Max stared at Jubelian with dim eyes.

'Did you reject me?'

Just a moment ago, when he saw her with someone else, his eyes were spinning. Unlike the selfless-looking Jubelian, the man next to her was looking at her with a dog's rum-hungry eyes, expecting the master's touch. And when he heard about dinner, he was angry and wanted to get rid of the man next to Jubelian right away. Nevertheless, Max suppressed his fiery innermost thoughts purely because he did not want to be lost to her.

But she took the man's side and ignored him.

'You don't even know with what eyes the little fellow is looking at you!'

His blood boiled with frustration, and anger soared. He wanted to destroy all the brawls that instinct told him to do, clean up all the hindrances that were looking after her, and beg Jubelian to look at him and love him.

However, the moment he encountered Juvelian's blue eyes, Max had no choice but to suppress his desire for destruction, which would be harsh inside.

'I don't want to be hated by you. Now, the world without you... There is not much to imagine.'

Worthy of his nickname as a monster, his world was always devastated and achromatic. It didn't matter, though. He've lived like that, and he've been satisfied with it. But one day, he happened to see the light. A colorful, so beautiful, crying light. He wanted it, so he had no choice but to stop trying to touch it.

For the first time, fear rose. If the room gets too bad, the light will leave him. Because of the concern, Max played the harmless, docile beast in front of her. Sometimes he threw away his pride, but it didn't matter.

If he could keep the only light of his life, Jubelian, by his side, he could endure anything. But even after trying hard to chase her, he couldn't get his hands on her. He felt like he was chasing an illusion like the moon in the night sky that he couldn't catch even if he climbed high. The feeling of being weighed down by the desolation, but Max only stared silently at Jubelian.

'If you give me a bit of excuse, then...'

The moment he felt the weak body temperature that held his hand, Max held the hand tight so that she could not come off. Then he thought, staring at Jubelian looking at her with amazed eyes.

'I will never miss it.'

I dragged him up to the roof of the building, looking for a place to talk quietly.

'Will it be okay here?'

There was a dusk in the sky before I knew it. And his face was so dark.

"Max," he stared at me at my call. Unlike before, when I was looking at him without focus, my eyes were clear now.

"I'm sorry."

"What?"

I apologized first out of feeling sorry, but I was surprised by his unusually cold voice. But when I think about it, it's not that I don't understand him either.

"A while ago... I misunderstood you.''

"What misunderstanding?''

I was speechless at his words.

Actually, I was disappointed to see you with another woman at a time when I didn't accept your confession.

"Oh, I thought you violated the contract." As I hurried to talk, he looked at me with his eyes wide open.

"Contract violation?"

"Why, you know. You said before, too."

As he stood around, he said with a frown.
