The sound of slow breathing was heard in the dark room, lit only by the moonlight coming through the window, Eriu, who was daydreaming, turned his head next to him, staring intently at the boy who was sleeping peacefully.
"..." All Eriu could think about was not getting caught.
Today, Quella had given him a perfume that was supposed to disguise smells. To avoid being caught by Louise, Eriu deliberately sprayed the perfume on himself and Louise. Louise's reaction to the smell was that it was pungent.
This meant that if he sprayed it everywhere, the smell would spread slowly and Louise would not notice that he was gone.
The problem was the one person next to him. That was all.
Eriu slowly got up from the bed, he even held his breath before he walked in front of Eros. Eros closed his eyes and hugged his stuffed bunny, a doll named Eri.
It felt strange to call a doll by his name.
'Eye...' It is said that when people sleep, their eyes move.
Eriu brought his finger to the front of his eyelid and began to touch it. Within 5 seconds, Eriu withdrew his hand and went straight to the window. A long rope was thrown out of the window. Wearing gloves, Eriu grabbed the rope and jumped out of the window. Very carefully, he began to close the window until it was silent.
"Hehehe..." Eriu chuckled softly, feeling very proud of himself. After all, his life was in the middle of the road now and he really needed those ingredients.
Right now, he wanted to make a potion that could give him temporary strength, and that's why he needed wild mushrooms that grew in the forest. If he hadn't found Rain Flower that day, he wouldn't have thought of going out at this time of night. But unfortunately, he found it!
Eriu, who went into the forest, did not notice the boy who was now in the garden in the backyard.
"Caught you." Eros smiled softly and started to follow Eriu from behind without Eriu noticing.

"You know..." Eriu turned to his side where the boy named Fate was staring back at him. "Unfortunately, I don't know," Fate replied in the same tone as Eriu.
"No, I don't mean that. I mean it's like this..."
"Like this?"
Eriu closed Fate's mouth immediately, "You shut up for a while, let me finish my sentence."
Fate, who had been silent for a while, began to slowly nod his head. Eriu started to remove his hand from Fate's mouth, "Erm, so people say that when you sleep, your eyes move!"
"..."
"So... I know that you... He-he..."
"Oh." Fate pressed his lips together, annoyed that he had been deceived by the person in front of him. ... Well, we don't know how things will change.

"They're so annoying..." Noah grumbled in front of Eriu, who was also annoyed by Noah's story.
"You're right, they are assholes."
"...Assholes!?" Noah closed her mouth at what was said, unlike the one whose mouth could not be closed.
"'Yup, assholes, scum bastards with no sense of self and no use for society! What are they doing, bullying children? Even Satan won't go near them."
While Eriu was saying such long-winded nonsense, Noah looked at the person behind Eriu. Amiley was smiling broadly. "...If your mother heard what you're saying right now, she would punish you right away." Eriu, who heard Amiley's voice, slowly turned around.
"Hehe, that... please don't."
Just like their past portraits, silly and stupid.
"Arghh, I want to strangle her!" Ariadne squeezed her hair until Amiley could hear the sound of the hair screaming with each squeeze.
"Okay, tomorrow I'll strangle her! I won't go back on my word!"
Just as Ariadne had said, she strangled the instructor who had deliberately insulted her in front of the other children.
But it was fun.

The snow-white hair youth stared at the jumbo meal in front of him. His yellow eyes blinked, he didn't know how to react.
"Little brother, eat up, you're as skinny as an ant! I don't care if you're not as tall as the sky and as wise as the ocean, I just want you to gain weight!"
"Yes! Your sister is right, if you're so skinny, no woman will want to marry you!"
"Huu, my nephew is so pathetic... if you can't find love, just find me, I'll help you..."
They weren't wrong, he was the shortest of his siblings, and he was often rejected by the girls in his village when it came to marriage.
But who knew that in the end, he was the only one who survived death. Even his height didn't matter anymore. The reason was that he was married and had children!
"Dad, how tall are you?" The boy who had his features asked in front of him, with another boy next to him looking at him.
"Um? 172 cm."
Hearing his answer, the boy with his facial features immediately turned his head to the other side, "Look, I must be the same height as my dad, which means I'll be taller than you in the future!"
"Why are you so sure? You don't even know my height in the future."
"I know!"
"You know? I know you like me too, but don't ask people to find out my height in the future..."
"! Who told you that I like you!? Are you dreaming!?"
"No, I'm awake. Oh, and that time you said you liked me yourself."
"Hey! You're the one who told me to say that!" The boy who had his features held his head as if to tease him for a moment. Unfortunately, he couldn't see, he only knew what his son's face looked like from his wife.
The young man who had become a father immediately hit the boy's head, which was about to explode.
"Eri, stop it, you're an adult and Eros shouldn't tease him. If mom finds out what happened now, I can't help you guys."
"Make up, I will treat you if you guys make up."
Sister, now I know what you mean. It doesn't matter if I'm not as high as the sky or as wise as the ocean, life should be as calm as when the sea dances quietly and as angry as when the moon looks for a storm.
All the teachings from you are precious. It really is.
