Episode 101
Eugeneâs eyes shook at Raylâs words.
From Raylâs point of view, it looked as if the frozen lake was breaking apart in an instant.
Eugene, who opened his mouth to say something, closed his mouth again and bit his lips with his teeth.
âNo, Iâve known it since the ball for the Foundation Day of the Academy, but I didnât know that you had such a deep feeling.â
Eugene didnât deny or affirm what Rayl said.
He just smacked his lips silently, with his blue eyes facing the floor.
But Rayl didnât miss it.
Eugeneâs cheeks are red.
ââ¦â¦how did you know?â
It took a long time for that tightly closed mouth to open.
When a low voice finally came out of his mouth, Rayl gave a succinct answer.
âJust. You know when you see itââ
Rayl replied with a slight smile.
âYou care a lot about Yerine.â
At the words, Eugene strode forward to Rayl.
âHey, Rayl Diamond.â
âYes.â
When he looked up his blue eyes, Eugene spoke low in a threatening voice.
âYou, donât tell anyone about this.â
Some part of him wanted to tell Eugene that some people already knew Eugene had a crush on Yerine, but Rayl tried to bury it in his heart.
This is because Eugene was looking at him as if heâs going to throw his body into the battleground and blowing up the strongest attack magic if he opened his mouth.
âI wonât tell you. I couldnât be your friend if I canât keep this as a secret.â
âIf you tell anyone about this, friends or heirs, whatever you are, Iâm going to attack you right away.â
Rayl shuddered at Eugeneâs threat.
âOkay, okay, I wonât tell. You know I have a heavy mouth.â
Eugene looked at Rayl with very suspicious eyes as if he disagreed, but Rayl laughed it off.
âBy the way, is it that obvious? That I like her that much?â
For more,
Cassiusâs gold eye shone under the feeble moonlight as if it had not been smeared at all.
âWhy did he turn into a tiger at a time like this?â
Thatâs what I thought and pointed to the seat next to me.
âCome and sit down.â
âThank you.â
Cassius, as I said, came and sat next to me, and for a while, then silence fell.
ââ¦â¦you just used a blue flame.â
âHuh?â
âItâs not because Iâm scared. It could be an attack, so Iâm just trying to defend myself with the most powerful magic.â
Cassius looked at me and replied in a low voice to the belated excuse.
âOh, I didnât say anything, Yerine. Anyway, I see.â
Cassius seemed to sneak over, but it was all written on his face.
âTsk, itâs true that you thought I was scared.â
I hope Cassius will one day erase it from his memory.
If I, one of the Householders of the 7 Imperial Family and the top performer of the Academy, mistake the voice behind my back for a ghost and put on fire magic, Iâm sure Iâll want to run out of the window.
âI donât want to imagine it.â
Then Cassius opened his mouth.
âBy the way, Yerine, why are you out there? I didnât expect to bump into you at this hour.â
âJust, I have something to think about.â
âThen, itâs great.â
Cassius smiled at my words.
At that moment, his face, which was fine after eating chocolate, passed through my memory.
âI had something to tell you anyway.â
âWhat do you mean?â
Cassius replied with a grin.
âImportant things.â
Somehow, his smile was more ferocious than usual, with a fascinating atmosphere.
Suddenly, my heartbeat began to accelerate.
âWait a minute.â
There is no one around.
Itâs just the two of us.
And itâs night.
In short, it is a very good environment to create a romantic situation.
The atmosphere of Cassius was also very unusual.
âYouâre not going to confess, are you?â
At that time when I was swallowing my inner scream, his golden eyes were full of me.
âââââ
