Upon hearing her beloved disciple's words, Sigrún tightened her grip on Erik's arm and whispered sweetly in his ear, her voice full of love.
"You don't have to do that, Erik. You don't need to fulfill anything; I just want you by my side."

Just smile at me every day like you always do; that's all I need to be happy and feel encouraged," Eleonora also whispered lovingly in Erik's ear, her eyes misting over as she squeezed his arm even tighter.

Erik stood there, accompanied by Eleonora and Sigrún.
"Fufufu, aren't you excited about your first class, Erik?" Eleonora smiled a little excitedly as she looked at the star-haired boy beside her.
