Sacrifice of the Young Maiden

Nyla was joyous as she saw him worry about her. She could feel his forehead on her as the Magenta-haired beauty was ready to leave this world with a happy heart.

Rio felt hopeless and broken as if his heart was stabbed with a sharp dagger.

Just when The crimson-haired boy thought he wouldn't able to save the girl in his embrace, a concerning voice sounded in his mind.

"Rio??? Is everything fine?" Lia questioned him in his thought via telepathy.

She asked as Rio hadn't sent any messages and talk to her for several hours. Lia was getting worried for him so she decided to ask since it wasn't like him to not talk to her for an extended period of time. 

 "Nyla is dying... She took the lethal attack that was meant for me." Rio said in a sorrowful voice and cried to her via telepathy.
