Sometime in the past, around a thousand years ago, on a desolate continent. Freya standing on the mountain of corpses. The blood stains on her face, scars, and paleness due to exhaustion are apparent.

Kneeling on one knee while holding her sword, with her purple eyes she looks up in the sky, her tattered violet Magic Battle robe flutters in the wind.

She sighed heavily, letting her head drop and tears streamed down her face.

She said in a low tone of voice, "If I can't save you in this lifetime, I will do it in my next. My love, why did you choose death over me?"

...........

In Niana's apartment. She is currently sitting while her right leg stretches out, relaxing. Her feet are a bit swollen. Taking her time and waiting for Julien to arrive, she stared outside the window and looked blankly thinking about the past.

30 minutes pass by and Julien arrives already at her apartment. Since Niana can't walk properly, she sends her lock code.

While waiting for the elevator, Julien's heart was beating so loud, he was sweating cold. The nervousness is eating him. He knows that this meeting with her is really different.

He knows that after this meeting, major changes will happen.

*Ding*

The elevator arrives and he hurriedly enters. He presses the 16th-floor button with his left index finger.

He breathes heavily to calm his nerves and also wipes his forehead. At the front of Niana's apartment, he fixes his shirt first and wipes his face again to remove the sweat and oil. "Okay Julien, don't be nervous, it is just Niana. You always eat lunch together and talk in the office."

He swipes up the screen and keyed in the lock combination. There is a beep sound and the lock opens. He enters the apartment.

Being very nervous, he awkwardly entered the apartment and said: " N-N-Niana I'm here!" Then put down the things he bought and remove his shoes.

"Hey, I'm going in." He walks into the small hallway. He noticed that the smell of Niana's apartment smells good.

After a few steps, he already saw the living room and he immediately saw her. She was sitting, her right leg was extended to the table.

Niana saw her and her eyes glittered like she saw the most important thing in the world.

"Julien sorry I wasn't able to accompany you, and here you are going through all these hassles." She feels bad because she is also excited about their "date" and she was quite guilty about what happened.

Julien walked and sat down near her and said "Don't mention it. If not for me asking you to go out, you might not hurt your feet."

"Anyway, let me check first your injury if there is a broken bone or if it needs medical attention," Julien said with a concerned tone and he went near the table and touched Niana's feet.

Niana was shocked that Julien made a move and got close to her. She wasn't able to reply right away!

"Ju-Julien!?" She was startled and said it in a high-pitched voice.

"What? Is this part painful?"

He holds Niana's feet with his left hand and gently touches and gently massage the ankle area using his index and middle finger. Julien is an oriental doctor and he knows a lot about human anatomy.

Julien does his check-up without knowing Niana's reaction. He thinks that she was really in pain.

She said in her mind "He is still the same clueless guy, oblivious to people's feelings."
