“Cassius.”

In the voice of kindness and calling his name, Cassius shuddered.

“Brother?”

The two sparrows, who could not be aware of such Cassius’ anxiety, were singing merrily and eating their feed on Cassius’ hand.

“Your birds are very pretty.”

Iker smiled and talked.

“I like it.”

Years later, Cassius could not forget his brother, who looked down at the bird with his bright yellow eyes.

“Yes. Never run into him.”

Cacius replied to Yerine’s question.

From Yerine’s point of view, it would be hard to see why Cassius said this.

She might think that Cassius is overreacting, or he’s saying this out of jealousy.

Nevertheless, Cassius had to tell her this.

“I know it’s a shame, but you have to keep refusing to be his personal palace wizard.”

“No, I’m not sorry.”

Yerine shook her head and replied.

“When I take a regular course and get my full powers, I can automatically become an emperor’s palace wizard if I become Trump.”

The eyes of Yerine, who said so, had a clear light.

Especially her left eye seemed to burn brightly like her flame magic.

“But if I take the position now, people will say I’ve got a job that’s definitely not up to my skill. I don’t like that.”

It was Cassius who was excited to hear what Iker had asked for from Yerine earlier, but he also knew that Yerine would have rejected the proposal.

On top of that, even the reason for the refusal did not deviate from what he was expected.

In her constantness, Cassius smiled secretly.

“First of all, I want to be the right person for the seat.”

“As expected of you.”

“Is that so?”

Seeing Yerine’s smiling face, Cassius seemed to melt his heart away, which had been frozen with tension all the time.

“Oh, I’m sorry. You’ve been holding on too long.”

Then he quickly let Yerine go.

“I’m sorry, it must be stuffy.”

It was only then that Yerine realized that Cassius had closed her hand the whole time she spoke, and suddenly turned red.

“Oh, no, that’s not… Well. It’s warm.…”

And he looked at breaking her face with her hands as if it were hot for no reason.

‘Cute.’

Sometimes, she was cool to do magic with a serious look, but sometimes she was cute when she’s being so shy.

That seemed to him that Yerine was being honest about everything at every moment.

And Cassius always smiled around his mouth when he saw Yerine like that.

It was still the case.

The only difference is that the heart melts and at the same time the pain that pokes came with it.

It feels so painful to think that Iker would have taken away such a precious being from him.

“But why would he care about me? I’m not sure why he was so interested in me as soon as he saw me like that.”

Yerine wiggled her fingers and talked.

“Eum…….”

Cassius deliberately equivocated and avoided answering.

Frankly speaking, he knew to some extent the answer to Yerine’s question.

As soon as his brother, who was particularly interested in “unique things” saw Yerine, he knew he would like it.

‘Should I tell her now?’

Cassius, looking down at the floor, thought to himself.

“There’s one corner that I’m expecting, but I’m not sure.”

When Yerine spoke in a calm voice with her fingers around her mouth, Cassius was slightly surprised but tried to pretend otherwise.

“Really?”

“Isn’t it because of the magic?”

Although he couldn’t make it obvious, Cassius was inwardly impressed.

‘I didn’t know she’d hit me like that.’

But not knowing the thoughts of Cassius, Yerine continued to speak in an unobtrusive voice.

“That’s the only thing that’s unusual enough to draw such an enthusiastic response.”

Yerine looked up at Cassius and said.

“Cassius told me about it before. I have a lot of mana, and the regenerate speed of mana is unusual.”

“I did. I do think that your mana power is one of the reasons.”

Cassius, who was sighing, looked back at Yerine and answered back.

“But that’s not all.”

At the quiet voice of his voice, Yerine opened her eyes and asked, surprisedly.

“What do you mean, that’s not all? Is there anything you can say?”

If he had known this would happen, he should have told her earlier.

He always hesitated because he thought it was right to not give information that was not clear, but now Cassius regrets having such worries.

“Uh. I’m not sure, so I was originally going to investigate and let you know.”

“An investigation? Is there anything else you didn’t tell me about my mana?”

Yerine exclaimed in astonishment.

