One time. Two clicks.

The carving tools move deftly on the small wooden box, and with the fine pieces of wood, the beautiful flowers gradually take shape, and there are a few petals scattered around it, adding a touch of agility to the wooden box.

Kylde leaned against the head of the bed, intently carving the small wooden box in his hand, almost a little longer than a knuckle.

The petite maiden curled up beside him, her long black hair scattered irregularly on the bed, while she herself was still in a deep sleep.

The occasional murmur that came out of her mouth made the corners of Kyeld's mouth rise up, and he reached out and gently rubbed the girl's head before continuing his work.

He didn't have any plans to go out today, so he didn't plan to wake Biankom up. Yesterday he tried to resonate with the girl's soul according to the book, and although the progress was not too great, it was smooth in terms of the first action.

According to the book, he only needs to find a way to mobilize the self-healing power in Bianko's soul and activate its vitality with a faint stimulation. This process requires him to concentrate, otherwise in this situation where Bianko cannot cooperate, it is very likely to hurt Bianko's soul.

Still, Bianco, as if she knew what was at stake, sat there obediently and let him guide her, without making any mistakes—of course, perhaps because she was too embarrassed to react otherwise.

Kyild remembered the girl's reaction yesterday, and he couldn't help but laugh.

He was amazed by the girl's bold statement that she didn't want him to be with anyone else, but he was too busy coaxing her and stopping her from crying, so he didn't pay much attention to it. As Bianko began to let away her tears, she realized what she had done, and she was so ashamed that she nearly suffocated herself under the covers.

The wooden box in his hand was gradually approaching the state of completion, and Kyerde's thoughts were inadvertently diverging. The memories of yesterday naturally reminded him of his overly tolerant attitude towards girls, which made him think subconsciously.

If someone else had said to him something similar to what he was not allowed to be with, he would have been unpleasant, no doubt. For him, who has rarely had freedom since he was a child, the orders that restrict him do not give him pleasure. Even parents are no exception, but if they are parents, they will be more resistant.

Although his parents were not responsible for his restrictive life as a child, they were the ones who took care of him, which made the immature child angry, and it is difficult for him to get rid of this influence even now after he understands the situation.

In the past, his only exception was Giado. Or rather, it was the exception he once thought.

He liked her at the time, so he thought he should accept whatever the person he liked wanted to do, even if it was against his will. Thinking about it now, the failure and absurdity of the relationship at that time had been foreshadowed in his heart, but he chose to turn a blind eye.

Because his reason knows that the other party does not respond to a considerable degree of affection as he thinks, he will feel uncomfortable and disgusted with her more and more excessive demands, but he is paranoid that he just commits a "noble temper" as Ji Aduo said, and then forces himself to put aside his self-esteem and ideas to accept Ji Aduo unconditionally.

Kylde sighed silently, then shook his head.

But Biancom is different.

From the very beginning, the girl was trying to show kindness to him, giving him all the effort she had made to improve the relationship, simply because he had brought her out into the outside world. Strictly speaking, the person who really brought her outside was the Demon King, but it didn't make sense like he was angry with his parents - because it was this person in front of him, so it was this person who took the cause and effect.

He had recklessly concluded that the so-called love at first sight was easy to confuse himself because of his failed relationship with Giadon, and that it was not true love, but Walkan's momentary decision to Ranoda, which has lasted until now, overturned his irresponsible conclusion, and the development of Letty and Rosette also proved that a long time together can create a small but stable relationship like a stream.

Does he like Bianco?

He still doesn't know.

He was still as aware of the fact that he could not let the girl leave him, as he had thought the other day. The idea should have been to keep her by his side, not to allow her to limit or even restrict his freedom.

So is it the influence that Organi is talking about? Ogani said he would be unusually tolerant of her. But that didn't make sense, and when he realized this, he would subconsciously start to suppress the effects of soul resonance, so he wouldn't let himself be overly tolerant of Biankom because of resonance.

Kryder stopped his tool and gently blew the sawdust on the surface, the delicate pattern was fully revealed, and the budding flowers exuded a vigorous energy of anticipation, just like Bianco's.

Yes, just like that silly girl.

Norther has always been considered a flower that represents "purity", and it also has the meaning of "tenacity". Norther is completely different from Valerno, which Giado likes is poisonous, and its rhizome also has spikes, but its flower language is "weak".

