"This is my room."

Humility opened the door and led the two of them inside.

​​

"Woah!"

Lawrend was speechless seeing her 'room'.

The room was not a room. It was a whole apartment. The room they entered into was just the living room. It was very spacious. It was at least as big as Aleshia's room, but you have to remember that this is just the living room.

"This is a room?"

Lawrend asked Humility in shock.

"It's quite big."

Kenova murmured beside Lawrend.

You have to remember that this was supposed to be her 'room' in this inn. It's more like an apartment for her.

"I like this space."

Humility grabbed Lawrend's hand and pulled him with her. She showed him her different rooms while Kenova followed along in curiosity.

After a while, she finally finished giving the two of them a house tour.

"Lawrend, let's study here."

Humility said to Lawrend as they stood in the living room.

"Sure."

And thus, Lawrend started explaining to the two of them his understanding of his solution to the theory. Three hours passed before they finished.

"Thank you for your teachings today, Lawrend! I'll surely repay you for this."

Kenova bowed to Lawrend respectfully. He already sees Lawrend not as a peer, but as a respectable teacher.

"You're not bad yourself. I learned a lot from your ideas."

Lawrend replied with a satisfied smile on his face.

"Thank you too, Ms. Humility."

Kenova bowed to Humility humbly.

"Bye."

Humility bid her farewell. Only then did Kenova leave. The two were left alone inside her room/apartment.

"Lawrend, I'm sorry if I sounded too dumb for you… I'm not that good academically."

Humility said to Lawrend apologetically.

Whenever Lawrend explained a part of the theory, her mind swam, and she couldn't keep up with him. Lawrend had to explain it to her again. She felt dumb throughout their discussion. Especially since Kenova is also smart.

"Hahahaha. I think you were cute when you panicked earlier."

Lawrend laughed seeing her look so serious. He didn't really take it to heart. In fact, teaching someone helped him solidify his understanding.

He could still picture her reaction earlier when her brain was overloaded with information. She blinked her eyes repeatedly, and her mouth was left hanging open while she turned her head alternately at the two of them.

"C-Cute!?"

Humility's face blushed hearing Lawrend's words.

"Anyways, I have to go too. See you, Humility."

Lawrend bid his farewell to her.

"A-Ah, yes! Goodbye, Lawrend."

Humility reacted in a fluster as Lawrend left. She watched him leave in a daze.

Meanwhile, Lawrend stretched his arms after leaving Humility's room/apartment.

"I think I need some exercise."

Lawrend said to himself with a smile. He then headed to Aleshia's room.

"Master! You're back!"

Elena exclaimed happily seeing Lawrend enter the room. His mana signature was also accepted by the lock which is why he could unlock the door.

"I'm back, Elena."

Lawrend smiled at her.

Aleshia: "Master!"

Aezel: "Master!"

Ella: "Young Master!"

Lawrend's maids greeted him with a bow.

"I'm back, Aleshia. I'm back, Aezel. I'm back Ella."

Lawrend greeted them one by one.

"Master, what did you do with that girl from earlier?"

Aleshia asked Lawrend sharply.

"We just had a study session with Kenova."

Lawrend replied to her.

"Was that all?"

Aleshia asked him suspiciously.

"What? Do you think I'm gonna have a threesome with some girl and a man I don't know that well?"

Lawrend asked her with a raised eyebrow.

"N-No… Forgive me, Master! I've been too distrustful."

Aleshia bent her body and bowed to Lawrend.

"Hmph."

Lawrend snorted at her.

Aleshia raised her body and stared at Lawrend fearfully as her body shook nervously.

"I'm kidding. I just wanted to see what it would be like to act like a strict young master."

Lawrend said to her with a smile.

"Master…"

Aleshia raised her body, and her eyes shone happily.

"Master, I want to say that I don't mind if you act like that to me. I want to be abused..."

Aezel said to him with a seductive gaze.

Aleshia: "..."

Elena: "..."

Ella: "..."

Nimela, who just entered the room: "..."

"Oh, Nimnim, you're here."

Aleshia called out to Nimela. She broke the weird atmosphere Aezel created.

"Big Sister, Sister Feli cried when she ate the food my chef made."

Nimela said to Aleshia with a frown.

"Huh? Alright, I'm going there."

Aleshia nodded her head seriously.

"Master, I have to go."

Aleshia turned to Lawrend and said to him.

"Wait, I'm going with you."

Lawrend said to her. He got worried about Feli sinc ehe hadn't seen her in a while.

"Okay, Master."

Aleshia nodded her head.

Aezel: "Take care, Master."

Elena: "Take care~"

Ella: "Take care, Young Master."

They bid farewell to Lawrend.

"Mhm."

Lawrend nodded his head at them before he left the room with Aleshia and Nimela.

"It feels nice greeting Master when he comes back and wishing him well when he leaves."

Elena opened her mouth and said as they all stared at the door.

"Fufufu. That's true."

Aezel laughed lightly and said to her.

"Young Master is the best."

Ella added with a smile on her face.

…

"Fefe, are you okay?"

Aleshia asked Feli after they entered the kitchen. Several chefs were busy cooking inside it.

Feli was full of tears and snot when Aleshia saw her.

"Big Sister! I miss my Elder Sister!"

Feli embraced Aleshia as soon as she saw her.

"It's fine. I understand. Why do you miss your Elder Sister?"

Aleshia rubbed Feli's back.

"I… I ate this Potato Soup, and… and I couldn't help but remember E-Elder Sister cooking it for me."

Feli said to Aleshia between tears and sobs.

"Hmmm… What kind of person is your sister like?"

Aleshia asked Feli as she continued rubbing her back.

"She's nice. She can cook, and she spoils me…"

Feli replied to Aleshia, downcast.

"Feli, where do you live?"

Lawrend suddenly asked her. He felt sad seeing her like that. He should fulfill her promise to her soon.

"Me? Hmm… I think it's called Yttervia Forest."

Feli replied to him.

"Thank you, Feli. I'll start asking around about your Elder Sister. I'm sorry I didn't do this sooner."

Lawrend crouched down and said to her with a warm smile.
