When Arin was training Lara, Seraphina was sitting on her study table reviewing Silvane's investigation reports. She suddenly felt a faint mana fluctuation in her engagement ring. So she activated her room's secret window.
She looked out her window toward the training field and whispered. "Arin… what are you hiding from me?"
She held her engagement ring feeling a twisted emotion between her love and fear of losing Arin. She recalled how close Lara was to Arin in the infirmary before.
"Arin, please be careful." She smiled then sat on her chair to read those reports again. "If you need me, I am always here for you."
The candle beside her flickered crimson for a moment hinting that even her mana was beginning to resonate with Arin's influence unconsciously.
Arin sat back in the secret yard, beside the sleeping Lara. Looking at the crack in the night sky flickers faintly red.
