[[ Master... ]]

[[ "Just follow them. That one, and everyone else he meets. Don\'t miss a single one, Celes." ]]

My voice was grave, and the stern tone was all it needed for her to understand these emotions.

I was calm because of the dynamic heart but, if it didn\'t start at the right time, I knew a thick bloodlust would be covering this entire hallway.

[[ Ok... master. ]]

There was hesitation in her eyes but, she understood this order and didn\'t ask anything else.

I was returning from the training grounds after giving the vice-captain Victor some instructions and he... was a nice person.

He was more than-, damn...

Stopping for a moment and leaning against the right wall painted in white and melon green, I sighed deeply.

"Haa..."

This sigh was sudden and deep, which surprised the maids secretly looking at me from a distance.

They were young, but still, they were adults, for nature\'s sake!

At least, leave me alone for now...

Smiling at them and waving my hand, I surprised them, and the ladies just ran away to the opposite side.

After sensing the surroundings, leaning my head on the wall once again, I took some deep breaths.

\'Haaa... I knew we would see them soon, but to think it would be this soon.\'

In this world, they were called [Rakshasa]. The demonic humans had made a contract with demons after selling their souls.

These bunches were pure lunatics, people I genuinely despised.

Even more than demons, probably because they... destroyed nature and killed others with pure knowledge of what they were doing while wanting to spread chaos.

The unsightly pests of nature and people who had long forsaken humanity.

[Rakshasa], though the word itself meant creatures who can change forms and trick other creatures and kill them in most cases, these humans who had sold their souls in return for power were no different from that bastard demon marquis.

This bunch, even if there could be some, and I mean a minuscule majority who were \'good\' among them, most of these bastards, including the ones Celes\'s clone has just encountered, were pure evil.

They killed and destroyed nature, made sacrifices to summon the demons to this world, and worse things that even I didn\'t want to say.

Just like right now... I didn\'t want Celes to see this side of humanity but, these bastards were just demons in human skin.

I saw with her eyes what she was seeing, and it was just in the middle of the capital too.

What she saw, what I didn\'t want my lovely Celes to see, was a horrible scene and something I would explain with the word \'red\'.

In the back street of one of the normal-looking streets of the capital, a bloodbath had occurred out of nowhere.

It was a normal-looking back street with some families living in normal, small houses, children playing around on the roads, their moms or dads looking at them warmly, and this clone of Celes was watching everything from a pole at the end of this street.

This was just like many other streets and Celes was watching these things, so I didn\'t have to worry about anything and was just plotting things that I will be doing in the future.

But then, I felt the sudden dread, anger, and fear from Celes and, without saying anything, just closed my eyes to see what she was seeing.

And as the view entered my eyes, just like her... I fell speechless.

The moment I started seeing, there was a strong magic barrier that distorted vision, blocked sound, and decreased senses.

And all that, for powerless, weak humans.

They were three people, wearing black robes that covered their faces.

Their eyes were pure black, filled with crazy blood thirst, and boredom.

And though they were all mages, none of them used magic to massacre the weak beings.

There were adults, children, and elders, and they were all... happy families.

\'Those damn bastards...\'

I wasn\'t angry at how they just obliterated those innocent people but, why did they have to do that before my dear Celes, who was just starting to see the outside world?!

Those damn bastards...

"Haaa... yes, grandpa Zhen. I was on the way. Let\'s go..."

He was still using his passive concealment but, (: Scan) was on right now so he couldn\'t escape the range of detection even though he was at the end of the hallway.

I knew he was surprised to see me like that, but he didn\'t ask why I was standing like that.

I knew he saw I was worried, but the way I spoke and my clear voice was enough to reassure him that I was alright.

[[ "Sorry Celes. They were bad people but, sadly, many humans do stuff like that too.

Maybe it was just the minimum that they did it, just killing everyone painlessly... even though it was their goddamn fun.

Some monsters in human skin do worse, and I know even though you don\'t feel the same emotions as us humans, I know you could feel mine.

You have lived with me all this time and maybe you have a different perspective of humans.

