"Haha, how long will you keep staring at him? You need to focus on yourself from now on, you know?"
Lia puffed out her cheeks after hearing her father's teasing words and replied,
"Hmph! I was just seeing if he had left or not yet…"
As the car moved further and further, Rio's silhouette faded away from the rearview mirror of the car.
Seeing that she could not see him anymore, Lia felt a bit sad right away, but the locket given to her by Rio gave her warmth that reminded her of his presence, so she managed to calm her reluctant heart.
'To keep standing by his side… to not be a burden upon him, I must keep getting stronger; I can't always remain weak and reliant on him for everything…'
Lia was very self-aware from the beginning.
From the very start, she knew that Rio was a very talented person, and his talent shone brightly when he defeated Link time and time again!
