 "I don't know him, but I heard he's the realm's creator," she explained. If she doesn't know Vertxander, then why does he act as if he does? Tori's word is trustworthy, but Vertxander is unlikely to tell me those words if they are unimportant. "Vertxander said something to me. He told me to tell you these things. He appeared to be overjoyed to see me again. He advised us to stay cautious and take good care of ourselves, particularly you. He stated that we are probably puzzled at the moment, but I would understand it soon. He said how much he missed me and you. He expressed his desire to see me again soon. He assured you that he was always safe and that he would continue to do what you had told him to do," I stated. Tori rubbed her cheeks and discovered that tears were streaming down her face. She is taken aback when she notices that her palm is wet with tears from her eyes. "Why am I crying?" she asks as she wipes her tears away from her eyes. She was crying for no apparent reason. Her tears appear to be genuine. "Please accept my apologies. Please pardon me for a moment. Why do I keep shedding tears? That's bizarre, "she stated. I think it's true what they say about the mind may forget, but the heart will always remember. She doesn't appear to be lying, instead, she appears to be genuinely baffled as to why she is crying with those statements. Could they have known each other in Tori's previous life? Then Vertxander is undoubtedly aware of Tori's past and why she became a sinner. What's even stranger is that he recognized me. These questions, I believe, will only be answered if I meet that man again. "No, you are not required to apologize. It's all right. You can cry all you want. Do you know who he is? " "I swear I don't know him and have never seen him in person, but hearing those words brought me to tears. They have a nostalgic sound to me. It's as if I've been saying those words my entire life, which I haven't. I have a strong feeling in my heart that those words are extremely important. I don't think I can hide it from you, but I think those are the words I've been waiting to hear, "she stated. I'm beginning to wonder about her relationship with Vertxander. Could the two of them fall in love in their past? Perhaps they are related. If they are related, she will not be considered a sinner because Vertxander may give her special consideration. Vertxander does not appear to be a man who is unforgiving of others. In fact, despite my appearance, he saved me. I could have died in his hands the moment he saw that I resembled a hacker if he had immediately considered the safety of his people, but he didn't. Instead, he comes up to me and saves me. We also talked as if he knew everything about me. Things are difficult to understand right now, and questions remain unanswered. "I'm glad to hear you've been waiting to hear those words. I can't explain everything because I'm also mystified by what's going on, but I'm sure things will become clear to us soon. All I know is that you are a significant figure in his life, "I stated. "There's no need to be concerned since I believe the two of you will meet eventually. When that time comes, I'm sure he'll reveal who you really are, "I went on to say. She simply glances away from me, as if she wasn't pleased to hear those remarks. Her melancholy expression is reflected in her eyes, which are filled with worry. "Please don't be sad," I pleaded. She simply shakes her head and returns her gaze to me, as if she had just cleared her mind of the serious ideas that had been occupying her mind. "I am not sad and am in good condition. I had a sneaking suspicion that I wouldn't be able to see him. I believe my life will be short because I have already accomplished what I set for myself. They are, I suppose, the sole reason I continue to exist in this world, "she stated. "I sometimes wonder why I am the way I am. How did I come to be content with my life? Why did I become content simply by remaining with you? I sometimes feel as if I don't know why, but my heart always tells me to stay with you, which makes me wonder. I feel as if I have no control over myself or my personal desires. Everything I do is a result of a heartfelt decision. I'm beginning to believe that this body isn't actually mine, and that this life is something I borrowed from God, and that he will soon take it from me, "she stated. What is she talking about? Things like that will never happen because if she dies, she will simply respawn. "I believe you are overthinking things. You need to put those thoughts aside. Even if they are improbable in this world, they make me nervous, "I stated. Lyka and Yuu were inside my room, and I believe he was still treating Yuu's wounds and giving her time alone with Yuu. Yuu’s POV She kept applying medicinal herbs to my wound. She also assists me with cleaning myself and takes excellent care of me. She is very concerned about me. She takes a towel, wets it with water, and begins wiping my face. "I heard from the crowd that there was a man who was having a bad conversation with the known creator of this world. Only you, I believe, are capable of doing so. Why are you acting so recklessly? That is such a stupid thing to do. Are you on the verge of committing suicide? "She stated. When I saw him, all I could think about was how angry I was. If he is responsible for his people, I will not become like this. He acts as if he is a righteous man, but he is nothing more than a jerk with no regard for others. "But I truly want to thank you for everything you've done for my father and all the sacrifices you've made. You have no idea how grateful I am, "she stated. She begins cleaning my jawline while looking at me, and I can feel her warm hands on my face. "There is nothing to be thankful for. All of those things are done because I want them to be done and because I believe it is the correct thing to do. I consider Takahashi as my brother, so I will always be on his side, "I stated. She wipes my forehead with one hand while holding my cheeks with the other. Because the effect of the love potion is still present, her actions make me nervous right now. "I'll be returning to my country shortly, and I'm sure it'll be a long time before I come back here," she remarked. "I want to spend the rest of my time with you and my family. Don't you think it would be a fantastic idea if we played together? "She stated. Well, I don't want to lie, and saying no to her plans would be a mistruth as well. I'm guessing she'll be returning to her country soon, and I'll probably start moving on from her or wait for her, but it'll take a long time. I want to spend as much time as possible with her while she is here. "If that's what you want, we could try it," I said. She stopped wiping my forehead and placed her hands clenched on her legs. "Yuu I'd like to be completely honest with you. I am not blind and I want to make things clear to us. We're both adults now, and I'm sure you're aware of that. I am not blind to the fact that you're attempting to hide your sentiments from me and pretend as if you're not nervous when I'm around. I'm not numb to not feel how much you care for me and express your affection. I want to be clear with you, and I'm telling you this now because I believe that if there's something that needs to be stopped, we should stop it immediately. I genuinely care about you, but I'm afraid I can't like you. I just think of you as someone who could be my uncle. Do you like me? Please answer, " she enquired.
