Capítulo 337: Be generous; give home to your local mythical beast, and get your own guardian contract!

When I woke up, my pillow was stiff from dried tears. Jade was caressing my cheek, and Ignis had come back from its cave to curl its tail around my wrist.

I reached out to stroke their head and sighed. "I'm sorry," I whispered, and they scooted closer to my neck, nuzzling me. "I'll be better tomorrow, promise."

At that time, the bedroom door opened softly, revealing Angwi who held a mug of herbal drink in one hand, a tray of biscuits with another, and a plate of jelly with another hand. She paused for a short few seconds, eyes trained on my face, before finally resuming her steps.

She put everything in her hands on top of the bedside table, and took a seat on the edge of the bed. And then, gently, she patted me rhythmically as if she was singing a silent nursery song. I rolled to my side and scooted closer to her like an automatic reaction. She caressed my hair then, and while she was no Natha, I felt better already.
