“…How extravagant…”
I mumbled and looked at Nigel who was lying on the ground. As for Salsaal, he’d already ran away ever since Haref started to gather his magic – not because he was scared but because he felt too nauseated and couldn’t stand it anymore so, he had to retreat from the scene to prevent himself from throwing up.
I glanced at Arian and saw acceptance within his eyes. Arian walked down towards Nigel as did the rest of the other to-be Dukes who’d been looking at the battle from far away. Out of the corner of my eye, I could see Duncan Kay and his harem, cough! All of them walked down together awkwardly…naturally, when Duncan saw me, his eyes held curiosity which later turned into slight anger. I’m sure he’ll come to interrogate me about the 4P.
However, I’ve obviously prepared an escape plan to get me out of this situation. I guarantee, with Gilbert Bedivere’s mouth, even if nothing happened between you guys, I will make up stories to make all of you husband and wives!
I looked at Haref then Nigel and decided it’s best to go to Nigel. Even if he may look haggard but he still is…handsome. The game’s bias is truly terrible…
I used my hands to wipe his face for him but it was actually an evil plan to make his face even more dirty. Unfortunately…he still looks handsome.
“Does it hurt?”
“A bit…”, he closed his eyes, “…but I feel at ease.”
…You feel at ease because of pain, bro, don’t you dare cross over the bridge and become a masochist!
Since I was worried about his mental health, I decided to stop messing with his face and earnestly wiped it. I couldn’t stop myself from telling him, “Please love yourself more…look at you, your power’s all depleted…”
His argent eyes blinked and he mumbled, “…In the past….you also told me this…”
“…”
“…to love myself…more.”
At that time, he. himself could not quite understand the meaning of those words. He only knew that those words had helped him when he was young, even if the person in front of him may not have a clue…
“The wider your smile is, the happier you are that’s why…!”
“Nigel, you’re going to be super duper happy!”
“Thank you.”, he said and smiled, a smile more beautiful than any other.
“Aw…Mr Handsome.”, your smile isn’t making me blush but it sure is making me jealous of your features! “Does it hurt a lot? You’re probably not going to be able to move for a while since you’ve depleted your powers. Come on, have a rest!”
I giggled and touched his forehead.
I unsealed some of his powers to make him able to move around a bit. Nigel’s countenance improved because the power that I’d unsealed started to circulate his body, replenishing his power’s reserve.
…You’re back to being so incredibly handsome it makes me jealous!
Spurt!!
The pair of argent eyes were wide open. Nigel who was previously a tad bit mucky was now filled with blood that spurted out. I flinched, my head started to extremely hurt as if I was thinking about something I didn’t want to think about.
The time that was filled with the smell of blood.
The time when my psychotic fujoshi lil sis died.
My heart was beating rapidly. I started to become unable to hear anything. I couldn’t even hear anything even when someone was shaking me. My head hurt so much it felt like it would shatter into pieces. I couldn’t stand looking at Nigel. The red blood was all over his body. He seemed to be in immense pain…pain…
…hey, lil’ sis, when you died, did you feel as much pain as Nigel is experiencing right now.
My head hurts. It hurts. It hurts. It hurts.
Nigel trembled, his face was ghastly. His mouth was ajar as if he was wailing. As more time went by, his body was dyed with even more crimson blood. All the other to-be Dukes came in and held him. They tried to stop the bleeding. I, who was closest to Nigel, I extended my hands and placed it on Nigel.
Bright crimson dripped down onto him.
In truth…
That was not Nigel’s blood…
…but mine.
My ears which were not able to hear previously, worked once more.
“I can’t control it! I can’t control it!! I can’t control it!!!!! Whyyyyyy!!!”
“Nigel calm yourself down. Dammit!! Gilbert!! Gilbert Bedivere!!”
…
“Nigel Gawain…when he was young, the ceremony revealed that he has the power and the guardian of ice but when he grew up, the truth came out that he actually possesses the forbidden element: water. This element can control any liquid…naturally, that includes ‘blood'”
Salsaal’s words when we were young…
“…We would like to bless you with power…high level magic that you will never be able to attain in your entire life no matter how hard you try!”
…and Excalibur’s blessing.
Was there anything else…I thought silently to myself. In the blink of an eye, I saw a small body of a certain someone who I had been searching for for a long time. My lil’ bro…
“Elder brother!!”
I can’t think anymore…
Nigel’s countenance has become worse. Do you know that the more you panic, the harder it is to control your power. Another thing, you’ve got such a handsome face but making that kind of face is just…
“I like it when you smile, Nigel.”
“Nigel, smile…”
“The wider your smile is, the happier you are that’s why…!”
“Nigel, you’re going to be super duper happy!”
“No…No…N….Arghhhhhhh!!!”
Why aren’t you smiling, Nigel….

This chapter’s been a roller coaster of emotions but trust me, the worst is yet to come.
