Chapter 86

The promenade was covered with a thin white sheet from the light snowfall. The evergreen trees swayed in the light breeze. Meanwhile, Ian stood blankly as if he had forgotten to even blink.

“Ian?”

Laritte asked, a slight frown forming on her features. His golden eyes followed as she waved her palm in front of him.

He seemed to be alive at least……

Laritte lifted her face again. Placing her head in a similar position as before with Ian hunched over her, she kissed him lightly again. Ian, who had been frozen until then, shifted again. Thanks to her exhaled breath.

“Laritte, stop. Stop it.”

The fact that she was still sick woke him up. It was time for him to return to reality. He himself shouldn’t be around Laritte for long. ‘When Laritte recovers, I must return to the Capital.’

“I think I like Ian…..,” Laritte’s words rang through his head, but that wasn’t it. It didn’t help that he liked her and she liked him. He needed to leave.

He turned to the side other than Laritte. He gave his coat to her, but he wasn’t cold at all. Rather, the two kisses one after the other made him feel like he was in flames.

“The coat that I gave….. you can throw it away or burn it. That’s it.”

He took a step forward as Laritte watched. Crossing her arms and holding his coat in place, she opened her mouth. “Are you going to leave again?”

“……”

No answer.

Laritte shrugged and stroked her hair. She had a good way to stop him, “I haven’t seen any signs of you for a few dozen minutes here. Only the pile of snow gave testimony that no one was nearby. But when I accidentally fell, you showed up.”

She had simply let him go when he left a few months ago. Maybe it was because he hated her, she thought initially. But there was no way that happened. And thanks to Seta’s advice, she knew the reason now.

“If you leave like this, I won’t move a single step from here. It’s no use sending someone else.”
