“Come to think of it, this is our first time eating breakfast together?”
“We’ve never had a chance.”
‘It would be fine if it happens more frequently from now on. I guess it would be okay if it happens sooner.’
The butler, who was deep in thought, was surprised at his own thoughts and nearly spilled the coffee he was serving.
Surprised by the unprecedented mistake, Eric looked at the butler who was flustered and stepped back.
“I’m sorry, my lord. I…”
“I’m fine, but are you okay?”
“Yes, yes. I was lost in thought. I apologize.”
“If you’re tired, take a break, butler.”
“Thank you, my lord.”
Eric, who was drinking coffee, caught Alicia’s eye.
“Why?”
“Are you okay?”
“Yeah. I’m fine. There were too many meetings and I’m tired. I’d rather fight monsters.”
“…”
“You weren’t worried, were you?”
At his words, Alicia closed her mouth with a wry expression.
‘How can I not worry? Isn’t it strange not to worry in such a situation?’
Besides, she couldn’t sleep because she was worried, and seeing him eating breakfast as if nothing happened without telling her he had arrived, made her feel choked up.
But seeing his smiling face, she felt her heart gradually loosen.
“I heard a little from the butler. You had a hard time, didn’t you?”
“Don’t worry about me. It’s my job.”
“Alright. But I think I might need to ask you for more.”
“Is it not over?”
“Not yet. We’re completely overhauling the military system itself. It’s going to take a while.”
“Ah.”
Watching Alicia nod seriously, Eric smiled.
But soon, Alicia noticed Eric glancing at the clock and she put down her knife and fork.
“Is that all you’re going to eat?”
When Eric asked, Alicia nodded her head.
In the end, Eric also put down his fork and knife.
Since he came this far, he’d wait until Alicia woke up.
Since he waited until she woke up, he would wait until she came down for breakfast.
Since he waited until she came down, he should wait until she finished eating breakfast.
That was what he thought, but Alicia already put down her fork.
“Do you have to go?”
“……Yeah.”
Eric smiled awkwardly.
Alicia also forced a smile, thinking that if she sent him off in a good mood, he would work comfortably.
“I can’t help it. I’ll see you off.”
Now that Alicia had even said that, there was no longer any excuse to stay.
Finally, Eric put down his coffee cup and got up from his seat.
“Then Alicia. I’ll leave it to you.”
“You, too, should take care.”
Eric looked more haggard and tired than the last time Alicia saw him.
He should take some more rest before going.
Seeing Alicia’s worried face, Eric asked teasingly.
“What’s wrong? Why the face? Are you upset?”
“Why? Can’t I be upset?”
Alicia pouted her lips.
Even if she said she was upset, it wouldn’t make any difference.
“I can’t. I’m upset.”
“Huh?”
She hadn’t heard him clearly as he muttered, and Eric didn’t repeat himself, instead he climbed onto his horse.
“So.”
“Eric.”
“Hmm?”
Hesitating, Alicia looked up at Eric and tentatively grabbed his jacket.
When it seemed like she was going to say something, Eric leaned his upper body down to bring his face closer. Alicia lifted up on her toes and whispered softly.
“Take care.”
“Mmhmm.”
“I’ll wait.”
“Mmhmm.”
“I’ll keep waiting here, so no matter how late you arrive, you must let me know.”
“……Mmhmm. I’ll do that. Keep waiting.”
Eric smiled and rode off on his horse.
She watched him until he disappeared from her sight, and even after he was gone, Alicia stood watching for a long time.
[Star Icon][Star Icon][Star Icon]About a week later, Alicia was sitting at her desk, turning the pages of a book with a serious expression.
Ever since she had encountered a monster, she had developed a sudden interest in it and borrowed a few books about magicians and monsters that the general public could borrow from the temple.
“What are you reading so seriously?”
Alicia startled, looking up to see Eric standing there with a smile.
She jumped up from her seat in a delight.
“Eric. When did you get here?”
“Just now. I came straight here as soon as I arrived. I remembered how upset you were last time.”
“Ugh. When did I get upset again?”
Looking at Alicia denying it as if she were embarrassed, Eric laughed and approached the desk, scanning the titles of the books she had been reading.
“You’re interested in this? ‘The History of Magic and Divination? The Misconceptions and Truths about Wizards?'”
“After going through this incident, I have a lot of questions.”
“Hmm. So, did you find anything interesting?”
“It just made me more curious.”
“What about?”
“It’s weird that magic, which uses magic as a medium, and divination, which borrows the power of demons, are different depending on whether they use language or a formula.”
“You’re right. Despite the incident 500 years ago, they just didn’t want to give up the useful power of magic.”
Eric responded cynically with a smirk.
“That being said, I have something important to tell you.”
“What is it?”
“Shall we sit over there for a moment? I asked the butler to bring some tea.”
“Alright.”
Alicia got up from her desk and sat down on the sofa across from Eric.
“What is it? It’s making me nervous.”
Eric laughed awkwardly, then opened his mouth with a serious expression.
“I’m leaving.”

When Yu Shu was diagnosed with pregnancy, Yan Jin stared at his belly for a long time.
Covering his stomach, he muttered gloomily, “If you don’t like it, I’ll go get an abortion.”
“It’s not that I don’t like it.” Yan Jin hugged Yu Shu and said softly, “I just feel like I’m not human.”
Yu Shu comforted Yan Jin, “I was already an adult when we got together.”
Yan Jin hesitated, “But you won’t be of legal marriageable age even after giving birth to the child.”
At the same time, a flood of bullet comments appeared in the live streaming room that the two couldn’t see.
