Chapter 45 - Volume 2 Extra: Fog in the Heart

One glance over them was enough for him to instinctively smile...

Having been close to them for over half a decade, Draxus always finds their company to be among the better ones than most other friend groups he had.

There was no such thing as leaving one behind, they would all march together for a goal that they wished to achieve.

"All in good fun."

Draxus looked over to his friends as they started talking about a new topic, since their arrival to the other world, they were able to talk about various new things, guiding each other, talking about how they played around, and looking for various improvements.

However, whenever they get the chance to, they would party harder than everyone else.

"So what would your spirit animal be like?" Audrey's question got the group to think deeply. Draxus joined in the conversation and quickly stated his own thoughts. "Owls." A clear answer, his friends were not surprised. "Considering how you behave, and that look without changing your expression for a lot of times... It's not surprising." All of them were smiling as they had pretty much understood Draxus. Olivia was next to him smiling as she was listening to the group, wanting to learn more about Draxus.

"Then Keith would be the capybara." Keith was confused, as Draxus spoke what he thought. "Why a capybara? Well I don't really know what spirit animal would suit me." "It's because you're literally the "I have no enemies" person here among our group. You wouldn't stay around with the arrogant and aggressive ones like tigers or lions who prey on the weak, but you'd be with crocodiles who are extremely dangerous, but would sometimes just chill on one area for no reason." Keith was now convinced, the group continued their topic regarding their spirit animal.

One night, Olivia spotted Keith and Wesley discussing something about Draxus, she stood nearby and hid herself while eavesdropping on their conversation.

"You think Draxus is going to be okay now?" "Drax is... No good, I still see that fog in his soul. All I can guess is that he still is completely afraid to be alone. We couldn't do anything back then, so we're grateful to Serkyrio who has really helped him recover to at least being able to show normalcy... But as expected, we still need to wait until his heart has fully recovered." Keith's words somewhat shocked Olivia, as she had already seen things in regards to Draxus' state. But seeing it from the perspective of others who are concerned about him she couldn't help but feel complicated. As it felt like she was not doing much to help Draxus from his own darkness.

However, knowing that it was just the start of their relationship, and with Lily and Julie supporting him as well, she remained optimistic with helping Draxus to fully recover from the past relationship.
