“There’s a glow in the eyes….”

Erica murmured blankly.

She stopped crying and looked down at Yerine with a surprised look.

“She could be saved!”

Eugene shouted in an urgent voice.

“The woman said it earlier, if there’s still a glow in her eyes, then we have a chance!”

Eugene was right.

Fainted in the woods of the Dragon Lady. Shortly after waking up, they heard from the woman that Yerine had left alone to stop the prince.

The woman also told them that Yerine would be at a crossroads between life and death.

And she said it’s very likely that she lost her consciousness.

The woman told the shocked, contemplated way, how to save her life.

“But there’s a condition.”

She said there were conditions in implementing the method.

Yerine’s left eye should not be completely ruined.

“Eugene is right. The glow in her eyes means her eyes aren’t ruined.”

Rayl, who had his hands and feet tied, crawled toward Yerine using his knees, breathed and said that.

Cassius’s hand, which is supporting Yerine’s shoulder, was strengthened.

‘Please, this time.’

Cassius opened his mouth, burying the desperate feeling in his heart.

Salty tears flowed into his mouth.

“Please, help me.”

He tried to calm down his trembling voice.

He was afraid that he might chew his tongue or say his wish wrong, so he clearly recited his wish again and again.

“Please return Yerine’s body and mana and back to the state she was before she hurt.”

He missed her so much with her eyes open.

There were so many things he couldn’t say yet.

He couldn’t let it go like this.

“Please return to a state before she gets hurt.”

When Cassius talked about his wishes, Astra and Erica joined hands.

Erica soon closed her eyes and bowed her head.

She sincerely hopes that Cassius’s wish will come true.

Soon after, Eugene and Rachel closed their eyes and knelt.

Rayl, who could not put his hands together because his hands were tied, took the place of kneeling and bowing his head.

Cassius was the only one who said his wish in person, but everyone was in unity and earnestly hoped that the wish would come true.

‘Please let me see Yerine again.’

Cassius stroked the purple hair with a faint touch and looked inward.

‘Please let me tell her what I haven’t said yet.’

That I like her.

That I like her the way she is.

I desperately wanted to be able to convey the words.

‘Give me a chance to be nice to her for the rest of the time, as she was struggling for me.’

Transparent tears rolled down from his golden eyes.

Soon, tears fell near Yerine’s half-closed fly left eye.

“…….return it, please.”

After Cassius had said all his wishes, there was silence in the room for a while.

And a much more intense light leaked from the red eyes half-covered by the eyelids than before.

The light became more and more intense.

Soon the light became bright and strong enough to fill the entire room.

The light was so intense that the five people surrounding Yerine could not see the light with their bare eyes.

Cassius clasped Yerine’s shoulders with both hands and closed his eyes.

‘It’s too bright…….!’

The light from her eyes was not only intense but warm.

When Cassius opened his eyes, he saw a red light surrounding Yerine’s entire body.

On the other hand, he wondered if it was really okay since the power of eyes was so powerful.

However, he also thought that the light would not harm Yerine.

It was because the light was similar to the colour of Yerine’s left eye and the dragon woman’s eye.

‘Please…….’

From some point on, the light gradually faded.

When the bright light disappeared and the surrounding area calmed down, Cassius opened his eyes.

Others gradually opened their closed eyes and began to look around.

“Yerine…”

Yerine’s left eye, which was half-open, was completely closed again.

“What happened?”

Eugene asked with an uneasy voice.

“Yerine, Yerine!”

Cassius tried calling her name a couple of times, but Yerine didn’t wake up.

“The wound is gone.”

Rachel, who was looking at Yerine’s body, shouted.

As she said, the terrible burns left on her limbs were completely gone, leaving only bloodstains.

“Did you wish to work?”

Erica asked in a desperate voice.

She had tears in her eyes that resembled a tourmaline.

Her pink eyes shook as if she had put the tourmaline in the water.

“Yerine.”

A voice that swallowed her tears called her name.

A big hand wrapped around her face.

Cassius wanted to see her, who blushed every time he did that.

“I miss you…….”

It was just then.

Yerine cracked her fingers which were covered with blood and ash on them.

“Huh?”

As soon as Rachel exclaimed with surprise, Cassius saw Yerine’s eyelashes shaking.

Soon, the closed eyelids slowly opened.

In between, beautiful purple and red eyes appeared.

“Cassius…….”

Both eyes were intact without any wounds.

In particular, the red eyes, which he thought would never return, had a beautiful glow that resembled ruby as usual.

