There are always some subjects that make Ryan feel weird about Miss Yana/Iannae. He doesn't want to think like that but it felt like She was not telling her story to Ryan instead It almost felt like this story belongs to someone else rather than Iannae. It might be true that the pain she was going through. Is what she was truly put up with perhaps the way she was talking it's more like she would not accept the fact that she was the same person.
Back then Ryan, considered that it must be Iannae's point of concept that she may be considering herself as a 3rd person to let herself overcome the past incident but it's still odd. After a pause in his breathing. He concluded that for a while he is going to investigate Miss Yana.
A couple of months later a meeting was held within the priesthood to discuss something really important. Iannae is allowed to take part in, due to the hard work she has done regarding Ryan's health conditions.
In this meeting. Everyone supports Iannae to give her point of view regarding the discussion. As a guardian she has the right to take part in such kinds of meetings.
Ryan was waiting outside the meeting room for Iannae. He just wants to see her face because it's already been 3 weeks exactly since he had a proper conversation with Iannae. Although She pays some visits momentarily to stabilise his mana but they never talked about each other or even if they, It's always regarding Ryan's health conditions over which they hold a less than a five-minute conversation. Recently Iannae has become much more occupied and busier than Ryan has ever been and that's what made Ryaniar curious to know what made her so busy for the past few days? That she even lost the track of time before she had last taught Ryan that uncompleted story.
When Iannae comes out of the meeting room it's past 5 pm. She sees Ryan, who is resting under the banyan tree to get a closer look of his scouring and peacefully sleeping .She approaches him carefully. It makes her happy to see him. Right now she is unable to tease Ruan because he is dozing off.
When Ryan opens his eyes. He found himself on his bed at 3 am. He asked Jeremy "who brought me here?" Jeremy fell asleep already. In his stead, Joseph replies " It was Miss Iannae you were asleep so, you might not know when she left you on your bed, Ryan."
Ryan starts cursing himself. He wanted to talk to Miss Yana but he fell asleep. He even curses the autumn seasons which is good for taking naps under the tree.
He can't hold his resentment so he goes outside. It was still past midnight but he needed to inhale some fresh air and scream for a while alone in these peaceful surroundings. He lost his opportunity to meet Iannae. It's tough to get an opportunity for him to meet Iannae in Iris's existence. He squats down to make his anger subside by closing his eyes shut.
while murmuring to himself ' I wish if a goddess of darkness existed then please take me with you so I can go to hell' after deeply 'sighing' He reopened his eyes and saw Iannae in front of him. Iannae's straight long shiny black hair is tangling around the breeze and her pale skin which looks even fainter due to the moon's deliberation. She is wearing a black gown with a red eye-covered band that she doesn't usually wear during the evening. . .She is looking marvellous that Ryan assumes It's almost as if Iannae is the goddess herself. . .and accepts Ryan's stupid desire for strolling alongside him down to hell.
"Ryan, what are you doing here? It's late now, you should not be wandering around at past midnight," said Iannae.
Ryan doesn't appreciate that Iannae still thinks of him as a child. Ryan grimaced his lips and replied. . ." Miss Yana is here too".
"Oh! me, It's fine. . . I am just unable to fall asleep. Recently, there is a lot of work and responsibilities which already gave me a headache thanks to your favourite priest. I have a lot of things to manage." by sprucing up her back .She asked "have you already reckoned who it was?"
Ryan knows that it's only Iris who could order Iannae to do work. without hesitation, he said "Priest Iris"
"Well who else," said Iannae with a delighted face.
They both were laughing as soon as Iris's name was brought up while walking alongside each other Ryan showed displease, heeding Iannae's very limited visits. If Ryan has a chance then he will meet Iannae every day and to be precise he will insist on doing so all the time so that they can never get seperated.
He knows that she is busy. It just makes him sulky at times when she is not able to meet him. Ryan has never been bad in holding his emotion. That must be the reason why he suddenly hugs Iannae. Although she calmly accepts his hug because It's not the first time they were hugging so it's not awkward between the two. she just thought that he is just an innocent young child who does not have any parental affection and there is also a thing that he is her sacred bate. who is similar to the actual Iannae. Who also does not have anyone to rely on. Iannae generously pats Ryan's back.
Ryan's head is barely able to match Iannae's collarbone. He is 143 centimetres in height. and 14 years old in age Later he will grow taller after reaching adulthood entirely or who knows that even before that he might get sacrificed instead.
Ryan cautiously asks Iannae what they all discussed inside the meeting room. Iannae did not hesitate and said "there are a lot of things that need to be discussed and it's regarding you, Rayn. "
"No one is going to tell you but your Master. I would feel guilty if I hid this information from you. It's really important for you but before that, you need to know this piece of advice.
Ryan, you are the son of the emperor Achilles. I know you already knew about your mother Eunoia the former Empress right?.. You need to become stronger. so that your siblings would not defeat you in the battle of Throne. . . "
Ryan kept his mouth shut for 2 minutes. Iannae can gasp how shocked and pitiful Ryan looks. . .
"I don't want to. . ." said Ryan.
