Hearing this, Mera couldn't help but feel a bit dejected, but she quickly pulled herself together, pulling Kain's head down to rest on her lap.
Feeling the softness pressed against the back of his neck, Kain was a bit dazed for a moment, then Mera spoke.
"Don't you see how tired you are? Sheesh, I didn't think that game would last so long."
Mera clicked her tongue; initially, she thought the resource distribution game would only last a few hours, but it ended up lasting over a day, and she didn't think Kain and the others had any time to rest during it.
"True enough."
He smiled gently, then closed his eyes, showing absolute trust.
Twenty-five hours without rest, without food or water, only intense mental concentration and a battle of wits—it was certainly no easy challenge.
Fortunately, it was all over.
Seeing that Kain's breathing had become light and rhythmic, proving he was asleep, a smile appeared in Mera's eyes as she leaned down and lightly kissed his forehead.
