"Today's lecture was an essential and burdensome one,
So I shall free you a few minutes prior to your schedule so you can calm your occupied mind."
Therian spoke in a calm voice.
"Thank you, Instructor Therian."
Kael nodded, not refusing the Marshal's favor.
Therian nodded back as he stood up.
"Be well, Hero Kael."
"Yes, you too, Marshal."
Kael answered respectfully, and the Marshal turned around, leaving the training hall 30 minutes early.
The moment he left, Kael sat on the chair and closed his eyes. Instantly, his focus shifted to the Sanctuary, where Igni was sleeping inside the Molten Lava, a perfect environment for him.
"Kyu~"
The moment Igni sensed his presence, he opened his eyes and called out, his eyes shining with pure and innocent joy.
And that one voice was enough to put a smile on Kael's face.
He didn't know why or how it happened, but within a week, Igni seemed to have become his entire life.