All the humans you have met until now were good people, but humans, as a general species, are creatures far worse than the beasts we used to fight.

Humans... are the worst.

I never wanted you to see this side this early, and maybe we would see worse, dear Celes but, it\'s the truth and you had to see this one day anyway.

But, well, try to learn the difference between not just the good and bad but also the people like me and the warm family members and those demon bastards.

Haaa... Celes..." ]]

[[ You don\'t have to say sorry master. It\'s good I saw these different kinds of beings.

Don\'t worry~ master~! I\'m fine~! ]]

Just what the forever cheerful Celes would say. She was amazing.

Taking a deep breath and washing away this difficult feeling and face, I started walking toward the dining hall again.

Humans... are questionable creatures.

It was lunchtime and today, grandma and dad were the ones to make this special lunch.

And tomorrow will be my turn for lunch and maybe dinner too.

Well, this house was big, and many people lived there. And... I wanted to make something for everyone here.

A special treat from me.

And maybe it would only be for a lunch, but I would be making something for everyone.

Something knights and mages would like alike.

Well, I had everything planned for that one and just telling them would be enough.

I was prepared to do everything on my own, but I knew the two of them. Maybe Rein and Anna too would naturally want to help me.

Well... I had a date before that one.

Opening the big gate of the dining hall, as soon as I entered the place, a delightful aroma attacked my nostrils.

"Oh-hoho-ho-ho~ amazing! What did you make, grandma?! Dad?"

And everyone chuckled at that weird voice.

"That... was new." Rein \'complemented\' with a weird look on her face as she fed Anna a spoon full of cheesecake.

But the delicious aroma that had bombarded my nostrils was something entirely different from the cake.

And although I knew what this was... this version, the special ingredients, and with how much care they made this was amazing~!

Anna was chuckling at that one, and everyone was the same.

Mom even almost choked while controlling her laugh and Carla literary sprayed the water on her fourth empty plate.

"Hahaha! Eon~! Please say that again~. Haha~!"

My genuine surprise was fun for this big sister of mine.

Even the maker of this wonderful food can\'t help but laugh at this behavior.

And in all this sudden laughter, the most surprised was my dear grandpa Zhen, the only one who saw me with a difficult expression a moment ago.

And he can\'t help his wide eyes and astonished expression.

Yes, I know I\'m good with these things and all but, I\'m genuinely surprised.

Looking at grandmother and dad who sat at the far end of this table, with the kitchen open door behind them, I couldn\'t help my astonishment.

"A gratin with some special ingredients? A mushroom maybe?

And it\'s cheese, without a doubt.

And of course~. The secret ingredient..."

We three looked at each other and, even though they were surprised by my natural deduction, they had to say this one with me.

"Lots of love~."

The three of us said at once and others couldn\'t help but chuckle at our words.

And not just words, they couldn\'t help but chuckle at our genuinely delightful behavior, too.

Even dad and grandma who said that to me couldn\'t help but laugh while covering their mouths at this.

Shaking my head while still smiling, I walked forward and set down on one of the chairs... or more precisely, just on the same side as Rein.

Mom was on my left after leaving a chair empty while my dear first aunt set on the right side while leaving a chair.

This dining table was quite big, so it was understandable they would sit some distance away but, this setting was quite suspicious.

Not that I had any intention of thinking too deeply about this one.

They had predicted I would sit here of all places and the smirk on their faces was quite enjoyable, even for me.

Mom was smirking, and eating this delicious-looking food but, she suddenly remembered something and put her knife and fork down.

She was as elegant while eating as she had always been and, after wiping off her mouth with a napkin, she tapped on her wrist.

\'That brings backs memories...\'

Mom\'s special artifact with enormous storage.

An artifact with far greater storage capacity as well as the special ability to store a large number of other artifacts.

This had always been something that fascinated me and though back then, I couldn\'t see its details, now, I had these eyes.

\'Three eyes.\'

I used my skill as mom took out two cards from this purple bracelet with a golden gem embedded in it.

And before I could look at those cards and her, I saw the description window of this bracelet, and I… couldn\'t help but gasp in surprise.
