"Please show me the secret. Or at least explain the method to me." Her voice wavered with desperation, a plea echoing the turmoil in her heart.At that moment, both their minds were swirling in an unprecedented chaos. Thoughts collided and fragmented within their heads, creating a storm of confusion and uncertainty. The once beautiful garden around them, a place that had always been a sanctuary of peace and beauty, now seemed to wilt and wither. The flowers drooped, their vibrant colors fading as if the garden itself were a silent witness to the unfolding tragedy, absorbing the despair that emanated from the two figures standing amidst it.Ryoshu moved towards her with a deliberate slowness, his steps measured and purposeful. Each step he took seemed to echo the rhythm of her heartbeat, a rhythm that was initially erratic and frantic but grew steadier and more composed with every movement he made. It was as if his presence alone had the power to calm her racing pulse, to bring a sem

"About Charlotte... I am deeply sorry. I realize now that you must have endured an incredible amount of pain during your period of heartbreak. Dealing with those intense emotions must have been a truly challenging and lonely time for you. I can only imagine the toll it took on you, mentally and emotionally. And I also wanted to express my gratitude for your help in that dream we shared just now and for everything else...""Why are you talking so much?"He couldn't help but feel a surge of satisfaction as he interrupted her mid-sentence. The feeling of finally getting a word in and stopping her lengthy apology gave him a strange sense of triumph. The thought crossed his mind, 'Does this count as a small act of revenge?' It felt like a tiny victory, disrupting her flow as she had often disrupted his thoughts.Esther fell silent, clearly not wanting to discuss the matter any further. She turned to face him, her expression one of unmistakable irritation. Her brows were furrowed, and her e

As he gazed down the ancient corridor adorned with a rich, deep red carpet, Ryoshu couldn't help but feel a sense of nostalgia. Each step echoed softly as he walked toward room number 15. The room's door had a blank nameplate, an empty canvas waiting for its future occupant's name."I can fill it in later, right?" he mused.Inserting the key into the lock, he was pleased to find that the door opened effortlessly. Inside, the room was sparsely furnished, containing only the bare essentials: a bed, a table, a wardrobe, and a modest bathroom. The bathroom, though unremarkable, was clean and functional, with a toilet and a small sink.Ryoshu approached the bed, curious about its comfort. He sat down, surprised by its softness; the mattress yielded almost immediately, offering a plush welcome. This was a pleasant surprise, far surpassing his expectations. Above the bed, neatly hung, were two sets of uniforms: one short-sleeved for summer and one long-sleeved for winter."Great. Now I ha

It might seem paradoxical at first glance, but when you think about it more deeply, it actually makes perfect sense. Ryoshu found himself contemplating this as he carefully picked up his mask, an object that had become both a shield and a liability.'But I'm still being hunted, so I have to be extremely cautious with my movements…' he mused silently, the weight of his situation pressing down on him. He knew all too well that his mask, once an anonymity tool, had become a potential beacon for those seeking him. 'Quite a few people already know about my mask. Maybe I should stop using it altogether. If those agents have found any clues about my identity, it will spell disaster for me,' he thought, a cold dread creeping up his spine.Despite his fears, there was a small comfort in knowing that the Spiral Academy was renowned for its impregnable security and strict defensive measures. Remembering this, Ryoshu felt a slight easing of the tension coiled within him.'Although it's true th

---0w0---In the present moment, Ryoshu found himself meticulously writing in his goal journal, contemplating his objectives for the near future. The light from his desk lamp cast a warm glow on the pages, and the soft sound of his pen scratching against the paper filled the room. He paused momentarily, admiring the bold, eye-catching title that dominated the page.**The Complete Grimoire.**This wasn't just any ordinary skill book. Unlike the common ones that dotted the world, this grimoire was said to contain every bit of knowledge that had ever existed from the dawn of the universe itself. Its vast repository of wisdom and secrets made it one of the most revered Treasures. The thought of such a tome, filled with ancient spells, forgotten lore, and the mysteries of creation, sent a thrill down Ryoshu's spine.In the world of Rainfall Disorder, Treasures are not just items; they are legendary artifacts shrouded in myth and legend, held in awe by the inhabitants of this fantastical r
