"If you promise to let us go, I'll give you the Arcana!" Ciara declared in desperation.
So far, she had sensed the difference between her strength and that of the man before her.
They were akin to night and day.
"A wise choice indee—"
"NO WAY!" A loud voice interrupted the deal between the two.
It came from Jerry.
"No way! I'll never agree to this!" Jerry yelled, grabbing Ciara by her shoulders.
"We're never giving you the Arcana." His firm declaration shook the entire area.
Conviction was cemented on his face, and the boy's fiercely ignited passion shone from his eyes.
"Ciara… you don't really plan on agreeing with him, right? RIGHT?!"
The girl whose shoulder was being held felt a mix of emotions.
First, she felt her love for Jerry increase. His declaration and naïve confidence added a lot to his charm.
Second, she felt her heart race insanely. The way he gripped her shoulder, and the aggressive tone he was using… it made Ciara very excited.
Thirdly, she felt guilty. Guilty that she had indeed wanted to give in to the enemy due to the sheer difference in their abilities.
'But… what's to say Legris Damien won't kill us after he gets what he wants?" Her thoughts echoed.
In the end, wouldn't it be foolish to hand over what they had worked so hard for when there wasn't a guarantee of survival.
"O-of course, I didn't plan on giving him. Don't you trust me, Jerry? Haha…"
"I knew it! Haha!"
Both teenagers laughed, much to the villain's chagrin. He looked at the two and sighed while shaking his head.
"You guys, really… oh well, I have been nice enough."
Dark energy began rising from Legris as his body became shrouded in subtle darkness.
'Ah, this is bad. I should have just taken the deal…' She gulped slightly.
The usual Ciara Epilson was very confident. Since she was extremely powerful, almost anyone she fought was fodder.
Even against stronger enemies like Gawain, during training, it hadn't been as though there was anything at stake.
But now… being confronted with an actual evil, she felt exposed to new emotions that made her feel dazed.
"Don't worry, Ciara. I'll protect you!" Jerry stood in front of the girl as the darkness around Legris swelled.
"W-what—?!"
The boy turned back and smiled at her, giving her a thumbs up. He flashed a lovely smile that rendered the poor girl instantly smitten.
"Lancelot gave me a little something… and I'll use that power to protect you, Ciara." He smiled.
Power suddenly began emerging from Jerry, causing Ciara's eyes to widen in surprise. She had never sensed this type of energy before—especially from someone like Jerry.
It felt so similar… to the power that had been around Lancelot and the area that surrounded her back when they'd met the Apostle of Aether. This power was….
