[COMPLETED] |  [SHORT NOVEL]  
Being one of the strongest Unverse Realm Guardian, Suzume-san knew it was soon time for her to step off from the job. Having her apprentice named Ryuu, she knew what she taught him is enough to let him on his own. Suzume believes that his talents and huge potential for greatness can guide him even without her anymore. 

And so, she began to prepare for her expiration. 

But Ryuu has other plans. 

Ryuu in the mortal realm is a bastard of the Headmaster of an infamous Academy. He is born with innate talents and powers to become one of the strongest Unverse Guardians... but for him, it is not actually enough; it wasn't his goal to begin with.


His  actual goal is make Suzume fall in love with him but the prim and proper Suzume is one tough -and dense- cookie to crack!

"I have a plan" he says, a plan that feels far more dangerous for her heart can handle. 

Would it save her? Would a selfish and seemingly childish plan change her mind? 
Or would he become her undoing?


There's not much time left but only seconds to beat.
