I took a deep breath, feeling like a soldier thrown into battle without armor or strategy. I had come here with simple intentions: to spend some time together, maybe slowly build this relationship, taking things one step at a time. But Yumi? She was like a homing missile that hit dead center.
Marriage, huh?
The word echoed in my mind, like an alarm I couldn't shut off. To be honest, I'd never really thought about it. Not because I didn't care or lacked feelings for Yumi. It was just… this world, our circumstances, everything felt too chaotic to even consider something as monumental as that.
With everything happening—the Dragonia invasion, the Nidhogg curse gnawing at me, the looming war—marriage seemed like something completely out of reach. Did I even have the right to consider it?
