A strong wind blew just as Uncle Will said that line, and I couldn’t help but squint.

“Uncle Will,” I said, and by the time I opened my eyes he was not there.

He was right in front of me a moment ago, and then he was gone. At that moment, I realized that he was a hallucination.

That’s right… He was so real, but this was only Kushana’s training ground.

I wondered if I had successfully defeated the enemy.

“I wouldn’t say I beat him, right?”

I chuckled as I muttered that.

Surely, I was no match for Uncle Will. No one could match the height of that person.

If it were against Uncle Will, I would gladly admit defeat.

That was when I thought so. I felt a tingle in my left eye, which should not be there.

…I know this sounds like a chuuni situation, but I really felt a discomfort in my left eye.

“What is this?”

I held my left eye with one hand while enduring the slight pain for a while.

…Uncle Will is dying? Was that really the end?

I gently removed my hand from my left eye. I could clearly see the view to my left. For the first time in a long time, I could see clearly.

“Uncle Will, he’s gone…”

The moment I realized this, I burst into tears as I crouched in the flower garden. I sobbed, and my cries were the only sound in the place. I could not stop the tears from overflowing.

Uncle Will, Uncle Will, Uncle Will….

I whispered the name of the man I loved so much over and over in my heart.

I had never thought that he would leave this world. I thought we would be together forever.

I felt like my heart was being torn to shreds. This was the first time I had lost someone I cared about since I came here.

Maybe somewhere along the way I had been overconfident, I thought. I was certain that I could save anyone.

I would never be able to feel Uncle Will’s kindness again. I would never again feel his big, craggy hands patting my head, or his gentle voice calling my name, and I would never again have a place where I could run to for advice if something happened to me.

For me, Uncle Will was the one place where I belonged.

It was the only place where I could ask for help without thinking, even though I have always been a bad girl.

I held my chest with one hand. How could I get rid of this pain in my chest?

I had no choice but to accept this pain, which no magic could do anything about.

I was so frustrated that I couldn’t be with Uncle Will right now. I wanted to hug him for the last time. I couldn’t thank Uncle Will enough for everything he had done for me.

It was unfair that he passed away without being able to express even a single word of gratitude to him… I also had more things I wanted to say to him.

I felt the faint magic of Uncle Will in my left eye. I had never felt such a gentle and warm magic power.

I had never thought that Uncle Will, who did not appear in the Otome Game, would be the most important person in this world to me.

I would never forget Will Seeker for the rest of my life.

“Ah, I’m so glad I met him.”

I looked up and uttered a shaky voice. Wiping away the tears that flowed unceasingly, I stared at the sky.

Thank you for giving me so much love.
