One Hundred Years As An Extra Chapter 61

I felt like I had succeeded in a very arduous goal. I felt so happy right now. Regardless of anything, the fact that Kaichen had acknowledged and recognized made all warm and fuzzy. I am going to stick right next to him forever…

Even if I completed this novel with a happy ending, I wanted things to remain like this. I wanted to live peacefully with him. I always had an image of enjoying the rural life alone. I always pictured myself alone. Was it because I had accepted that there would be no one with ? Or was it because I knew that nobody would ever understand my loneliness and pain?

I was lonely from the mont I arrived in this novel and realized I was neither the protagonist, nor soone important or likable. I was trapped in a world which was under a spell for a hundred years. It made despair. I hadn’t afforded myself the luxury of wishing soone to like and understand .

So, I had decided I would help Julius until he beca an emperor and quietly disappear into a peaceful life in the country for the rest of my life. Well… that was what I had planned until…

I looked at Kaichen, who was quietly biting the siron and looking at the yellow willow leaves swaying in the wind. I wanted to freeze this mont and preserve it. I wished it would always be like. I wanted to stay here in this tranquil mont with a little anxiety gnawing at my heart.

Couldn’t I just tell him everything? Kaichen was a serious and strict man, but he would never abandon no matter how ugly my truth was. Would he understand ? I had committed a hefty cri. Could he really brush that away and be with ? I wanted to tell him. I didn’t expect him to understand , but I wanted sobody to tell that it was okay. That everything would be okay.

I wanted to share it with soone in the hopes that the burden would be lighter on . I rembered tat day when I was struggling with the symptoms of addiction, Kaichen had comforted and told that everything would be okay. That I will be alright.

I wanted to pour out my secrets and hear him say the sa. That it was going to be alright. Am I greedy in wishing that? I sat there debating for and against the idea until eventually I couldn’t really tell him. Kaichen had just acknowledged and accepted as his disciple, I didn’t want that to be ruined. Human being are desperate creatures. I was used to his cold indifference and harsh words, but the warmth he had shown today made want more of it. I didn’t want him to revert back to his cold self towards again.

I couldn’t help it. My heart fluttered whenever he looked at with that warmth in his eyes. Besides, I didn’t want to ruin this tranquil and peaceful mont we shared together. I wanted to keep this mont with . Next ti when I have a chance to tell him, I won’t avoid it.

I organized my thoughts and tried to lie back down on the bench. A golden butterfly flew by. Kaichen was obsessed with gold, I guessed.

“A magic letter.”

Each wizard had a different shape of receiving a magic letter. Julius’ was, obviously, of blazing blue flas. Kaichen’s was a gold butterfly. It was adorable that a cold, towering Kaichen had such an amiable ssenger form. Kaichen seed to avert my gaze.

“Your ssenger… is very much like you.”

Kaichen glanced at . The butterfly landed on his index finger before dissolving into gold powder and spitting out a parchnt. It was so fascinating. This was my first ti seeing a magic ssage. It was entrancing. In this world, letter could be sent by anyone via the Magic Association for a price. However, magical ssages could be sent only by registered wizards. Usually, it’s in the form of a round spere of light that flies to the person and disperses. Kaichen’s was beautiful. It, however, consud mana so I was surprised when Kaichen opted for magic ssages. Usually, he likes to keep his mana consumption to the minimum and doesn’t care for fancy ssengers.

However, sending magical ssages was very convenient. The ssages get delivered to great distances and really fast. But it costs a lot of money…. Great wizards usually stored a part of their mana on objects which they use to communicate, like the ring Kaichen uses to communicate with Julius. It was much like a video call. I was curious. If it was Julius, he would have just communicated through Kaichen’s ring, so who could have sent a magic letter?

“It’s for you,” said Kaichen.

“What?!”

Kaichen handed the parchnt. I accepted it. I recalled telling Angel, whom I had entrusted with the managent of the mansion before leaving Acrab, that he could send a letter and address it to Kaichen in ergencies.
