Hearing Uchiha Hiko's words, Miss Kobayashi nestled into his arms and spoke with some relief:
"Of course I'm not afraid of what you might do. I just think that if your ability is so powerful, you need to control it carefully. It wouldn't be good if you hurt yourself."
Realizing that Miss Kobayashi had been worried about him, Uchiha Hiko let out a soft laugh. He turned to her and said:
"Yui, I took care of those three people who usually harass you today, so don't worry. No one will dare bother you again. From now on, just stay by my side."
"As long as everyone in this village knows you're my woman, they'll all treat you with respect."
Hearing Uchiha Hiko's words, Miss Kobayashi carefully nestled into his arms and said with a smile:
"Don't worry, I understand. No matter what happens, you'll protect me, won't you? And I'll always be your strong support."
Hearing Miss Kobayashi's words, Uchiha Hiko's mood suddenly brightened.
Because Miss Kobayashi truly had been, just as she said, his steadfast support all along.
Although she was not very capable, when those bodyguards rushed at them, she had still used her frail body to stand in front of Uchiha Hiko. She had sworn to live and die with him.
Thinking of this, Uchiha Hiko frowned slightly and said to Miss Kobayashi:
"Yui, I know I'm in your heart, and I know you're always concerned for my safety. But if danger like that appears again, I hope you'll be the first one to run."
Miss Kobayashi was slightly stunned when she heard Uchiha Hiko's words. He was blaming her for standing in front of him at such a dangerous moment.
But the situation had been so urgent then that she had not thought much about it.
