"Hazuki~"
Ellyna spoke, her voice rich, soft, and undeniably mature—the voice of a woman, not a child.
Hazuki's body reacted before his mind could catch up.
He stood up sharply, his wide, stunned eyes locking onto hers—those glowing, golden Absolute Eyes looking straight into him.
For a heartbeat—
For a breath—
The entire world fell away.
It was just him and her.
Just her radiant form in that bridal gown, standing in a halo of shimmering light.
Overwhelmed by a flood of emotions, Hazuki stumbled over his words.
"You…," he croaked, his throat dry.
"My… future... wife…"
Ellyna smiled softly.
"Yes~" she whispered.
Hazuki's heart skipped.
His brain stuttered.
"A-a— I— ii— iiii—"
He stammered, his mind spiraling into white noise.
Adult Ellyn is here.
Wait. Which one is real? Adult or kid!? Was she always this beautiful?
Is the kid form fake!? Is this a dream!? Am I dreaming!?
His soul nearly flew out of his body.
And then—
Poof!
In a blink, the glow vanished.
