I will be with you. Part II

I sincerely rejoice with him.

There are only a few people who come to send him off as he is about to leave. I am quite surprised to see Arian. According to what I have heard, he was Cass' mentor for a short time when Cass was Duke Bedivere.

Arian complains about Cass' decision before finally wishing him luck. His expression resembles that of a real older brother rather than Cass' real older brother.

Hareve utters only a few words of blessing. He says that Cass can take care of himself and there is nothing to worry about.

As for me...

I close my eyes for a moment before opening them and looking at him. "Finally, you’re able to stop me."

Cass, on the other hand, shakes his head. "It was Salzaal, not me, who could stop you. I am still...just an arrogant one who said I would stop you, but in the end, I hesitated and could only say it." His golden-brown eyes begin to fade.

“May I…hug you?”

I hug him instead of saying anything.
