They didn't really do anything. Even once upon a time, Naria would jokingly touch him and Is's heads...... She was a year older than them, and as an older sister she deserved that privilege.

However, a ghost in his heart was suddenly caught, and Ed could no longer act as if nothing had happened. When Allen's calm gaze swept lightly, his legs were very weak, his face turned pale, and the cold sweat on his forehead instantly broke out.

Naria, who was also frightened, glared at him angrily, and in the midst of her sudden shame, she wanted to laugh a little.

Alan slowly moved into the room. God knows how he could walk so quietly with a prosthetic leg in tow, so they didn't notice it at all...... No, his footsteps were indeed heavier than normal when they weren't necessary—like now.

Ed's heart was curled up in his chest like a frightened chick, and a thousand senseless screams of himself rang in his head—he knew, he knew, he knew!......

Allan?? Kavo, knowing he's going to steal his most precious daughter.

...... But isn't it sooner or later?

The tension that made my brain freeze was actually relaxed a little because of this. Realizing that he would die sooner or later, Ed puffed out his chest and looked resolute.

"I—I'll love her forever!" he said.

Naria, who was about to find a casual reason to perfunctory, was choked and almost burped - the gods are above, which eye is blind for her to look at such a stupid and stupid imp who jumps in panic like a grasshopper?!

And Allen narrowed his eyes.

The sun fell from behind him, making his face fall into the shadows. His expressionless squinting looked like a dragon, a real dragon, cold, dangerous...... And not the kind of guy who only scares people by making a false appearance.

He really looked like he could slap Ed into mud with one palm without hesitation.

"I will honor her, cherish her, and in my lifetime, never fail until death separates us—not even death can separate us. ”

Every syllable spoken was like a chisel between the rocks with all his might, inscribed on the metal, stiff at first, then solemn, word for word, never to be turned.

Little by little, they struck into Naria's heart. The initial embarrassment gradually turned into some indescribable warmth and fullness, and the heart swelled like a seed about to crack, and in it there were many soft, wonderful ...... Secrets she hadn't really known before.

The girl looked at Ed's side face in a daze. The face, which looked younger than its actual age, had a thin layer of fluff, especially in the sun, and it was not very reliable no matter how you looked at it, and even the beard grew thin......

- It doesn't matter. She thought. I'm just reliable enough...... I'm a year older than him.

Her pale face grew red. And she didn't realize it until she touched her father's complicated eyes.

She was stunned, almost instinctively glaring back...... I couldn't help but look forward to it softly.

"I swear ......"

Ed clasped his hands together as if he were standing before the gods, and with a devotion he had never felt before, continued his vow that he could almost scald Naria—sweet, but also a little awkward.

Naria silently reached out and covered his mouth.

“...... Mmmm

"Forget it after death. Alan spoke, his tone flat: "I can't care so much...... You can't care so much. ”

Ed's eyes widened.

He always felt that Allen's words were not finished, and he guessed that there would probably be some meaningful threat that he would never forget, like the old man whispered in his ear after that failed adventure a few years ago...... But Eren looked at him deeply, and just staggered away.

The room was silent, so quiet that Ed could hear Naria's heartbeat clearly. The skin of her palms was not soft, a thin layer of calluses against his lips, warm and dry.

Ed blushed gradually. It wasn't until then that he realized what he had said. Of course, he didn't regret it, and every word he said came from the bottom of his heart. It's just that, it's just ...... This doesn't seem like the right time.

He is often too sluggish when he needs to be nervous, and panicked when he needs to be calm. Such an immature man will definitely be disliked by Allen, right?

He stole a glance at Naria, but she didn't realize it. She stood stunned for a moment, then suddenly let go of her hand and chased after her.

Ed, who had been thrown down, let out a sigh and slowly crouched down.

??

The girl soon caught up with her father.

Eren walked extremely slowly, and every step seemed to be extremely difficult. His right leg, barely recognizable as a prosthetic leg, dragged lifelessly on the ground, causing Naria's heart to ache.

Even though she knew that the pitiful appearance of the difficult steps was somewhat pretended, she still felt uncomfortable—she once felt that her father, who was as tall as a mountain and as solid as a rock, was really old.

She followed him with her head down, and when he didn't speak, she didn't speak.

“...... So," Alan finally stopped and looked back at her, "have you already decided?"

Naria nodded, light and fast, a little shy, but without the slightest hesitation...... So determined that even she herself was stunned for a moment.

Alan slowly sat down on the stone railing at the edge of the hallway, silent for a long time, until Naria began to panic.

"I have regretted more than once that I brought Isis home. "Of course I love him, but I have to admit, Naria, I love you more...... And I can't help but think that if I hadn't brought him to you, maybe you would have opened a bakery in a quiet town, married an ordinary, good man, and lived a fragrant, warm and peaceful life, as you had hoped for. Instead of living like a girl like now...... I also looked at a silly boy with an uncertain future. ”

Nalya endured, but couldn't—she never took.

"What's the matter with Is!" she said, "even if I don't think of him as my own brother...... Even if I never met Ed, if the world was about to end, would you do nothing and stay with me in a fragrant house and wait to die? If you wouldn't, wouldn't I? Of course it's good to live a warm and peaceful life...... You have to have 'peace' before you can live in peace!Instead of blaming Is, you should blame yourself—didn't you stay obediently in a country in Anktanen as a blacksmith who didn't know anything and didn't care about anything?"
