" So, what do you want to talk about, Mira?"

  Ray was currently in a cafe with Mira. He had carried Emi back to the Kyouko's office, and after making sure she was safe with Kyouko, Ray quickly left and went in Mira's direction.

  " Emm… It's about this. Actually, I still remember everything we did in that strange world, and somehow I couldn't get you out of my mind. However, I know that I still love Ethan. Thus I came here to clarify our relationship." Mira said while still dodging Ray's eyes.

  " Oh, so it's about this."

  Actually, it was not that unexpected, but Ray was still a bit disappointed when hearing his woman had a feeling toward another man.

  " If you still have some feelings toward Ethan, then it's okay. You can treat our relations just like a one-night stand."

  It would be a lie if Ray said that he would not really mind it. But, he knows rushing it too much would only be counterproductive. Thus what he needed to do right now was slowly alleviate Mira's love for Ethan.

  Hearing Ray's words. Mira's expression changed a lot. At first, it was happy, then turned a bit disappointed, but then it stuck on like she wanted to say something but had no courage to do it.

  " Emmm…"

  " Is it about Ethan, don't worry. I'll tell the city lord to release him. Either way, I do think without even me interfering, the city lord would soon release him because of the pressure of your friend's family."

  " Then all I could say is thank you. But what about that old man?"

  " By saying old man, is it about that old man Rei?"

  Ray asked with a smirk, to which Mira only responded with a nod. It seems old man Rei has left a severe trauma on her.

  And seeing this, Ray's smirk got even wider.

  " Don't worry. Is it about that promise with that old man? Hehe, actually…"

  Ray transformed into Old man Rei for a moment and quickly changed back into his handsome form. He had talked to Aina about this on the way here, and Ainda agreed to lend him the appearance-changing item just this one time to resolve all the misunderstandings with Mira.

  " See, it was all me. You don't need to worry that an ugly old man has stolen your first kiss. At least, it was me, the handsome and super talented Ray."

  All this realization made Mira felt his brain was kicked to the trash. In fact, an appearance change skill was not impossible since the world has changed much because of the arrival of those spirit beasts. And soon, that feeling shifted into one of gratitude. Even though she felt a bit sad that she wasn't able to give her first time to Ethan, giving it to Ray didn't seem so bad anymore.

  " Well, that's all then. But, could I have a request to you?"

  " Emm, if it's not too much, then I would definitely agree," Mira said without thinking too much.

  She had owed Ray for the Ethan's thing, and since her heart now also had some feeling for Ray, the rejection for Ray was even smaller.

  " Actually, it's about this. Even if it was short, you are still my woman for that time we are in the strange world. So, can I kiss you one more time before we say goodbye?"

  Ray said, and he moved his body closer to Mira, making his face so close to her so they could feel each other breath.

  In the beginning, Mira was a bit nervous, but seeing that Mira didn't give any sign of refusal, Ray moved his head closer, and the two lips join with each other.

  The time felt like it was slowing down when the two enjoyed each other lips. If someone said that first kiss tasted like Lemon, then Mira was currently enjoying that Lemon.

  Some moment passed, and Ray eventually stopped the kiss between them. It was all good for now, and Mira still needed some time to fully accept that she had fallen for him.

  He stood up and placed a card on the table.

  " Here is my name card and my number. If you have anything, please don't hold back and contact me, I will try my best to help you."

  After that, Ray paid for the bill and left the restaurant, making a cool exit.

  ********

  [ So, is it fine leaving it just like that?]

  ' Hehe, don't make such a fuss. The seed has been planted, and it only needs some time before it can be harvested. But it is such a shame that the item has been banned because of the BBM thing, *Sigh*.'

  [ Well, it really such a shame, host, but please blame yourself for that.]

  ' … '

  ' Shouldn't the script be like Aina has forgiven host and Aina will unban the item? Why is like like that just now?'

  [ Hehe, nope. Aina won't follow that script. Bweeehhh!]

  [ Oh, by the way, you still have the reward for clearing Elsa's dream world. Do you want to claim it now?]

  ' Hmm? Sure. Why not?'

  [ DING!!! Congratulations on getting limit remover I.]

  [ With this, the maximum stats you can increase is raised by 20.]

  ' Fuck so OP! Why don't you tell me sooner?'

  [ Emmm, should Aina says Ehe?]

  ' … '

  Not long after, Ray finally reached his own home. This time, he didn't choose to go back to Kyouko's office or the Vermillion's residence and instead chose to went into his own house.

  The reason was actually pretty simple: during the time in Elsa's brother's memories, he had felt the warmness from a parent, which made Ray somehow miss his parents in this world.

  [ Oh, my little host. Don't be sad. Aina is here for you. Do you want Aina to sing a lullaby to help you sleep?]

  ' Can you just stay silent for a while? You are breaking the whole atmosphere, you know.'

  [ Heh, no chance in hell. Aina had been sent here to annoy you. But Aina will give you a chance. As the most omnipotent system in the world, Aina could almost answer every question, so if you can provide Aina a question which she can't answer, Aina will follow your words for one whole day.]

  ' …… '

  [ Hehe, how about that? Isn't Aina kind? Why don't you praise Aina?]

  ' *Sigh* Okay then. Why was it when a computer goes too hot, it freeze?'

  [ NANI!!!!!]
