"We've had a lot of affection for you, so we're sorry to think we have to let you go."

The Count helped the Countess and murmured.

"I know. Maybe we should have a dinner party."

"But I'm glad a cure has been found. Isn't that right, Evelyn?"

The Countess stroked my head with a light smile. I nodded affirmatively.

It was a pity to break up right away, but I was grateful to think that Cassis would be healthy.

I've decided to trust you one more time. That promise that you won't forget me.

'You can't forget me either.'

Cassis's expression saying that was like me from my past life.

On the other hand, there is still anxiety left.

Maybe no one has kept a promise with him.

So I calmed his anxiety by nodding my head as much as I could.

I'll be that kind of person.

And now, a different sense of anxiety lingers here.

"I hope I can still hear good news from you."

The countess let out, the words feeling a little disturbing.

Cassis smiled softly and tried to reassure the countess.

Their reaction was natural. They're happy a cure was found, but the opponent is mana insensitivity, which was called an incurable disease.

It was natural for adults who saw Cassis, who had been suffering from severe symptoms recently, to be anxious.

Maybe if I didn't know the original novel, we'd worry about it together whenever he wasn't feeling well.

I stared at Cassis silently. His expression was resolute, calm.

A strange reaction, as if his sickness was nothing.

But I could see that even he wasn't quite sure if he was going to live or not.

A future that I knew for certain will look dark to Cassis.

Actually, I was also a little worried. The original novel was changing.

I'm not sure how that will change Cassis's fate.

But Cassis will bear it well.

I spoke in a strong tone, as if I were cutting off the bud of anxiety.

"I'm sure Cassis will endure it well. Maybe you'll get well soon and come to Montez. Isn't that right, Cassis?"

"Of course."

My support gently unfolded Cassis's hardened face as he agreed.

The smile on his lips sparkled like a frozen lake.

As I stared at the smile blankly, he added.

"I'll come to see you when I'm healthy."

"......"

I was at a loss for words and blinked.

Meanwhile, Cassis picked up the mug again with a graceful posture. As if nothing had happened.

But when I looked at his light pink-colored ears, he seemed to be embarrassed by his remarks.

The more he was, the more he would show graceful manners, following his usual habit.

That's what it is now.

When you look at his gestures, it seemed like he was drinking tea, but in fact, it was milk tea with honey.
