“So he wants those things? Wow.”

Everyone was speechless and dumbfounded at the price Rotheon put on his yellow-rank magic crystal. He wanted a tier-5 spell book, a tier-5 potion called Peaceful Inception, a tier-5 magic amplified staff weapon, and a tier-5 enchanted magic ring of his choice.

The most valuable thing in Rotheon’s demand list was the tier-5 spell.

Tier-5 spells were like treasures to everyone, and they were so rare that not every 1st class magician possessed them. Those 1st class magicians who managed to create their own tier-5 spells were considered the best of the best, and they were not willing to give it to others except for people extremely close to them.

“Since this magic crystal is rare right now, I think a few big organizations, governments, or families will definitely come forward to buy it,” Zevien said before he wryly smiled, “anyway, this is none of our business so let’s focus on our work. We will be launching the Realm of Spirits soon.”

Dan and Erica left in the car to the spell gauntlet research lab while Zevien told Vernisia to come with him for a small business as they had no more cards to finish. They only needed to copy those cards when production would set up to create batches of them according to their rarity.

Both of them came out as Zevien started his bike while Vernisia sat behind him.

“So, where are we going?” Vernisia asked.

“Ahem, you should grab me tightly, you know? It’s more comfortable that way,” Zevien said as he lightly pulled the lever, which caused Vernisia to involuntarily grab Zevien’s waist.

“Now, this is good,” Zevien said cheekily after accomplishing his mission.

“You…,” Vernisia pinched Zevien’s skin with a speechless expression and moved her hands to his shoulder before saying, “this is fine as well.”

“Alright, my good lady. Just grab tightly,” Zevien laughed as he started driving and increased his speed quickly.

“Humph, this is nothing,” Vernisia snickered jokingly before asking, “anyway, what business are we attending?”

“I got a scroll inscribed with a tier-4 spell, and I want to see if it’s registered or not,” Zevien said, “if it’s not registered, then you know we can get a lot of money.”

Vernisia was surprised before she frowned, “it’s a tier-4 magic spell. Won’t it be dangerous with only two of us going to the magic guild branch for registration?”

“Yep, but there will be someone there for us,” Zevien said with a smile, “don’t you know that miss Raven is also a sub-executive of the magic guild branch in this city?”

“Oh yeah. You have close ties with miss Raven.”

“We are just business partners and have the relationship of senior-junior friends.”

“Yeah, I know,” Vernisia said casually, “it’s good that you have such solid connections.”

“Vernisia, can I tell you something?”

“Sure.”

“I love you.”

Vernisia was startled before her cheeks turned slightly pink.

“Sad, no response,” Zevien sounded sad as he sighed before speaking again, “I just had an urge to tell you that, so I said it. You can tell me when you are absolutely sure of your feelings. That message you sent doesn’t count.”

‘Sure of my feelings? I am sure, Zevien,’ Vernisia thought as her heart beat faster, ‘how can I remain indifferent to my own feelings after seeing all those visions? Sorry mom, I…I can’t hold back anymore.’

Zevien had already told them that he had memories of everything before the time rewind. So, she obviously knew how much he loved her after seeing those visions and getting confirmation of her own feelings.

The feelings inside her heart for Zevien became crystal clear when she saw the visions. From that moment, she longed to tell Zevien about her feelings every day but held back because of her promise to her mother.

But…screw that promise! She couldn’t hold back anymore. Not when Zevien was near and always made her feel special and the love he showed he had for her every-single-day.

He was willing to do everything for her, and so was she for him!

Vernisia put her arms down from Zevien’s shoulder before locking them around Zevien’s waist.

Zevien was surprised but immensely happy. An electrical feeling passed through his body as Vernisia tightly hugged him from behind.

Vernisia neared his ear from behind and whispered, “I love you, Zevien. I am sure of it. This fact and my feelings for you will never change.”

*scree…*

Zevien hit the brakes as he stopped the bike near the footpath.

Vernisia was startled before her face turned pink again while her heart raced, ‘what is he going to do?’

She saw Zevien getting up from the bike and grabbing her waist as he put her in front of him before tightly hugging her.

“Y-you know…I wanted to hear this ever since the time rewind,” Zevien’s voice cracked as he remembered the last moments of Vernisia before the time rewind, “you said those words previously and died in my arms. With that, my entire world crumbled.

“But now you are back into my arms. Vernisia, you…you are my everything. This fact and my feelings for you will never ever change.”

Vernisia also couldn’t help but get teary-eyed like Zevien, “I know. I had seen visions about us of our previous life before the time rewound. I wanted to tell you early at that time, but I didn’t want to ruin your bright future.

“Still,…stupid me got selfish and couldn’t help but say it before my last moments because I loved you so much. I wanted to let you know that because I knew you also loved me. Inwardly, I knew that we had become inseparable.”

“Mhmm, we were inseparable before but got separated. However, we will not let it happen this time.”

“Mhmm,” Vernisia nodded with a radiant smile, “we will not let it happen this time.”

Zevien broke the hug before looking into her eyes with a loving smile, “I vow to be with you until the end of eternity.”

Vernisia was feeling fluttery inside and understood the wordplay of Zevien as she also repeated with a loving smile, “I, too, vow to be with you until the end of eternity,”

They closed into each other before locking their lips for their first kiss.
