Chapter 55: Always, Tomorrow By Together
[TAMIKO]
"I have to leave, Hinata. Duty calls," Lord Sadako said when the sun was high up in the sky. The whole morning, they had played games with each other, though it was more of Lord Sadako offering the young lycan a distraction.
He had seen how disturbed Tamiko was and had figured that he could at least try to make it better for the kid.
However, even then, Lord Sadako wished that he had had more time. He needed to know more about Tamiko so he could tell his brother in bits, and maybe, just maybe, his brother would be better, right?
"Well, this was fun. I guess I’ll see you in a few days for the meal then you can tell me when you want to train me, yeah?" Tamiko said as he looked at the man he had grown so comfortable with.
If anyone didn’t know them, they could have assumed that right now, Lord Sadako and Tamiko were a father and son duo. They bonded so well it was a beautiful sight.
"I’ll let you know. Don’t worry. If I can’t make it, I will send you a dream," Sadako said and Tamiko burst out laughing at the absurdity of the statement that the lycan Lord had just suggested. Surely he couldn’t really be thinking he had some magic and shit, no?
However, when Tamiko revealed how dead-serious Sadako was, he went from laughing to being curious, which was something that Sadako had expected.
"Wait, you can really do that? Can I too? Is it something that all lycans can do? I could use that on a few bastards in Grealor," Tamiko asked and this time, it was Sadako’s turn to laugh at the kid with him.
The young lycan looked so curious it reminded Sadako of the time he and Zaffuto had gone to visit Quen Liana’s mother.
It was something that the lycan king had not known how to do, so a day before the visitation day, they had walked door to door asking the older lycans what was expected for an introduction.
