“What’s that noise?”
Ian looked around in surprise, but the warehouse was eerily quiet.
[But the floor has been restored.]This time, a girl’s voice.
Immediately locating the voice that lingered in his mind, Ian turned his gaze to one spot. It was a mirror.
He thought it still appeared black and reflected nothing, but he was wrong. Something was inside someone’s shadow. Ian stared at the boundary of the quivering shadow near the frame of the mirror. The view was from below, looking up.
The owner of the shadow moved, and the slightly visible face resembled a squirrel.
The squirrel seemed to be standing on something connected to the mirror.
“It’s that squirrel.”
A few months ago, he had seen the squirrel in the mirror. After seeing it for the first time, he occasionally visited the mirror with the expectation that he might see it again but was never able to.
This time, he could see it.
Ian approached the mirror with a feeling of joy. Then he witnessed an unbelievable scene.
[Restoration ability alone is not enough. Can’t you heal? Hypnotic ability would also be good. Considering that guy hasn’t appeared for over a week, it seems he’s fallen asleep again due to human realm side effects. So much so that he can’t even bring out a thought form. If there’s hypnotic ability in a star fragment, he could sleep forever[—].]“The squirrel is talking.”
Ah, surprised by his own words, Ian covered his mouth with his hand. But it was already too late. It was quiet on the other side of the mirror, possibly because his voice was heard.
[I, I want to go.]The trembling voice of the girl, and the sound of walking feet were heard.
The squirrel looked down for a moment with its head bowed. Then it yelled towards the girl.
[Come with me!]“W, wait……!”
The squirrel’s feet moved away from the mirror. Ian hurriedly spoke, but the mirror returned to its previous state and showed nothing.
Ian clenched his fists in the air with disappointment. Only the ungraspable air escaped from his hand.
[Are you there, on that side……?]The girl’s voice from the mirror was heard again a day later.
(This is a time delimiter.)
A day before Riche spoke to Ian in the mirror.
Riche was walking to Madam Mishel’s lesson after reading a picture book with Blake, with the fully recovered Ziegbert following her.
‘A child?’
[Yes, exactly.]Aware of Ziegbert, Riche conversed with Pythons in her mind. The topic was what had happened that morning at the library when she went to restore the floor.
[There was a child in the mirror. A child with eyes resembling that brat.]Pythons puffed up its fur.
The fact that the child with golden eyes was the identity of the ghost in the mirror, Riche had to know even though she wasn’t told.
‘It’s not that star, is it?’
[No. If it were that brat, I would have recognized it immediately. I didn’t feel anything. It could just be a child with golden eyes, but it wasn’t ordinary. So you take a look next time. I think they might be an ability user.]“…….”
Riche nodded, lightly biting her lips as if tense.
Even if Pythons had seen the child, the unknown existence in the mirror was still frightening.
Pythons climbed onto Riche’s shoulder.
Last night was a full moon. Thanks to visiting the lakeside, Pythons had released the energy accumulated from the battle with Hickencaw and was in high spirits.
[But can’t he talk? He heard that guy call you Letium in the treatment room. What are you going to do if he talks to someone?]Pythons was referring to Ziegbert walking beside them.
Riche was also troubled by that aspect.
He surely must have heard their conversation with Hakencaw.
When she indirectly asked about that day, Ziegbert had no reaction other than a few wolf howls.
[Does he not know Letium because he’s young?]Pythons’ words were a possibility.
If he had spent most of his childhood in his beast form, he might not have been educated about common knowledge like other noble children.
Had not Madame Michel done the same? In Serdiya, a capable person stabilizes their abilities around the age of nine and takes on a human form.
Afterwards, they were said to grow rapidly by utilizing what they had seen and heard.
“…….”
Riche paused for a moment in thought.
Now that the injury he had sustained in the monster’s forest had healed, Ziegbert would soon return to his original home.
‘It won’t be natural for the three of us to be together like now, will it?’
Since the incident in the examination room, there had been at least one guard hiding near Riche. It was Blake’s order.
However, the conversation that was about to take place should not be overheard by anyone.
Riche lowered her presence with Python’s perception manipulation ability, and then crouched down in front of Ziegbert.
“Ziegbert.”
“….Woof.”
Wagging his tail, Ziegbert was startled by the sound of his name, and his eyes widened. Then, after a brief moment of thought, he made a small sound as if to respond.
“I know who you are. You know who I am, don’t you?”
[Ah, a straightforward question.]My Ex-Girlfriend Is The Regent In The Female-dominant World (Male lead transmigrates to the matriarchal world)
Two years ago, Gu Sui picked up a homeless woman in ancient costume from the street.
Apart from occasionally claiming to be a princess from a female-dominant country due to illness, her figure, appearance, intelligence, and martial arts skills were impeccable.
Naturally evolving from roommates to girlfriends, as time went on, Gu Sui found it increasingly difficult to tolerate her queen syndrome.
“Mu Jiulu, can you stop controlling me inside and out? Let’s break up.”
Gu Sui made a breakup call, and since then, he couldn’t find any trace of her.
A year later, Gu Sui, who was planning to move, woke up the next day and found himself in a different place.
“Young Master, today is the day you choose your Wife-master through martial arts competition at Jade Dew Pavilion. Please get up quickly.”
Gu Sui: Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?
As the only son of a general’s mansion in a female-dominant dynasty, the young empress personally issued a decree allowing Gu Sui to select his Wife-master through martial arts competition. Whoever could defeat him could marry him.
Gu Sui: “……”
He didn’t inherit the original owner’s martial prowess, so anyone could defeat him! And what the hell is a Wife-master?
Forced to come to Jade Dew Pavilion, the densely packed women below made Gu Sui’s agoraphobia act up, and his face was full of resistance.
Until he saw the Regent sitting on the second floor, with a smile on the corner of her lips, her eyes wicked and nonchalant.
Hmm… she looked a little familiar.
It turned out that the Regent also found him a little familiar.
Mu Jiulu fiddled with her bone clasp, her deep gaze locked on the man who was out of place in this world.
“Finally, I found you.”
