Chapter 103.2

“….!”

The sound of pain was muffled by the water. It was as if the blue fire was burning Duke Alors.

Duke Alors’s eyes widened.

But that was it. He was finished.

It was the moment when Argenta seized complete victory.

* * *

Crackle!

Diello thought the fire clinging to his fingertips was different from before. It was a much more powerful flame than before as if one of the walls that had been confining me had been lifted. But there were still several more layers of that wall remaining.

He unconsciously rubbed the spot where the lily was.

The lily, which had been slightly blurred, flared up with a blue light before subsiding. The blue light resembled the blue light of Krua.

“Are you alright?”

Krua’s voice came through.

Diello forgot to answer for a moment and just looked at her.

As he looked at her, the lily seemed to flare up again. The extent to which the power of the house was amplified varied from person to person. However, it was said that a powerful Ferro would amplify the magic power even before the lily was completely erased.

Still, he hadn’t even found the Ferro yet.

No, or so he thought.

As he could already feel his flames burning hotter, he opened his mouth slightly.

The answer was so close.

Why would Venia be the first to become a Ferro, leaving you behind? Perhaps it was because Diello himself had forgotten about the girl’s existence. To be precise, it was because he didn’t know who she was.

Foolishly.

“…Krua.”

“Yes.”

He didn’t know the child in the past was her.

Diello asked, looking at her, who was brightly shining.

“By any chance, have we met in the past…?”

Even though the lily was already telling him the answer, he couldn’t help but ask. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to accept this overwhelming feeling.

At that, Krua blinked.

“Have you ever comforted me, saying that it’s okay to fail?”

Diello asked again in a trembling voice. He clearly saw a smile blooming on her face even before his question began. It was a change he could tell because that moment felt like an eternity.

It felt like time had stopped until Krua answered.

Drip.

Then, the moment the silence was broken by the water dripping from the ceiling. Her answer echoed through the conference room.

“Yes.”

Diello’s lips twitched, and then a look of joy spread across his face.

“…It really was you.”

So it was her.

Whatever the problem was, it seemed she was always by his side when he needed comfort.

Clank.

He sheathed his sword and approached Krua. His steps, which had been slow at first, gradually quickened, and by the time he reached her. Even though it was a short distance, he felt as if he was out of breath.

His lips touched the back of Krua’s hand.

“I’m ashamed that I didn’t know.”

There couldn’t have been two voices in the world that were so sweet and persuasive.

…So it was her.

It was at that moment when he closed his eyes in newfound realization.

Boom—!

A heavy explosion echoed outside.

The building, which was engulfed in flames, began to crumble under the impact. Whether another oil drum had exploded outside or not, the burning debris did not easily extinguish even when it hit the water.

However, Diello was no longer afraid of fire.

The heat and humidity held were the same. Moreover, the much-amplified power of fire was enveloping his body.

Crackle!

He cleanly turned the debris of the building that was about to fall on his head into ashes and blew it away. In the meanwhile, Krua, his wife, looked at him with her eyes wide open like a rabbit in surprise.

Diello took her hand and led her as if escorting her.

“How…”

She seemed to sense it faintly as well since she had also become a head.

The power of his strengthened fire.

Diello smiled smoothly.

The sky above was filled with dark clouds. He could see that the full moon, which had been brightly illuminating the surroundings even though it was late at night, had just been covered.

It was starting to drizzle.

It was an environment where Argenta would weaken. Moreover, the rain seemed to be getting heavier. However, as long as Krua was by his side, he had nothing to fear.

“I’ll tell you that secret later.”

It seemed it wasn’t something trivial enough to tell her in a place like this.

He kissed the back of Krua’s neck.

The starting point between the delicate necklines and the wing bones that appeared when he followed them. The place where his name, not the work of Duke Alors, would be fully engraved.

“Let’s take care of the battlefield first.”

A hot flame flared up once again in Diello’s hand.
