Bab 140: Our peaceful days are over

"Aurelia, what do you mean by 'wipe your memory'? You will forget about me?" Fruity asked, looking at the young lady beside him.

Aurelia gave him a complicated smile and replied, "I know, Fruity. But I can't be the reason people come after you. If I know about your ice, it only makes it more dangerous for you."

"But you will forget about me. You're my only friend," Fruity said, his voice tinged with sadness.

"And you are my only friend too," Aurelia said, tears welling up in her eyes. "But I can't let my presence put you in danger. I have to let go of the small memories we have. I can't risk your life for my own unwillingness to forget."

The Ice Princess spoke up, "Aurelia is right, Fruity. She needs to forget. But don't worry. I will take her to the Ice Palace. Once you're strong enough, you can come search for her. For now, you should return to the monastery. It's the best place for you to hide and grow stronger."
