The snowy field was trampled relentlessly by small footprints.
Today, Rachel’s steps were faster. Zion was breathing heavily while he followed her.
“Ruby, where are we going? Sister told us to play around here…”
At Zion’s remarks, Rachel ceased walking.
Argh! He almost crashed onto Rachel’s back. Zion stopped his steps quickly.
“What the.” Zion grumbled a little.
“Zion.”
Rachel sounded more subdued today. Zion gazed at her, and she slowly turned around.
When the corners of her mouth raised, her appearance, the one similar to the mister from earlier, stood out even more.
Rachel said in a clear voice.
“I’ll show you something you like.”
“Something I like…?”
Zion tilted his head as if it was difficult to understand. There were few things he liked.
His one and only sister, Eve, the meat stew his sister makes, when his sister pats his head, hitting the trees with the fruits his sister froze, and something warm.
That was all.
Watching Zion, who was immersed in his thoughts, Rachel breathed out a frustrated sigh.
Then she held out her little hand in front of Zion.
As if it had been waiting, flames began to dance on her palms.
Zion’s face was colored with surprise at the warmth that touched his face.
“This is it!”
Zion exclaimed in admiration.
It was Rachel’s specialty; fire magic.
It had been a few days before that Zion had noticed Rachel’s magic. It was after his sister went out to sell herbs. As his surroundings felt warm, Zion slowly opened his eyes. He caught Rachel crouched down in front of the fireplace.
It was when he was about to call Rachel, rubbing his half-asleep eyes.
“....!”
A fire blazed in Rachel’s hand. It was so quick that he might not have seen it if he blinked.
Zion frowned.
"That should be enough."
Rachel flicked her hands like a laborer with ten years of experience. Then, she got up to go back to bed.
"Did you see it?"
Zion and her eyes met.
She was found out. Rachel clicked her tongue imperceptibly. She was shivering in the cold, so she revived the embers, but she made a mistake.
If she knew this would happen, she would have left it alone.
"What just happened?"
Sure enough, Zion stuck close to Rachel and asked her to do it one more time.
“What was that just now?”
“Huh? What’s what?”
“Show me one more time.”
“Didn’t you just have a dream?”
“Then, to my sister….!”
“I’ll show it to you, so don’t tell your sister.”
Thus, the agreement between the two children was struck. Rachel showed Zion her magic under the condition that he didn’t tell Eve.
In truth, Zion had to beg tons of times before he was able to see it.
Rachel didn’t seem to like her fire much.
But this time, Rachel ignited her fire first.
He didn’t even ask for it!
Zion looked at Rachel with excitement, like a child before a feast.
“Ruby’s fire is amazing. It’s really warm!”
“Is it really warm?”
“Yeah. It doesn’t vanish easily, and most of all…”
Zion extended his hand out carefully. Before he could reach the flames, it subsided and shrunk.
Zion’s eyes shone more brightly.
“This fire, I think it knows me!”
“........”
What should she do with this pure soul? Rachel sighed. No, it was a relief. She can use this fire as bait to coax Zion.
Let’s get started.
As she thought so, she put out the fire she had made in her hand.
When the warm temperature disappeared and cold wind blew again, Zion shuddered with a tearful face.
“It’s cold…”
“It’s very cold in the North, isn’t it?”
“Yeah. It’s too cold. I always ask my sister to go somewhere warm, but she says no.”
“Why? You can move somewhere warm. For example, the South.”
Rachel smiled as if she knew nothing.
Zion did not answer, but he stared at Rachel’s hand. That means he’ll only give his answer if she lights a fire.
‘At times like this, I’m like my brother.’
In the end, Rachel raised her hand again and created a small flame.
Zion’s face was tinged with joy.
“Now, answer.”
“Yeah. My sister said she has to raise a lot of money here,” Zion answered sharply.
“Money?”
“Yes. We have to save a lot of money before we can move.”
Move? Rachel’s eyes darkened.
As if responding to her emotions, the flame on her hand grew even bigger.
Wow! The ignorant and excited Zion jumped and added, “Right. And she said she has to save a lot to buy a castle!”
“A castle?”
“Yes!”
Does Sister want to live in a castle?
Rachel looked up. Her sister seemed to want to have a lot of things.
Is this why she needed a lot of money?
‘Well then, I can give it all as a gift.’
Rachel organized her sister’s wishes in her head.
- A handsome man
- Last name
- Lots of money
- Move to warm place
‘Huh?’
Rachel smiled a little. No matter how much she thought about it, her brother was the only one who could satisfy all of this.
Her little smile grew insipid.
As her emotions grew, her flames intensified.
Zion’s shouts also grew.
Rachel, who had stopped smiling, blinked and said naturally.
“There’s a way to solve all of Sister’s wishes.”
“Really?”
“Yes. Just follow the handsome older brother who came earlier.”
“Really? Then can he give Sister everything she wants?”
“Yes. That’s right.”
“He’s amazing!”
“Right? If that brother and your sister get close, she’ll probably get what she wants.”
“Wow!”
Zion’s blue eyes twinkled. Just imagining his sister’s face tinged with delight seemed to make him feel like he was on cloud nine.
Rachel, who had a flushed face along with Zion, paused.
“Zion.”
“Huh?”
“I know you’re in a good mood, but hide your ears.”
Zion’s eyes widened at her clear words. He raised both his hands and pressed his head hastily. At the touch of his wolf ears, Zion made a terrified sound without realizing it.
“You can’t go to Sister!”
“Yeah. I know, so hide your tail,” Rachel said, without a fire in her hand.
Zion hid his wolf traits with a frown. He ran to Rachel’s side.
Rachel was bent over, gathering snow. However, the heat from her hands melted it helplessly.
Zion sat close to Rachel with pouting lips.
“You’re not going to tell Sister, are you?”
“No.”
“Really?”
“Should I tell her?”
“........”
Zion shut his mouth tight. Rachel raised herself with a smirk.
As expected, it was not possible to have a snowball fight. She wished she could make ice like Sister back then. Rachel thought so and started walking back to the cabin.
“Don’t tell her! Really!”
“Okay.”
“Do you promise?”
“If you promise that you won’t hate him.”
“Okay!”
Zion didn’t seem to understand the promise he made.
“You have to keep your promise.”
Rachel smiled softly as she watched the cute wolf approaching her.
