Hikanka manipulated the appearance of Python’s spirit form.
Both Python and Hikanka were originally in a state where they couldn’t exert much power, so their sizes were small.
Seeing a figure reminiscent of Zigbert’s early years, Liche affectionately stroked Python.
“I’ll be back. Contractor.”
“Yeah. Take care.”
On Python’s back, several glass bottles were securely tied with strings.
The squirrel-like Hikanka climbed onto Python’s back, giving Liche a farewell greeting.
“You won’t have to see me for a while, right? If you ever want to cancel the contract with Python and make a contract with me, just let me know.”
Maybe he remembered something to say, because as Hikanka climbed Liche’s arm, he whispered in Python’s ear so that it wouldn’t be heard.
“…I hope to see you again the next time you come to the human world.”
Liche silently watched Hikanka.
After that, the two bid farewell to Liche once again and jumped out of the window.
Liche looked at the bright full moon beyond the open window.
The story she just heard from Hikanka lingered in her ears.
“Although we stopped their plan this time, I can’t guarantee that the last thing you know won’t come. Be careful, Rhetiom.”
Humans have short lives, right?
Hikanka, who said so, added the next words.
“What you experienced was even shorter.”
Three star icons.
Liche headed to Blake’s study.
In Liche’s hands, there was a book after visiting the library.
It wasn’t like before when Blake read picture books, but Liche sometimes had reading time next to Blake, even with books that only had words.
“You’re here.”
When Liche entered the study, Blake smiled slightly.
Next to his desk was an additional desk so that Liche could always come and sit.
Blake pulled out the chair of that desk and walked toward his excited daughter.
“Dad, I found an interesting book at the library today.”
“Really?”
“It says Yan read it, and the latter part is very exciting! Dad, have you read this?”
Liche showed the book she brought to Blake. Just when Blake reached out to take the book.
Knock, knock.
Someone knocked on the closed study door when Liche entered.
It was Paul.
Those who frequently visited could be distinguished by the sound of the knock alone.
When Blake told him to come in, housekeeper Paul opened the door and appeared.
Paul spoke to Blake with a troubled face.
“Um, my lord.”
“What’s the matter?”
“Marquis Sardia… has visited the castle.”
Sardia. Why would that guy?
Blake didn’t feel good about Marquis Sardia’s visit. His brow furrowed slightly.
‘…Zeke’s dad is coming to our house?’
Liche looked at Blake with a puzzled expression.
Except for when Zekebert came to pick her up before, she had never visited the Ludwick Marquisate.
Moreover, due to their inherent characteristics not matching, Ludwick and Sardia naturally had a hostile relationship.
‘Why did Marquis Sardia come?’
Then, did Zeke come along?
Liche thought she should go and greet with Blake. Blake, holding Liche’s hand, said,
“Liche, stay in the library.”
“Aren’t you going to greet Marquis Sardia?”
“It’s okay not to.”
Although Blake tried to lead Liche to the library, Marquis Sardia was faster.
Ignoring the instructions to wait in the reception room, he followed Paul and came all the way to Blake’s study.
A man with brown skin, muscles comparable to Python, and short red hair like grass entered the study behind Paul.
“Blake Ludwick! It’s been a long time!”
A hearty laugh echoed in the study.
Liche looked at Marquis Sardia curiously.
When she first and last saw him, she thought he would be a taciturn person like Zeke, but he seemed more talkative than expected.
‘Was it this meaning when people said Marquis Sardia is temperamental?’
According to people, Marquis Sardia is said to have a considerable temper, with different personalities in the morning and afternoon. There was also advice to be careful not to disturb him even with footsteps when he’s not in a good mood.
Fortunately, Marquis Sardia seemed to be in a good mood today.
He didn’t hide his excited emotions.
“Is this your daughter? Nice to meet you. I heard from the principal. Are you Rhetiom?”
So that was the reason. The sudden visit.
Blake made an unpleasant face.
Not many people knew that Liche was called Rhetiom.
The ability users and their close associates.
The problem was that the principal overheard the conversation between Marquis Sardia and Lord Hibetzman. Blake and Lord Hibetzman warned the principal.
“Don’t tell anyone.”
“Oh, I see. Only the ability users know about it, right?”
He seemed to have said that to Marquis Sardia, who was also an ability user.
Even if the principal didn’t seal his lips, sooner or later, Marquis Sardia would have heard Liche’s story.
It was not pleasant for him to come to the castle and try to meet Liche like this.
He tightened his fist quietly. Blake said to Marquis Sardia,
“I’m sorry to have come this far. It’s not a situation to welcome guests today. Please leave now.”

Short scene 2:
Wei Jing Mo stared intently at Feng Bai Su who was about to go out, wanting to say, “Be careful on the road.”
Before he could speak, Feng Bai Su suddenly bent down and bit his cheek.
