章 45: "Are you running away, again?"

Haaaa–

"Are you not done yet with your morning sighing session?"

Anni commented while she waited for Robert to move away from the mirror and put on clothes.

Ever since Mila disappeared, Robert's morning includes staring while sighing in front of a full-length mirror. Robert was greatly displeased by his physical appearance after taking on the character of Ronard. Although at first they only used a disguise spell for Robert to look like Ronard, the more he kept his role as Ronard, the more his body began to tone down identically to his late brother.

"How about you?"

"What about me?"

"Aren't you tired of reminding me not to sigh every morning?"

"Not tired but more confused. Why do you always look displeased when looking at yourself in the mirror?"

Robert sighed once more before responding to Anni.

"I am becoming more like Ronard. I don't want my original self to be forgotten, and this face is someone I really hate."
