, it suits you well. Its well worth my efforts.
I suppose so. You bought your favourite, so of course it will look good on , right?
My sister dont wear jewelry, do you? I thought it might be okay to wear sothing like a necklace.
Sion didnt get angry even though he was hungry and thirsty.
Until just a little while ago, he was getting dizzy trying to endure it all.
But seeing Hanette co in and treat him as usual, it gave him a little boost of energy.
Necklace is fine. Earrings, though not really my thing.
Whats wrong with earrings?
You have to pierce your ears its a little daunting, and Im not really into flashy things like that.
Hahaha! Are you scared of getting your ears pierced?
Hey, wheres the fun in getting your ears pierced?
Well that makes sense. But what do you an by daunting?
Its just too flashy. I dont really like that kind of thing.
Wow, youre surprisingly simple.
That kind of thing is just for nobles to show off. It doesnt really matter to .
With your face, nobles would probably flock to you.
Sion spoke of his true feelings as he sat down in the chair.
Despite being called the Crazy Young Lady by the nobles, they couldnt turn away from her because of her looks. Thats how beautiful she is..
Of course, Hanette deliberately kept her distance from the nobles, but a few had boldly approached her to get closer.
Every ti that happened, Hanette had sharply rebuked them, and they had no choice but to leave in fear.
So, you think its too much for you. But at least I have so face value.
Hehe You sound arrogant now that youve been praised a bit.
Well, since Im the Crazy Young Lady, its okay to be arrogant, right?
You said, I dont like being called a Crazy.
Well, it doesnt matter since Its I who said myself.
So, are you saying sothing like take good care of from now on?
Im not going to tell you to take good care of , so please dont do things like this. What am I supposed to do if youre locked up in room all day?
Hanette looked at him with a worried expression and felt a sense of relief.
Although they were forced into an engagent, she didnt want any problems to arise with Sion.
They were both in the sa position, and they had promised to cooperate with each other.
Didnt I tell you in advance?
But what if you actually do it?
Well I did it because I had to.
Youre really ugh okay, you won. Ill keep wearing this from now on, so dont do this again. Got it?
What are you talking about right now?
Youre being stubborn!
I didnt insist on anything.
Then why you lock yourself in the room?
Ah wait a minute.
Sion gestures with his hand as he notices a change in his body.
The cool energy that had been circulating throughout his body slowly began to disappear.
Gradually, a warm sensation filled the empty space and spread throughout his body.
Are you okay? Do you have any pains?
Im not in pain Im just a little hungry. And thirsty.
You havent eaten anything all day?
It just happened. Ah, is it a secret from the Duke Adelaira?
Hey, you crazy person! Why starve yourself?!
Hanette unconsciously curses and looks at him uncomfortably.
Why would he starve to the point of not eating anything because she didnt wear them right away?
If she had known this would happen, she would have put on the necklace as requested.
Okay Ill show it to only you. I gained sothing from starving myself.
Sion stretches out his right hand and pulls out sothing deep within his body.
Then, an unfamiliar energy flows out of his heart and reaches his right hand.
You cant be
Do you know what this is? I told you I would awaken.
So suddenly like this?
Well, sotis things happen suddenly in this world.
Sion emits magic imbued with a golden light and concentrates it in his right hand.
This was the magic and immunity to magic erosion that he had been seeking so desperately.
Of course, compared to El Tesoikve original magic, it was incomplete, but it was enough to handle the Exceed Rain.
Its aningless unless Ive already taken the Crimson Limpia Macina beforehand.
The Crimson Limpia Macina had the role of implenting El Tesoikves magic while providing immunity to ntal domination.
Therefore, Sion drank the Holy Water created by El Tesoikve and absorbed the magic completely into his body.
However, if he had already awakened his magic, the chances of failure would increase, and if El Tesoikve denied the subject, he could be seriously injured or even killed.
I was the perfect candidate for those conditions. Should I consider myself lucky?
Sion feels a sense of relief as he gathers the magic.
Although it took considerable ti and money, he was finally able to achieve his goal.
Now that he had that equipnt, all he had to do was get his hands on the Exceed Rain.
Okay, lets go eat. Can you walk?
If I cant, will you carry ?
Do you want to kick you with my foot? Youre holding it in quite a bit. Just co quietly.
Youre going to kick your fiance? Isnt that a bit extre?
Isnt it better than starving all day like a crazy person?
.
Sion slowly walks by without saying a word.
From Hanettes perspective, awakening magic may not have a significant impact.
Since Hanette had already awakened her magic and learned magic.
But shes still wearing the gift I gave her. I take it, she doesnt hate it.
