Aya was engulfed in reading the history of this world. But she already read three books, in which all of them mentioned how dangerous the luminaries were, that they were the reason of disasters happening in their world.

"Then they shouldn't call them luminaries in the first place" she mumbled as she closed the third book and again got another one.

She was waiting for Hisame to return since he went to find the only map that had the way towards Mt. Cloudorous, but it was taking time since there were lots of them, and Hisame couldn't remember where was it.

"Sorry for the wait, Aya-san" Hisame returned with a huge map on his hand

"It's fine- that's a huge one in your hand."

"Yes, most real maps are this big, since they show other places" he responded then roamed his eyes around "where's Seijuro-san?"

"He seemed sleepy so I told him to take a nap first while waiting" Aya answered as she pointed at Akashi, who was sleeping at the sofa, with a blanket covering him

Hisame chuckled as he put down the map and leaned it on the table "well, it's understandable that he is sleepy. Since the day you didn't wake up, then momentarily died, until you were revived, and got better, he didn't sleep at all."

"Hisame" Aya called him seriously and whispered "what happened that day? You know... the day, I... died... Seijurou isn't telling me anything."

"Well, he told us not to tell you anything though. It was crazy and he really didn't give up on you"

"Please, Hisame. Tell me what happened. I didn't even realize that I died, and even I got sick. When I woke up, it was as if I am perfectly fine."

"True. Normally, you would be in bed for couple of days, but you went and quarrel with Rihito's group"

"It wasn't me who started it" Aya defended "anyways, Hisame, tell me what happened, please"

Hisame glimpsed at Akashi, then looked at Aya, whispered at her "it started when Seijurou-san suddenly called mother and Prince Sora, telling that something was wrong with you. It was early morning of the 5th, and there were lots of people in my house, especially the villagers you saved. I went to call sensei, but when we arrived, Seijurou-san was already trying to revive you. You weren't breathing anymore. What's more, the weather was worse. Raining, snowing, thunderstorms. Most gave up already, mourning already, except for Seijurou-san. He kept on pumping your chest, not giving up. After an hour, Prince Sora wanted him to stop, because he was really tired. Seijurou-san was crying badly. He was crying and losing his composure."

"So I died... how did... uhm... I was revived, surely... but how?" Aya stuttered since she found it absurd

"We also didn't know what happened. Seijurou-san was hugging you, and crying, he even asked Prince Sora how to give his lifespan to you, he said that he is willing to give his lifespan to you. But they said that they only know how to put a lifespan in an object, but not to a person. But then, your body suddenly light up, and you started breathing again."

"What happened?! My body light up?!"

"Yeah, you were revived, but was down with high fever. Seijurou-san looked after you. We were telling him to rest, but he didn't want to. He was looking after you. Well, when you woke up, he just went to the bathroom, and was horrified when he saw you nowhere, and was already fighting Rihito"

"So that happened... I didn't feel like that happened to me" Aya muttered looking at Akashi "he saved me again"

Hisame chuckled as he got the books on the table "he really did. He really loves you, Aya-san." He stated making Aya's face in deep red "you two are lovers, so don't react like that"
