“Do you still want to fight in that state?”
“What?” Valentine gritted her teeth and finally got up in a sitting pose. “Are you kidding me, Shin? This man isn’t someone you can win over. Run when you still have a chance. I’ll stall you time…”
“...”
Shin did not answer. He only pointed at Valentine and a glowing cross appeared where she was sitting. The warmth slowly calmed her down. She could finally breathe almost normally.
“A healing magic?” Valentine raised her eyebrow and looked at her brother’s back.
“You just stay there and heal. I’ll take this from here.”
“Take this from here?” Valentine screeched. “Are you crazy? I just told you that he’s…”
“Don’t you understand me, sis? I said not to interfere.”
His answer was simple, and he was composed. He turned to look at Valentine for the first time and Valentine halted. The lavender eyes sparkled like never before. Moreover, her little brother was smiling. It was such a gentle smile.
