"Alright, we have a deal."
"Mm-hmm, let’s go."
Fisher turned his head, caught between laughing and crying, as he waved the reins to set off, heading in the general direction of the Dragon Court. Fisher had clearly walked with Rafael on this path once before, but now he couldn’t recognize it at all since the battle between Elliog and Barbatos had completely altered the shape of the earth and mountains.
Previously, a notion called the "Fermat Baha’s Blessing" started spreading within Rafael’s army, claiming that the Dragon God manifested, and those gales and the powerful forces piercing through the mountains and ocean were summoned by the Dragon God to punish those humans.
Rafael’s memory remained stuck before entering the Dynasty, and after that, her memory was quite blurred. She faintly remembered wanting to save Fisher, but there was one thing she recalled very clearly...
The wheels spun rapidly, and from inside the carriage behind her, Rafael’s call suddenly came again,
"Fisher..."
"What is it?"
"While you were in the Dynasty, did you do anything with Moli?"
Fisher’s posture stiffened slightly as he turned his head to look inside the carriage, only to see Rafael’s pair of emerald eyes blinking at him.
On top of the carriage, Emhardt, who had been idly bored and a little drowsy, suddenly perked up upon hearing Rafael’s words. He poked his head out, looking wickedly with his one eye at the stiffened Fisher below, barely restraining from laughing aloud,
"...What?"
"What do you mean ’what’?" Rafael irritably stretched out her hand to pinch Fisher’s waist, twisting his muscles tightly as she suspiciously asked, "Ever since you returned, Moli’s demeanor has changed. In the past, my mother could notice my tail-fitting with just one look, which I found amazing. Now, seeing it on Moli, it’s blatantly obvious... Quickly, did you do something bad with her when you went to the Demon Dynasty?"
"...At the time, it was like this: because I had been drained of a large amount of Magic Power, I was somewhat weak, so..."
"Fisher, don’t you dare say Moli forced you!!"
Fisher had just opened his mouth when Rafael interrupted him, and along with her twisting grip on his waist, his expression became increasingly stiff.
He was truly innocent because at that time, Moli really did force him, and this was not a lie.
But if he really said that, it would make Fisher seem too irresponsible since at least at that time, he enjoyed it and did not resist, not entirely innocent...
Seeing Fisher’s tacit acknowledgment, Rafael inside the carriage became even more furious, puffing her cheeks and hitting Fisher’s back with her paws, making a "bang bang bang" sound.
"Sorry, Rafael."
"Sorry, my foot..."
Rafael angrily withdrew her hand, and after a moment of silence inside the carriage, she continued,
"Even before you left the Dragon Court with her, I had a premonition like this. Even if you restrained yourself because of the promise you made to me, Moli wasn’t going to hold back for my sake... She has wanted to devour you for four and a half years now, and she had already told me about this even before I knew her teacher was you."
Fisher raised an eyebrow, finding his chance at last, he quickly said,
"Then why did you still let her go with me..."
"...Wasn’t it because at the time, I thought the Dragon Court was really at a dead end."
Rafael pouted, but remembering the urgency of that time, faced with what seemed to be a hopeless war, her genuine thoughts were indeed like this.
As the Queen of the Dragon Court, she should accompany her country and people to the grave, but Fisher and Moli were unrelated to this. Instead of letting Fisher get entangled afterward, it was better to let him be with the familiar Moli and leave with her mother.
But now everything was over, and it was time to settle the unresolved conflicts from before.
Fisher also realized this, hence he appeared somewhat nervous.
But everything arrived gently, just like the clear weather and the barely noticeable breeze brushing against the cheeks now,
Rafael gazed at the back of Fisher ahead, touched her small belly, then gently hit Fisher’s back with her fist, asking softly and uncertainly,
"Fisher, can you promise me and the baby in my belly that you won’t have any contact with any new women in the future, can you do that?"
"..."
Fisher suddenly fell into silence, not because he couldn’t do it... To be honest, before coming back from the past, he had already decided to live a virtuous life and amend his ways.
What truly moved him at the moment was Rafael’s tone, perhaps questioning, perhaps uncertain, but not angry interrogation, nor was it an insistence on his promise.
In essence, it meant Fisher never gave her any real sense of security in this regard, and she could not judge Fisher solely for this either, just like when she first learned of Moli and Fisher’s relationship in the Dragon Court, her grievance exceeded her anger.
Is this all a plea?
Fisher wasn’t sure, but he just opened his mouth, turned back to look at Rafael’s eyes, and sincerely and earnestly said,
"I promise."
Generally speaking, the promises and vows of a bad man are like a dog’s bark, neither needing to be understood nor believed, but Rafael seemed willing to believe, willing to believe Fisher wouldn’t betray her trust again.
