"I didn't understand,why Celes told me all of these things..to begin with why she helped me so much.."(Ezax)

Ezax said that as he staring on the direction where Celes fly too,he then thinking.....

"Regardless of that I would thank her later,Right now I should think a way to ensure Hikari safety.."(Ezax)

He then leave this place and went back to his own room,While lying on his bed,Ezax thinking about tonight...tonight there was a party for princess and princess treatment. He must participate in this party and it was absoluteIt was cut some rotten animal and approach agreeable king.But it must be After all there human must be united...as long they could stay united for a whole year it was enough.

As he though this hikari entered his room,Ezax already get used about this as it was useless lock the door from her,he then rise his head and then look toward at hikari..Hikari furrowed her eyebrows for a moment and asked..

"Ah,did I wake you up?"(Hikari)

"No,I was awake ,I just thinking about tonight."(Ezax)

"Tonight?Were you nervous?"(Hikari)

"Of course not,I just got information that there was something happened tonight..and It would threatened your life.."(Ezax)

"o_o ,Celes information was fast...never expect for you to get it earlier than me."(Hikari)

"Sight,then I believe you come here for this reason?(Ezax)

"Of course not,I just worried if you were injured by her or something.Still,May I sit beside you?"(Hikari)

"Feel free."(Ezax)

Hikari then sit beside him and hold Ezax hands.She then said..

"Ezax,What were you worried about ,Could you tell me?"(Hikari)

"I just didn't know what I should do?If Celes come to meet me to tell me this ,then it means the one that aiming at your life was extremely dangerous..to be honest if possible I wouldn't participate in the party and-"(Ezax)

"That won't do!!!I already said I hate being protected as princess!!!"(Hikari)

"But hikari-"(Ezax)

"Ezax,that was enough treat me as princess!!!I am your future wife!!Your lover!!!I would never let you stand alone!!!!!"(Hikari)

"HIKARI!!!!QUIT PLAYING AROUND!!!"(Ezax)

Smack!!!Ezax was punched by hikari,it took by him by surprise but then he pushed to the bed with Hikari on top of him..

"Ezax....do I really look that ugly to you?"(Hikari)

Seeing Hikari serious look,Ezax stop from getting angry with her.Depending on his choice it could be fatal to their relationship...and It wasn't something Ezax wish to do.After all his heart wasn't made by stone and he knows how much hikari cared for her,to be honest the reason why he falls in love with her because how how positive was her. SHe always stay positive and it helped many times for him to made decision..That's why ezax said..

"No,you were beautiful."(Ezax)

"I am very strong right?"(Hikari)

Ezax also thought for a moment,regarding her power he knows it very well..that's why he replied honestly..

"Yes,I know that.."(Ezax)

Her eyes then become teary ,Ezax then tried to wipe her tear,but it was refused by Hikari..Seeing this Ezax was truly worried.

"Then why you kept pushing me away?Why?"(Hikari)

"..Hikari..I..."(Ezax)

"I know you were afraid of me getting hurt !!!!But !!!But!!Did you know how much painful was it to see you everyday wounded?It was very painful !!!!Just how much suffer you must let me go throught Ezax?"(Hikari)

Hearing that Ezax was silenced...to be honest he didn't know how much pain that she felt.But he only hugged her tightly and then he said..

"Sorry ,I was wrong.."(Ezax)

"..sob*sob.."(Hikari)

Only now he realized,he was an Idiot.now that he thought about it..He realized he never counted dragon ascension ,to become dragoon ...his combat would be reached new height...yet he never try to use it unless it was forced. He knows himself he was a coward..a coward who always took the safest path even thought he knows it wasn't the best path..Right now he made decision,A decision to change himself. Only now after a 10 years Ezax regains his long lost confidence and finally back to his 'real' self. That's right it was this girl who changed him..the one who undo the knot in his heart.

"Hikari ,I love you."(Ezax)

"Eh?"(Hikari)

Hikari lips immediately sealed by him and then once their lips separated,Hikari face was really red. But his next action baffled her.. as he already stand up and prepared himself by making some potion..

"Ezax...can I ask you something?"(Hikari)

"Sure?"(Ezax)

"Isn't it the step where enjoy each other eating forbidden fruit?"(Hikari)

"Heh?Really?I was always 'dense' right?beside it was not fun if I let you eat it just like that."(Ezax)

Hear that hikari then begin throw pillow to Ezax..and kept screaming..

"STUPID!!!IDIOT!!!!PLAYBOY!!!"(HIkari)

"Hm~~~I didn't hear anything"(Ezax)

To be honest Ezax want to do it with her as he was normal man..but he kept aside as he knows it wasn't the timeRight now having child in middle of war was source of great trouble..It was better for him to kept being 'dense' for sometime . Beside no one would realized anyway that he was kept pretending 'dense' as usual.

On other hand the dragon within his heart was laughing their ass off. And at the same time Celes who watch it from far away was secretly giving him thumbs up.

"Serve her right!!!!!"(Celes)

At this moment fafnir was on his way back to the castle and then noticed..

"Damn..THere was dragoon aiming at his life?Kukuku...COme then!!!This son would show him his power that he got from the greatest paladin in the world!!!"(Fafnir)
