"Mom, I want to go."
"... A Tsuna..." Nana's fingers holding the letter tightened slightly, and her voice began to tremble slightly. A trace of pain and despair appeared in her warm brown eyes that were always gentle and kind. For a moment, Tsuna almost thought he was about to be convinced by his sad mother.
After a long time, Sawada Nana reluctantly returned to normal, but her face was pale and her voice was tired.
"You know everything..."
The boy pursed his lips and stopped looking into his mother's eyes. His long and curly eyelashes drooped lightly, like the down feathers of a young bird.
Then he heard his own voice, gentle and calm, with a hint of firmness that could not be refused——
"I want to become a magician, but no matter what I do, I can't catch up in my father's footsteps..."
"At least, I want to know what kind of world it is that would make him willing to leave you and me to protect it."
