I Became the Fiancé of a Crazy Heroine

Chapter 28-1

This was also one of the unique abilities that Exceed Rain possessed.

Whenever Exceed Rain wanted to conceal its whereabouts. It would use this ability, and the protagonist had also used it occasionally.

Of course, it couldnt be considered versatile since only Exceed Rain and the user were allowed to use it.

Ill have to stay quiet for a while In the meantime, Ill just increase my mana.

To effectively utilize Exceed Rains absorption of magic power, he had to increase the total amount of his mana.

As mana became scarce, the effect of absorbing magical power was amplified, and other unique abilities also had to be used.

Moreover, even if it was possible to exceed the total amount and accept magical power, it was not easy, and it would put a strain on the body even if it was possible.

What kind of impact will this accident have on Hanette?

If the ambush was an accident that had to happen, he could just let it go.

However, if it had nothing to do with the original plan, it could only be considered a variable.

Did It happen because I went on trip with Hanette?

It was impossible to distinguish whether the trip was part of the predetermined flow or an unexpected variable.

At this point, we are still in the early stages, and as Sion, he didnt know anything about the previous content.

In other words, it was something that he couldnt understand where and how things went wrong.

Ill have to think more about it to find an answer

What are you doing right now?

Im contemplating the meaning of the relic.

Youre putting mana into it, arent you?

Thats right. Im exerting my power specifically for my sister.

Exerting your power?

Now, no matter what happens, my sister wont get hurt.

Sion engraves mana completely into the necklace and hands it over to Hanette.

However, Hanette just looks at the necklace with a suspicious look.

Did you do something unnecessary again?

Its not unnecessary. Its not for anyone else.

What difference does it make if you put your mana inside it?

I told you earlier, my sister wont get hurt, right?

Why does it have to do with that?

Even if I tell you, you probably wont believe it.

*Sigh*

Hanette didnt show it, but she felt a faint sense of excitement.

Now, talking to Sion didnt even feel significant, as if it were just an ordinary part of everyday life.

It felt like the lies that were intertwined with gambling and alcohol were gradually fading away, as well as the life of being treated as a crazy young lady.

Arent you scared?

Are you talking about those guys who ambushed us?

Even though we dont know why, they tried to kill us. They might come after us again later.

Ill think about that when the time comes.

You might be strong, so it doesnt bother you, but I

Hanette trailed off at the end of her words and lowered her head.

Sion was quite good at using swordsmanship.

Since, he was still young, and the Royal Knights might approach him for recruitment.

Compared to him, she was just a coward who couldnt even look straight at people dying.

Thats why I told you to always carry the necklace. That way, I can help you.

How can you help me? Are you going to follow me around for the rest of my life?

If you really want me to, I can do that.

Sion answered without hesitation.

He had planned to protect Hanette until the protagonist arrived.

Because Hanette had to follow the flow of this world with the protagonist.

Even if he were not there, the mana engraved in the necklace would respond first.

Hehehe! Why so serious? I have a escort knights, so whats the point of carrying you around?

Hanette lied, suppressing her fear.

She could not make Sion uncomfortable over trivial emotions.

Instead, she could increase the number of escort knights to protect her or use magic to respond as soon as possible?

You mean it doesnt matter if Im not there? I can help whenever youre in need

Can that be done with just the necklace?

Put it in your pocket and carry it with you.

Do you think putting mana into the necklace will make a difference? Wake up.

My sister still doesnt trust me. I dont know what to do.

This ability did not necessarily activate just because the user wanted it to.

For the condition to be met, negative emotions had to be conveyed through an object imbued with Exceed Rains magic power.

The user could roughly specify the emotions to be conveyed, and Sion had set conditions such as physical pain or fear.

Isnt that superstition? They must have said that luck and miracles happen more often if you puts magic power into it, right?.

Do you think I have nothing better to do than to believe in something like that?

But you believed in it and bought it, didnt you? Thats why you also buy things like city souvenirs.

Why save money if youre not going to use it for something? You could say that I bought it just for fun.

Does it make sense that love will be fulfilled when red petals come out?

I just repeated what I heard. Oh, right. At that time, you took the flowers, right? what colour did you get?

That? Um

Hanette couldnt bring herself to speak as she recalled the memory of that time.

The citys famous flower. When she plucked them, only the red petals came at the end on all three of them.

She knew it was a superstition, but she didnt want to tell Sion the result, because its embarrassing.

I threw it away.

You threw away five silver coins?

It was your fault for spending money on such a thing.

Tell me honestly. Did you pluck the flowers?

Why would I ? Do you think Im like you?

You wouldnt just throw it away because of the price. I think threw it away only after plucking them?.

Hanettes face was about to turn red in embarrassment, but managed to control her expression with great effort.

Sion stared at Hanette quietly for an answer, but then stepped back.

You dont look good today, so Ill just go. Make sure to wear the necklace.

Ill wear it even if you dont tell me to. You can be so stubborn sometimes, huh?

Hanette let out a bitter laugh as she put on the necklace around her neck.

At first, there was a strange sensation around her neck, but it disappeared soon after.

The necklace, which had a violet light, had returned to its original form.

When I was ever stubborn?

Yeah. You dont know, do you? Or do you not want to remember because youre embarrassed?

I dont know what youre talking about. Call me if you need to go out. Ill accompany you.

I can go alone even if youre not here.

Do you want to cut your allowance in half?

Oh, really. Why do you bring that up again?

Then go alone.

Sion left the room with a smile.

Hanette watched him go and then sighed.

If you cant even speak how will you follow me for the rest of my life?

Hanette fiddled with the necklace, enjoying the familiar texture.

At first, it was quite uncomfortable, but now she rather liked it.

It was as if she was getting used to the necklace as her relationship with Sion grew closer.

Just a little should I believe it, just a little?
