"I knew my brother's ability wasn't anything to be ashamed of, but I didn't expect him to make it this far."

It was already the day of the semi-finals for the Imperial Knights tournament.

Elle chose the seats with the best view in the competition hall, she shrugged her shoulders with a proud expression. Leticia did not look well at all, as if something was bothering her.

Ian noticed immediately and carefully asked Leticia.

"Sister, are you all right?"

"Huh? Oh, sure. I'm fine."

He could see her pale hands shaking a little. Unlike her words, she seemed quite nervous.

"Don't worry too much, because everything will be fine."

Elle said and held tightly onto Leticia's hand. Ian, who was sitting on the other side of her, took hold of her other hand, and the tremors subsided little by little.

"I hope he doesn't overdue it."

Leticia was fine with Enoch losing his match, as long as he wasn't hurt.

As she took deep breaths and tried to calm herself, a cheer spread through the crowd.

Her mouth dried up as the match began.

˜It's going to be okay, it's going to be okay.'

Enoch was very skilled. Leticia knew this quite well and he'd promised her that he wouldn't get hurt, so she didn't have to be so nervous.

Why am I so worried?

Leticia gasped as soon as she looked at Enoch, and tried to pull herself together by saying that it will be okay.

"....!"

A sword grazed Enoch's forearm as he tried to avoid the weapon. Leticia's heart sank as soon as she saw this and she frowned slightly.

"Sister, he'll be fine."

Elle tried to reassure Leticia as soon as she saw her face pale, but Leticia's gaze never turned away from Enoch's form.

Fortunately the fight ended with neither combatant being injured again, and Enoch was able to move on to the finals. Elle and Ian both clapped and rejoiced, but Leticia quickly ran to see Enoch in the infirmary.

As soon as she entered, she saw Enoch sitting on a chair having his wound dressed. As soon as she saw the red blood on his white shirt, she felt emotional.

"How is your injury? Does it hurt?"

"It's okay, it's just a minor cut."

He showed his forearm like it was nothing, but Enoch soon closed his mouth. It was because his heart sank at how coldly she was looking at him.

"I'll be careful from now on, I won't get hurt."

As soon as he said that excuse, her white hands wrapped around his cheeks.

Surprised by the sudden touch, Enoch's mouth dried up as her blue eyes quietly looked down at him. Then Leticia pinched Enoch's cheeks.

When he looked up in surprise, he met Leticia's frowning face, her eyes full of disapproval.

"You promised you wouldn't get hurt."

"Ah shorry, Ah wont."

I'm sorry, I won't.

His pinched cheeks may hurt a lot, but Enoch looked sincerely sorry.

The corners of his mouth slightly raised, as if it felt good that Leticia was worried about him.

˜You're really mean.'

Thanks to his smile, she couldn't hate him to her heart's content. So she pulled harder on his cheeks.

"Ow! My cheeks ache now."

"I'm pinching you because you got hurt. If you get injured again..."

Leticia leaned down and put her lips close to Enoch's ear. His shoulders trembled as he felt her breath on his cheek.

However his face stiffened at the words she whispered to him.

"Oh, that's a bit of a problem."

"Just don't get hurt."

"That's a bit..."

As soon as he thought about the consequences of being hurt again, he frowned.

Leticia smiled slightly as she watched Enoch worry with a serious look on his face.

"Then what do I get if I don't get injured?"

Once again, Enoch's body tensed when he felt her breath against his ear, but there was no way he could let her realize how she affected him. Leticia smiled brightly, but this time she straightened without grabbing his cheeks again.

Enoch stared blankly as she walked away, then breathed out slowly.

˜It still tickles.'

The feeling of her soft breath on his red ear, Enoch recalled what Leticia had whispered to him.

[If you get hurt, I won't let you get away with it, but I'll adore you even more if you don't get hurt.]

He almost asked how much more she'd adore him, but he didn't dare ask. He was worried he wouldn't be able to concentrate on the match if he heard.

"Saying you'll hold or release a person's heart while wearing such an innocent face..."

She was really impertinent, but still adorable. Leticia lingered in his head for a long time after she left.

˜Why did I say that I'd adore him more?'

Leticia was on her way back to the stands where Elle and Ian were. She stopped walking for a while, and covered her face with her hands.

She didn't care at the time, but she felt incredibly shy after the fact.

˜If you get hurt, I won't let you get away with it.'

Leticia stopped walking again.

"...."

The finalists for the tournament were Enoch and Levion.

But she hadn't expected to bump into Levion in front of the infirmary, so Leticia tried to pass by him as if she hadn't seen him.

"Are you serious?"

Leticia slowly turned around at the sound of the voice she heard from a few paces away.

"What?"

"Are you serious about him?"

She could tell without asking who Levion was talking about.

"Yes, I'm serious."

At first, she thought he was a friendly person, unlike his cold impression. When they became closer, she found him to be sincere and responsible.

Now she had a great and unshakeable desire to move forward.

By his side.

"Does he feel the same way as you?"

"I don't think that's any of your business."

She didn't want to tell him that she knew Enoch's sincerity better than anyone else.

Levion frowned at what she said, then changed the subject.

"I don't think I've ever seen that before."