She was surprised when he said that the regenerate speed and amount of mana far exceeded the general ordinary people, but she was told that there was something more, so, of course, she would have reacted like that.

“Sorry……but I’ve never seen anything like this before.”

“No, what the hell is my magic like?”

“Hey, Yerine, take it easy for now.”

After calming the excited Yerine, Cassius was only able to reopen his mouth after putting on anti-ruling magic.

“You really have to tell me everything this time. Don’t tell me little by little like peeling an onion.”

When Yerine lifted her index finger and said, Cassius, shook his head as if nothing had happened.

“This is the last time. There’s nothing more to talk about.”

“Really?”

“Really, I promise.”

Responding to Yerine’s urging, Cassius swept one of his hair with his hand.

To be honest with you, I understood why Iker responded like that from the same Imperial standpoint.

Because Cassius himself, by chance, immediately noticed that no one in the Empire would have the same mana as her.

As such, her mana was both noticeable and rare.

“There’s colour in mana.”

“Colors? They’re all different?”

“Not all different.”

That’s how Cassius unfolded his two fingers.

“The imperial people say that mana is usually divided into two colours. Generally, people’s magic is all white. Plain, no distinction of nobility, all the same white.”

“Then what colour is the other one?”

To Yerine’s question, Cassius folded his unfolded finger again and answered with a fist.

“It’s golden. People with imperial blood have golden mana.”

“Are you saying that only the royal family has golden mana?”

“Yes.”

Yerine, who nodded still, opened her eyes thinly and opened her mouth, looking at Cassius.

“Well, is my magic golden, too?”

She could have thought so.

And there was a possibility that Iker was interested in the golden mana of Yerine.

But that wasn’t the answer.

“No.”

“Yes?”

Surprised by Cassius’ answer, Yerine soon frowned and added.

“Well… what colour is it?”

Looking down at her, Cassius replied in a low subdued voice.

“Red.”

Before she knew it, her eyes were on the bright red eyes.

“It’s the same colour as your left eye.”

At the words, Yerine raised her left hand and put it around her eyes.

As soon as the tip of her thin finger touched her eyelid, slowly lowering her hand, she spoke with her eyes fixed below.

“That’s what I’m saying.”

“Yes. Your mana, I think, is the kind of mana that doesn’t exist in the Empire.”

“No, but I didn’t know it would be that bad.”

Yerine sighed heavily, covering her left eye with her hand.

“What if I’m being taken away as an experimenter?”

Yerine would have said it without much meaning, but Cassius, who heard it, seemed to have a throbbing heart.

His older brother, who was already possessive, had already seen Yerine.

Iker’s creepy smile, which he had seen and said he liked her, haunted his head.

“Cassius?”

With a sweet voice calling his name, he clenched his fist.

“That’s never gonna happen.”

Under the dim fairy light, his golden eyes gleamed sharply.

“I will stop. No matter what, I will stop it. ”

He looked into her pair of eyes.

Standing in front of his golden eyes, and his brilliant to stay straight, respectively, the precious purple eyes and a red light that is clean and transparent.

At that moment, Cassius realized why he brought Yerine here as soon as they escaped from Iker.

“Cassius … ”

It was the moment to hold her hand again. Cassius, gently holding her white hand, silently lowered his posture and bent one knee.

“Now, wait a minute, Cassius?”

Yerine’s surprised voice was heard, but she did not shake Cassius’ hand.

While feeling pathetic about his reassured self, Cassius raised his head and looked at her and talked.

“If you don’t like it, tell me.”

“Yes?”

Fortunately, the refusal never to return.

Yerine still held his hand and seemed to know what to do.

Thinking it was time, Cassius slowly bowed his head toward Yerine’s hand.

Just before his lips touched her skin, he closed his eyes, and the gentle fragrance of flowers tickled his nose.

It was a familiar scent that he could smell whenever he approached Yerine.

‘Even if it’s just such a kid’s joke, if only I could protect you~’

Finally, his hot lips touched the back of her hand.

“Cassius….”

At that moment he wished and wished again.

May God grant his wish.
