"I want you to lend us your power. I want you to come with us."
"My... Power..." This seems to be a trigger for the Seiryuu, he quickly grabs Yuriko's collar and prepare to stab her with his sword.
"Yuriko!/Nee-sama!" Both Yoon and Yona immediately shout in concern when they saw this scene.
"Enemies... Those who desire the power of Seiryuu... Are enemies...!!" He shouts, but Yuriko just looks at him with a stern expression, without any fear in them.
"You... What are you..? I don't... Know you."
'Why is my hand shaking?'
"Why...." 'Do I want to cry?' He complete his question in his heart as he grits his teeth.
"Seiryuu. I am not your enemy. We are searching for the four dragons.. So our companious and I can continue living. I want to welcome you as a friend." She reach her hand out to the Seiryuu.
'Fri.... End... Friend...'
".... I... Am... Cursed. So..."
"Cursed..?"
"This power... Must never.. Know... Of the outside. It's destructive power." This makes Yuriko's heart pangs in pain.
"... Who said that?"
"It's the truth. I won't.. Use the power of these eyes again." Yyriko frowns deeper at his words.
'How.... It is a curse...'
"So... You're saying you won't go...? No matter what?"
"....... Leave... Leave."
Yuriko then just stare at him in silence with unreadable expression.
"Yuriko?"
".... I will just say... One thing." He then lift his head and looks her in her eyes, making her eyes changed slowly and becomes a clear crystal colour.
"Your hand was... Very warm. I... Still don't think that your power is a curse... But, if that was the hand of someone cursed, then... I don't care at all that you have.. A terrifying curse. I will.... Be waiting for you." She smiles at him, then they leave him.
'She's leaving now... My heart... Feels like it's being torn apart.
"I want to welcome you as a friend."
Friend....
"Ao... Ao, I... Want friends."
I've always... Wanted to forget that, yet....'
ー・・ー・ー・・ー ・ー・・ ー・ー・¬
"Yuriko. You don't look conviced at all." Yoon stated as he looks at the frown that still on her face after they leave the Seiryuu' s room.
"That room... Had nothing in it... I wonder if he is eating properly? It feels like... I've left a very special person inside a dark cage..."
"It's.. Kind of noisy..." Yoon says as they hear noise at the door of the pathway.
"Kija.. Woah!"
"Princess, please stay back." Kija block the way out.
"Ah... So they're still here... They are stubborn." Yuriko sigh.
"They came out."
"They came out.
"Finish them." The guys with masks walks closer to them.
"Wh-what are these guys doing...?" Yoon ask.
"They are olanning to dispose of us in order to keep Seiryuu hidden. Hayah!" He then smack the head of a man with his right hand.
"Do not worry! I do not use my power against amateurs."
"You're hitting him with ten times the strength of a normal human." Yoon deadpanned.
"Why.... Why are you people so.."
"Yuriko-san! It's dangerous!" Kija blocked her way.
"Whoa! Stop doing that! This place is cramped!!" Yoon avoid the guy that swing their knife at him.
Rumble RUMBLE
The cave suddenly shakes.
"What?!"
"An earthquake?!" Yoon shout in surprise.
"Princess!"
"Yoon-san! Kija! Ojousama!" Yuriko saw that Kija already protect Yona, so she immediately cover Yoon with her body.
