Chapter 37: Will You Be Mine
"You knew I would perform the ritual so you teleported here instead of the palace, didn’t you?" Ferdinand asked Alwin.
"Yes, milord. It would be best to perform it here where it was closest to the gods," Alwin explained and Arabella nervously watched the two.
’What are they going to do? Will they truly try to revive me? But why am I reborn in my second life instead? Is that how it works?’
"Milord, please allow me to perform the ritual of the elven race first. If I fail, then milord can perform the ritual of the dragon race," Alwin kneeled and Ferdinand stared at him.
"Arabella is my wife Alwin. I should be the one performing a revival ritual."
"But the risks, milord. If something happens to you, the young master will be very sad."
"You should reserve it for when you get a wife. You never know what happens. Moreover, it is my fault that this happened to Arabella. I should take responsibility. She is my wife after all. Fermin will understand me someday. And I will not fail. I will definitely bring my wife back no matter the cost," Ferdinand said with determined eyes.
’They are really trying to revive me. Is revival normal in Estrella?’ Arabella looked back and forth over the two.
"Then at least allow me to assist you, milord. No revival ritual has ever succeeded. But if we combine the two rituals, perhaps we can raise the possibility of success. No, we will succeed no matter what. I have never performed it on my own before, but I have assisted other elves."
Alwin did not give up until Ferdinand had no choice but to agree and they discussed how to perform the ritual.
Alwin totally ignored her even when she kept giving him the stop sign.
