Chapitre 51: Her bruise

On the way to confront Takahashi Ami,

Ryuu could not soothe himself. The bruise on Laurestine's back kept bothering him. How could that old woman hurt Laurestine? Why did Laurestine let others injure her? From the first time they met, Ryuu knew Laurestine would fight back bravely.

Her boldness was on another level. The way she swayed her fist in the face of a man right in front of him and others, indicated how courageous she was. And yet, she let that old woman leave a bruise on her! How was that acceptable? His blood boiled on the inside.

The exasperation was hard to control. Seeing Laurestine with a bruise drove him insane. Even he restrained himself from holding her tightly because he feared she might be bruised! Ryuu was ready to risk it all. The responsibility he held did not make it on time!
