'What in the world is currently happening?'

For just a moment, Noel's brain felt like it was struck by lightning. He couldn't think of anything. In fact, even the gentle kiss from Anna completely felt nothing.

He was completely confused to the point he could only ask what was happening. This was Anna he was talking about.

On the one hand, Noel thought Anna was his friend after all the things they had experienced together. On the other hand, he never thought of Anna more than that, considering he had sworn not to bother with any relationship first before rebuilding his family. After all, it would just cause more problems with his swordsmanship and family.

Yet, this one kiss took him completely by surprise.

Anna gently moved away from him. Looking at how shocked Noel was couldn't help but make her chuckle. This was the first time she saw Noel like this.

The calm and composed Noel was nowhere for a moment.

And before he recovered, Anna waved his hand and put on the best smile she had.

It might be due to the kiss, but Noel's eyes were fixated on her lips. It ended up making him more conscious about the words she was about to speak.

"I have told you everything. All I can say is that I will continue to follow your news. This time, I have found a new goal for myself and I will seriously aim for it. Thank you, Noel."

The words 'Thank You' had only one meaning. She wanted to thank him for everything he had done for her, including the fact that he considered her his friend and ignored the friction between them.
