"You don't have to force yourself."

"What?"

I said that to Silica who became surprise. She didn't expect my answer as she held on to me.

"No Crixus, i really love you."

She kept saying that as she gripped my hand. I glared at her who became teary as shivered.

"You don't have to lie, i always know that you love my brother. Even if i hurt myself, i wanted you to be happy."

I smiled at her who became shocked. I walk away from her as i smiled.

"I alreay give up on you. Please don't have me suffer anymore."

Even though i smiled, she saw me cried as i walked away from her...

"I know your there."

"..."

As i said that, May came out as i was surprise. I didn't expect her to hear that. She nervously look down as i smiled.

"I don't hate you."

As she look at me smiling, she became red as she confess.

"I like you."

As she said that, i replied as well.

"I like you as well."

I smiled at her who became happy. I still continued...

"Sir, could i borrow your sword?"

"Alright miss and well help you out as well. Boys! We got some monster to hunt."

May was given a sword as the people pulled out their weapons as well. Why? Is there a monster inside the town? While i was thinking...

"Crixus, you should run."

"Why?"

Before she could respond...

*swish*

"Woah, hey what the-"

"Uuuuu..."

May began to get teary as the men charge at me.

"Hey, what the hell are you doing?"

"Were hunting a new monster. A dense monster."

"Who's that?"

As they kept attacking me, i tilted my head as i was confused. The men pointed at me as they glared at me.

"IDIOT!!!!!!"

May swing the sword at me as i fell unconscious...