Feeling dizzy, Yerine frowned slightly on the forehead and raised her upper body.

She looked around and murmured blankly as if she hadn’t figured out the situation yet.

“Is this a dream………?”

Cassius hugged her tightly without saying a word.

“Ca, Cassius?”

“This is not a dream.”

The moment she felt the heavy sinking voice and warm body temperature, Yerine knew that all of this was not a dream.

She knew that when she saw her friends crying at her.

Only then did she raise her arms and wrap them around Cassius’ back.

“I, I don’t know how……….”

Cassius, who could not overcome his tears, ended up not finishing his sentence.

When the hot tears wet her shoulders, tears ran into Yerine’s eyes.

“I’m sorry.”

“I really missed you…….”

Tears streamed down Yerine’s cheeks.

Tears flowed from her left eye, which she had considered completely ruined until a while ago.

“Yerine…….”

Erica called Yerine’s name with tears in her eyes.

She wrapped her back and shoulders in Cassius’s arms and wept.

“I’m glad you’re alive. I’m so glad…….!”

Starting with her, who started crying at the end of her voice, everyone else burst into tears.

“Why did you go out alone like a fool? I thought my heart stopped beating when I heard that.”

“Don’t ever do that again, Yerine, I’m not gonna let you do that again.”

At the last minute, everyone was surrounding Yerine.

Yerine felt suffocated by the weight of her friends who rushed at once, but she did not resist them.

Rather, she was thankful for the point of tears.

‘I survive.’

Those who love her.

And she was so happy that she could see her loved ones again.

***

It was a cool night when the wind blew.

The backyard of the annexe to the northeast of the Academia was calm, unlike the day when it was full of students.

There were only two people here, Cassius and me.

“It’s been a while since I’ve been here.”

My voice was heard in the warm wind.

“Yes.”

Cassius’s calm voice came to my ears.

Unlike the night of the school anniversary ball, where the cold wind blew, there was a warm wind blowing in the backyard today.

“The wind is warm. Spring is coming soon.”

“Yes, winter is over now.”

As Cassius said, the flower bed in the annexe was shyly opening its bud.

After a few days, the place will be full of colourful flowers.

Our footsteps naturally headed for the mistletoe passage.

On the night when our future was uncertain, to the place where Cassius kissed me.

I squeezed my fist at the memory that came to mind.

“I thought I couldn’t come here again.”

When I made a wish and felt the pain of burning my body, I really thought so.

Thanks to Cassius’ wish, I survived, my body returned to the same state as before as well as my left eye.

I did an additional examination just in case, but my body was surprisingly fine.

Even now, a week later, when I recalled the memories of that day, I used to tear a little.

“So, what kind of promise are you going to make today?”

I rolled up the tail of my lips and smiled mischievously.

“Well. It’s not a promise, it’s a declaration.”

Cassius replied with a smile. Bright moonlight lit him.

His golden eyes were as colourful and transparent as the moon.

‘Declaration?’

Hearing those words, I couldn’t predict exactly what Cassius would say.

“I had something I wanted to say, but I couldn’t afford it.”

“To me?”

“That’s right.”

Cassius turned his head and said, looking at the flower bed in the backyard.

“But now there is no Iker, and the situation has been sorted out to some extent.”

My only wish that I wish to extinction was the monsters that absorb large amounts of mana.

Iker, who tried to accept my magic through the monster, disappeared without a trace.

It was clear that he could not withstand the overflowing mana.

When the controlling person disappeared, the remaining monsters naturally scattered, and the energy absorbed by the monster returned to its original owner.

Cassius looked back at me and stared at me quietly.

My eyes seemed to remember even a small feature of his face.

It was a face that came to mind that night.

Slowly, my heart rate began to accelerate.

“……Yerine. ”

Soft and sweet voice.

It was a voice that no longer made me afraid of losing it.

His shining gold eyes looked straight to me.

It was the eyes that contained the light of the sun without shaking.

“I like you.”

A gentle echo touched my ear.

It was a lovely and warm sound.

His golden eyes still had a clear glow.

However, it was clear that his face covered in darkness would be slightly red.

“……then are you going to kiss my hand now?”

I smiled as I looked at the mistletoe hanging above it.

Cassius grinned and shook his head.

And he gently bent my shoulder and whispered.

“No, I’m going to do it somewhere else this time.”

In an instant, the fever ran into my face.

Then, a deep and sweet voice rang in my ears.

“Is it okay?”

The answer was fixed anyway.

Quietly nodded my head, the two lips touched in a breathtaking silence.

It was warm.
