Shou spent his time again in the secret room, he had already finished reading dozens of books in that day.
He returned to the palace just at midnight and passed Hikari by.
“Master, why disappear again?” Hikari hugged Shou tightly enough to feel tight.
“Please!” Shou stammered.
Hikari also let go of his embrace, “I will not leave the master again, because left for a while already instantly disappeared.” Hikari looked pouted.
Looks like he's serious
“I was studying some magic in this world, even though I still can't use it.”
“Master, am I not enough for you? I am so strong!” Hikari held Shou's arm.
“Our current opponents are very strong, like that time. You didn't dare to fight it before even trying.”
Hearing that, Hikari looked gloomy.
“Sorry sir, that black angel is so powerful. The power was far above the 7th dragon king, back then he was still not serious. If he is serious, this kingdom can be destroyed in minutes.”
Shou was surprised to hear that, the situation was worse than he thought. If the demon lord had such a powerful pawn, all the plans made by Shou would be in vain.
Shou sighed, at first he thought his plan could go well. However, it turns out that there is still a power beyond reason that is very terrible.
“Thank you for telling me about it, that way I can prepare a better plan.” Shou's hands were trembling. Hikari who knew that, hugged Shou slowly.
“Cry as much as you, sir, I will always be here with you!”
This time it was not Hikari who was acting spoiled. He hugged Shou warmly, letting Shou let out all his frustration all along.
“Why is there always a problem? Can I escape this responsibility? This world is not mine, it should not be my responsibility right?”
“That's right sir, sir there's no need to take responsibility for any of this. You just need to do what you can, don't push yourself too much.”
Shou cried more profusely, “then why, do I feel I have to help them?”
Hikari smiled, “that is the nature of living things, if there is evil then there will be good. If anyone doesn't care, someone will care. Sir must include people who care, then it's only natural.”
“Then, what should I do?”
Hikari let go of her embrace, “for that, listen to your inner voice sir! The heart cannot lie. What do you want to do? Why did the master do it? Your heart will surely be able to answer. Although you ask even the smartest people, the one who understands your heart the most is your own master.”
Shou stopped crying, he already felt much more relieved than before. Hikari wiped away the remaining tears, their gazes meeting each other.
Hikari suddenly felt embarrassed from looking at her for too long.
“Thanks, Hikari!” Shou smiled.
Why does my heart suddenly beat faster? Hikari murmured in the heart.
“Sama-sama sir!” Hikari turned her face away. Somehow since then he felt he could not look Shou in the eye for too long.
