The Curse That Bound Blood
She gazed at the crimson horn clipped to the side of Victor's belt.
This was a horn previously used by Niklaus.
One with no relations with demons never had the right to use this thing with so much comfort.
But Victor used it without any trouble.
Every indication pointed to one thing and Victor still did not want to speak about it.
She wanted to ask again.
She wanted to scream for an answer.
However, seeing Victor's golden eyes distant...
Her heart softened.
"Then...""Alright, I'll keep quiet."
Victor glanced at her briefly.
"... Thank you."
That short response was more than enough to assuage her.
Videl smiled a little.
"I'll be waiting until you're ready."
Victor did not reply.
But in his heart...
He was so grateful for her understanding words.
The rest of their travel was filled with silence.
Aria watched the pair from afar.
Her emerald-green eyes flickered between Victor and Videl many times.