He didn't want to think about why the woman liked the flower that represented the fragility, it had nothing to do with him anymore. Norther is a good fit for Bianco, pure, clean and strong. Although the girl has not shown her own strength, he believes that she has this quality, and a simple soul will always be extraordinarily tough.

But that's not a reason for him to accept her restraints.

Kyild bent down to look at Bianko, and gently pulled the jade ring from her neck. The girl gave him a laborious look, then closed her eyelids again in a daze. He untied the rope from the jade ring and tied it to the box, carefully inserting the jade ring into the box.

In order to prevent the jade ring from shattering, he deliberately padded the inside of the box with soft flannel, and left just enough space to fit the jade ring. Considering the small size of the box, it was not an easy project, but he did it anyway. He snapped the box to shut, and shoved it back to the girl's side.

In fact, the complete jade ring no longer seemed to need a box to hold it, but he still wanted to put the box made for Bianko, which belonged only to her, to her side, in a place that was extremely close to her heart.

Kyild's hand did not retract, he propped his other elbow beside Bianco, his hand gently caressing the girl's delicate cheek, which made her snort as if she were aware of it, and tilted her face to the side to avoid his touch.

But he chased and poked her skin like he had found a favorite toy, and the girl, who was still closed, hid a few times and then couldn't bear to beat his hand, but it was still caught by Kyild's own hand.

The delicate hand had a small wound left in the garden some time ago, and maybe they would slowly disappear after a while, but it was still very glaring at this moment.

Kyild's eyes were fixed on the wounds, and his eyes deepened. And the girl who had been harassed finally reluctantly opened her eyes and yawned and looked at the people around her.

The dark eyes, which complained of being disturbed by her sleep, faintly shone with water, making her as cute as a little animal.

Kyild turned his gaze to her, a pair of dark gray eyes staring straight at her, but his mind remembered what he had just been thinking about.

Does he like her?

And why can't he like her?

The facts proved to him that she was pure, and even with a face similar to that woman, Biancolt was still Bianko, not another Giado.

No matter how much he hurt her, she never relied on the love of her elders to force him to give any compensation. When he was troubled, she would always be by his side and find a way to make him happy.

She wouldn't let his dedication go to waste, and she wouldn't use it like that woman and then mock it indifferently. He was sure that the maiden would only cherish everything he gave her.

Her soul has always been able to relax him.

Aren't these benefits enough for him to put his mind at ease and like her?

Seems to be enough.

Kyild came back to his senses, and looked at the face in front of him, which was bloodied by his long gaze, and the urge that surged in his heart seemed to be so difficult to suppress for the first time, and he was not so serious about restraining himself, so he kissed the girl lightly on the forehead.

He knew that his current feelings were very selfish, and he only wanted to take all the good that the girl had for him, and refused to think about what he should give. It won't work, he knows. Once she begins to understand what "feelings" are, she notices the asymmetry between them, and what does she think about it?

At least, it won't be euphoria.

The girl in front of her seemed to be greatly frightened by his actions, and did not dare to move, and after a few seconds, she quickly shrank herself into the quilt, and clung to the quilt, refusing to be dug out by him.

Her childish behavior made his negative thoughts dissipate a little, and he slapped the bulging quilt bag amusedly, and stopped teasing her, presumably in a moment she would crawl out on her own because of the difficulty of breathing.

Kylde quietly looked at the wriggling little "mountain bag", and the smile on his face faded after a brief moment of pleasure.

“…… I'm sorry. ”

He said softly.

Bianco, who didn't care about other people's opinions like Giardor did, knew that the maid in the house had said about the girl, and he knew what kind of effect those words had on her, but he didn't interfere.

If he forced Biancole to bring her into the Nobil family, it would be tantamount to pushing her into the aristocratic society, she would accept everyone's fingers, and she might cry behind her back because of the ridicule of others, but he might not be able to protect her.

But he still couldn't let her out of his life, and even stingy to keep her by giving his sincerity, just wanting to take advantage of her dependence on him and give some innocuous sweetness to make her follow him willingly.

He knew how much his actions would hurt her in the end, but he was still so selfish that he refused to take that step because of the past.

…… But he is not completely unchanged, he is trying to be good to her, trying to get rid of the shadow of the past, allowing himself to accept her calmly and accept his love for her.

The little blushing girl poking her head out of the bed took a big breath of air, and Kyelder rubbed her head gently.

Sorry to wait.

He'll have time to change.
