Chapter 97 (1/2)

Strangely he could immediately tell where the girl named Athanasia was without having to look for her. And when he saw her in the white rose garden with her blonde hair flying around.

Claude felt an unknown longing.

But he didn’t feel like being shaken from that today. So Claude stretched out his hand with murderous intent without hesitation.

Clang! Smash!

As magic was tossed against itself, it swallowed the two people. The sharp sound of glass cracking filled the air.

Crack!

The person who met his eyes should’ve realized they were about to be killed, but didn’t step back.

Was it because they were frozen in fear? Or did they still believe they wouldn’t be killed by him?

Whatever it was, it was foolish. It would be better for her to run away right now.

Claude pretended not to know the lingering feeling in his mind of hoping for her to run away.

Fizz! Clang!

The magic protecting her was clearly his magic. He laughed in belief at the many layers of magic.

It was quite ironic that he was the one breaking it.

Clang! Shatter!

Claude had to grit his teeth to continue doing what he was. He fought the questions arising in his head.

Was this really what he wanted? After he was done, could he be sure he wouldn’t regret it?

Claude forcefully agreed.

Of course. He stepped foot in the garden to do this. But…..

Why did his heart hurt, like he was about to die?

Like he would also die if the person in front of his died, trying to harm the girl in front of him felt horrible and dreadful.

Clang!

Now there was only one layer of magic left.

And his hand reached the neck of the girl. Her palpitating heartbeat traveled up his arm and he unconsciously dropped his grip from her snow white neck.

Flare!

And it was then.

The white light waved like tides and combined with the flowers to turn into a whole other white substance.

He thought it was the remains of the broken magic, but that wasn’t it.

Pop pop.

They were white shining bubbles. Claude’s eyes widened seeing the person standing in front of him being swallowed up by the bubbles.

His surroundings were flashing white to the point of blinding his vision. It became harder to tell if this was a dream or reality. As Claude was blanking holding out his hand, the girl started to fade away in bubbles.

He stretched his hand out again.

But this time it wasn’t to kill her.

No. Don’t go.

Like she had in his dream, Claude gaped his mouth in desperation. But he couldn’t grasp anything in the white bubbles…..

“Bye, Dad.”

The wave of lights blinded his eyes and the girl whispered towards him. Like a final goodbye. Like it was her farewell to him.

And the light disappeared.

Ah, that…..he had never felt that kind of fear in his entire life.

Claude hopelessly stood in the white rose garden that was eerily silent like nothing had happened.
