“Mine, ability?”

Isabella looked at Felix with confusion in her eyes. His tone was remarkably significant.

Transforming into animals, healing the sick, he was already an extraordinary person. However, the fact that he needed her ability made her uneasy.

“You saw it last time, didn’t you? What ability you possess.”

Felix whispered quietly. Isabella could only gaze at him with eyes filled with increasing fear.

“Why would you need my help?”

“I can’t explain it briefly. I will explain the reasons slowly.”

It was an unkind response that plunged her into anxiety in an instant. But Isabella couldn’t reproach Felix.

She thought it was rather fortunate. She wanted to escape the current uneasiness even for a moment. Whatever Felix was going to tell her, she felt she couldn’t endure it in her current state.

“First, let me start with the conclusion that I came to find you today. As I said, I need your ability. That’s why.”

“…”

“I hope you awaken to your ability as soon as possible.”

Isabella bit her lower lip. There were no words that she could comfortably accept. She couldn’t even easily accept the term ‘ability’ for herself. But awakening…

A sigh of relief involuntarily escaped her. Even though she didn’t know what it meant, Felix didn’t show any sympathy for Isabella’s situation.

“If you are okay, I’m willing to help you achieve that. Training, including awakening and mastering your ability.”

The word ‘training’ was unheard of, even in her time as a princess, let alone in her childhood.

Isabella breathed out roughly. She felt herself gradually getting tired amid the incessant confusion.

Her feelings were encapsulated in the long sigh she let out. Without delay, Felix added to his words.

“I can’t be sure, but if you awaken, you might be able to retrieve the memories you’ve forgotten.”

Isabella’s gaze, which had fallen weakly, turned sharply towards Felix. In response to her intense gaze, Felix shrugged his shoulders slightly.

“I’ve said it before, but I can’t be sure. Just don’t place too much expectation on this, considering it’s all my speculation.”

“I understand.”
Before Felix’s words could finish, Isabella responded with a firm determination. Although it was an attempt to convince her, Felix felt a heavy heart due to her abrupt change in attitude. It seemed like Isabella was overly trusting in my speculative words.

The heavy sense of responsibility on his shoulders made it difficult for him to rejoice, even after hearing the desired answer.

“Isabella, I’ve said it repeatedly, but my previous words were merely my speculation. So, if you answered with the conviction that you can recover your memories, think again. I don’t want to cause you unnecessary disappointment.”

“No. If there’s even a slight possibility of recovering my memories…”

“…”

“If that’s the case, it doesn’t matter. I want to recover my memories, and I’ve sat and contemplated enough. Yet, nothing more comes to mind. So, we need to try another method.”

Despite Felix’s dissuasion, Isabella firmly raised her head. Her expression, eye gaze, and even her tone carried a strong determination.

Her gaze then turned to Caliph. He, with eyes filled to the brim, wore an even more uncomfortable expression than Felix.

It was evident that he thought he was taking the difficult path by choosing it himself. His eyes were becoming tender enough to feel that one couldn’t remain ignorant.

Isabella quickly brought a smile to her lips. Despite that, her words toward Felix did not stop.

“I’ll do it. I can do it. So…”

“…”

“Help me.”

As she spoke, her eyes, much like Caliph’s, shone with a poignant expression.

Yustia sat alone in the Yurion Room, sipping her tea. Despite spending time in a place she usually enjoyed, her sinking mood showed no signs of improvement.

“Sigh…”

Letting out a sigh, she tilted her head and pressed her temples. Her head hurt too much. It had been several days since the continuous headache began.

Even though she had never been comfortable with Duke Garnet and never had a day off, this was the first time her headache had become so intense.

Everything felt unfamiliar. Starting with her only son, Rurian, to Dwayne and Gadró, who suddenly changed their attitudes.

The situation was complicated, and as it changed rapidly, it was not easy to deal with the three of them, especially considering all the decisions she had to make.

“Anyway, one thing is for sure; I must not lose Rurian.”

Yustia murmured thoughtfully. The situation was complex, but to put it simply, Dwayne and Gadró had different thoughts and attitudes toward Rurian.

Dwayne, who had been summoning the Holy Flame to create a place for Relia, had clearly said that.
Every word that came out of him was clearly pointing to Rurian. What was surprising was that his voice, narrating Rurian’s story, sounded somewhat satisfied.

The same went for Gadró.
