Kapitel 242: The 9th Companion and Breakthrough

"Entrusting my life with you..."

With that question, Fleur fell silent. Based on her current expression, she's currently asking herself the same question.

Thinking about it, that's all it will probably take for someone to be my Companion. To entrust both of our lives with each other. The convergence of destiny which the Spirit Queen mentioned was just a representation of that.

Over time, Fleur's hand that was interlocked with mine tightened its grip. She lifted her face and stared straight at me, that deep shade of red communicating to my very soul.

Before she could decide, I once again reaffirmed my feelings for her.
