Danmachi: Westward Cloud [Complete]

[Vol.2] Quest 115.5- Ruined Opportunity

Susanoo Familia’s home.

“I can’t believe they did this when I was spending time with Cirrus!!” Ai said while punching her pillow. “And I was…” her face reddened, and she stuffed her face into her pillow.

‘He was going to confess I know it!! But it was ruined!!’

Agonizing over the missed chance, a voice rang through her ears. It was as calm and elegant as it was softly muttered into the young Renard's ears.

‘The next time you are alone, follow your heart~,’

She lifted her head up and clenched her fists. There was still a chance to get what was lost.

“I’ll make sure to follow my heart! Wait..." she looked around. "Who said that?”

Back in Melen.

“There, now when the next opportunity comes, it'll be easier. But honestly, I feel bad for Alecto’s Familia… they're going to be utterly crushed for ruining a planned-out date.” A smirk formed on Hera's perfect face as she turns on Cirrus' feed. "I can't wait to see you shine once more, Cirrus." She watches as he prepares himself.

As Ai slept, Hera would whisper to her advice from the conch.
