As she closed her eyes, it felt as if her emotions were spreading out and enveloping everything around her.

An intangible bond developed between them, a melody beyond the range of ears, but lucid for the heart.

Chirp chirp!

Birds tweeted in response to the Siren’s power.

Buzz—

Bees buzzed around an audience of vibrant blooms, nature’s euphony blending into the pleasant ambiance.

Aria outstretched her hand towards the sky.

The wind brushed past her fingertips.

Leaves swayed in the breeze along with the Earth’s unvoiced singing.

‘How lovely.’

She was always singing in tune with an orchestra.

Not to mention, this was the first time she sang outside.

Count Cortez would always watch her closely, in fear that she might escape. That’s why she couldn’t go outside as freely as she wished to.

He would not hesitate to kill animals that approached Aria with his crossbow.

Under the count’s restraint, singing was only allowed indoors, the basement where private parties were held, and inside the emperor’s cage.

“Tender and beautiful fronds of my beloved plane tree,”

But now, Aria sang at her own discretion.

She could hear the birds’ hymn, the insects climbing the grass with serene ease, and the soft breeze caressing her.

“Let fate smile upon you.”

It was almost dawn.

“May thunder, lightning, and storms never bother your dear peace,”

The drizzling stopped.

“Nor may you by blowing winds be profaned.”

Aria leaned over the trunk. A soft smile spread across her lips as she heard the regular beating of its heart.

Golden rays of light came down as woven strands, falling onto the trees as it conjured the most brilliant mosaics, reflecting from each leaf and branch. Making the scenery become something so enchantingly beautiful.

“Never was made a plant more dear and loving or gentle.”

Suddenly, the mighty sun breached the horizon, and the sky exploded with gorgeous colors.

The light surrounding the cherry trees gradually faded, and golden rays escaped the buds as they bloomed into flowers.

“Ugh!”

Aria almost fell over.

She felt dizzy for a moment, so she held onto the tree to support her body.

Her body temperature dropped as she was still wearing wet clothes. She was cold and clammy, and she trembled slightly.

‘Did I overdo it?’

Aria had intentionally left her wound unattended and got soaked all night.

The power of her songs became stronger when she was sick and close to losing consciousness.

People exert miraculous powers that go beyond the limits of their bodies when they are in crisis.

Aria was the same.
