"Alright let's heat back to your hut

"Alright let's heat back to your hut." I said letting go of his hand and standing up. I sit down on Amy as he Muriel and Inanna were walking back.

"I will give you a present next year" he said still feeling guilty for not knowing. "Alright I'll be waiting then" I answered smiling.

Reaching the hut we weren't talking much. The day actually ended with us both being asleep. Muriel got me on his bed again. He wasn't comfortable enough to sleep with me on it so he used the ground again.

Usually when Muriel wakes up I am still in bed sleeping. He wakes up pretty early but today I was up earlier. I put on my mask and a cloak and walked out with Amy. I was on my way to Vesuvia. To be honest actually the first time for not doing something bad. I wanted to buy things for breakfast so we could eat today but unfortunately I woke Muriel up on my way leaving. So after a few minutes of walking out of the forest I had company.

"I had enough home" he said trying to convince me to turn around. "Also I don't have money to pay" he murmurs.

"I pay. I have money. But I am happy you came with me. It feels like we're getting close" I said and blush

He kept quiet. "Did your dream came true?" He asked looking away as I giggled. "Nope. Will take a while I guess. But if the contact mark with the devil is still there it won't leave."

"Where is the contacts mark?" He asked shy.

I blushed. "I-I-I think it's on my back." I Said getting all shy

"..."

We had silence for a few minutes. It took Muriel time to find the right words. Trying not to scare me off. "ShouldIlooktoday?" He asked extremely fast looking towards me.

I nodded. "Yes"

We were in Vesuvia now. We walked next to each other in silence. After our talk we refused to move on with the theme. So silence was it.

"Muriel?" A familiar voice sounded up.

"Hello Asra. Hello Julian. He answered with a small smile.

"Hello to you too (y/n) long time no see! Your living with Muriel now?" He asked with a grin looking at me

"Hello" I said and looked up at Muriel. "Who is Julian?" I asked in a whisper.

"Hey hello here can't you see me?" He said waving his hands coming near me.

"Don't move" I said as I put a freezing spell on him. He couldn't move his legs even if he wanted too.

"Sorry Ilya you better don't move fast when you with her. She's blind so no fast moves, okay? Did we bother you both? We better leave now. Still (y/n) if your interested in some magic don't hide and come visit me sometime okay?" He said smiling.

"Sorry" was all that Julian said until I free him from the spell. Both left and Muriel and I continued walking towards the market. "Sorry for being noisy. I just don't like new people"

Muriel gave me a head pat. "I know"

We walked towards the bread market. And I bought some. I hope the boss didn't recognized me since I stole some from him a while ago.

We also bought some fruits and vegetables. So we can make some dinner today. Well Muriel told me what to get.

We were on the way back. On the forest I went off from Amy. He should rest now. Using the magic all the time is bad for him.

"Can we hold hands? So I don't fall?" I asked shy as I pointed out my hand. He didn't moved at first but eventually he grabbed my hand.

I felt happy. As if someone was finally happy with me. Wait. I don't know if he feels happy. I wish I could tell what he feels. My hands felt so small in Muriels.

We were at the hut. We went to the chicken and took care of them and we spend the day together. Time passed and eventually it came to the moment where I took off my shirt.

I turned my back towards Muriel. And he was looking at it. I could feel his stare but he wasn't saying anything.

"Is something wrong?" I asked embarrassed.

I felt his touch on my back and I flinched.
"Muriel??" I asked flustered.

"A scar. But no symbols"

I turn around in excitement. "Wait what? That good. Ou yeah that's real good. That's means someday I wake up and be able to see the cure is over. Wait but Lucio isn't death yet. I have to find out how... and the scar is from Amy. I rescued him from the ocean. He run away from an illegal trade. But he was on a boat so he jumped off it. I was there. Well not really but some friends told me someone needs help so I rescued him. He obviously wasn't trusting me at first so he attacked me but eventually we grown up as friends."

Muriel might be not the best talker but he was an amazing listener and that was all it takes.

"I understand. How will you find out?" He asked.

"Black magic" I answered shortly. "I am going to check out Lucio's future. If that isn't the reason why the cure is over then he had his own deal with the devil and mine just left. Lukas Sacrifice might not pleasure him but it's enough for him at the start."

"I understand." Was all he got to say Muriels Past with count Lucio wasn't the best so.

"Can you watch out for me while I am doing the spell?"

He growled. But like the one that's says "yes"

"One thing before that happens. Do not touch me during the process. What ever you might hear or see. Don't touch me. I don't want you to  get hurt. Stay put. If I pass out the spell is over and you are allowed to touch me. But during that don't move a finger."
