I dashed out of Braveheart Castle in a hurry. The guards looked at me, startled, as if I were being chased by demons.
But I didn't care.
There was only one thing on my mind—
Serena.
Without wasting a second, I activated [Kasoseki 3X], tripling my speed.
"Whoa, Master, you're really in a rush," Runa chimed in my head.
"That's because… I… I want to tell Serena how I truly feel. It's now or never," I declared with unwavering resolve.
"I'm cheering for you, Master! This feels like the climax of a romance drama!" Runa laughed, clearly enjoying the show.
I sprinted through the bustling streets of Braveheart, my heart pounding—not just from running, but from longing. I missed Serena more than words could express.
At last, I had fulfilled my promise. I was a hero now. I could finally stand by her side on the battlefield.
I wanted to protect her. I wanted to keep her safe. I wanted to make her happy. I couldn't let her keep waiting.
