“Lilith
”
Cheshire raised his trembling arms and hugged Lilith.
It felt strange to hold Lilith, who was crying sadly.
“D, don’t go
 Hiks. I hate parting ways with you. It would be strange without you
”
“
.”
Me too.
I think every day without you by my side would be strange too.
Cheshire wanted to say so, but he held back because he was afraid he would cry if he opened his mouth.
“I will
 come to see you often.”
There weren’t many times in his life when he was with Lilith.
However, in the achromatic life where everything was black and white, the days when only light shined—.
“I’m here to pick you up.”
Yeah.
It’s been since the day you held my hand.
“Trust me just once
 .”
“Anywhere, it will be better than this hell.”
Cheshire was sure.
“Really, it’s not like we are parting ways
”
The boy, who didn’t want to be hurt, vowed not to trust anyone from now on, but in the end, he failed again.
“Continue, with you
”
But this time he had no regrets.
He won’t have any regrets in the future.
“I will live with you
”
He didn’t know if Lilith had heard the very small whisper.
Maybe buried in a loud cry.
“Whaaaa.”
In the end, Cheshire lifted his sleeves and wiped them roughly from her eyes, as he thought her tears would fall off.
“Oh my.”
Enoch, who had been watching the two of them, approached with a sigh and a smile.
“Princess. Please stop crying.”
“Daaad
 I, I want to stay i, in Uncle’s house for a while
.”
“Oh, my, princess. You’re going to run out of breath.”
Enoch, who was flustered, straightened Lilith and faced her.
“Then, Princess. Let’s go to Uncle’s house and sleep for a night.”
“O, one night?”
“Eung. Go and see if the house Cheshire will be staying in is good, and see if there are many delicious things.”
“Uh. Ukh.”
“After that, my princess, if you can be at ease, don’t cry anymore and return home strong. Okay?”
“
.”
Lilith didn’t seem to want to have just one night, but she nodded after thinking about it.
“Okay
”
“I’m going crazy, really.”
Enoch held back a laugh and stood up with Lilith in his arms.

I got into the carriage with my Dad.
When I arrived at Axion’s house, my eyes were swollen like the belly of a pufferfish who had cried too much.
“Sniff. But it’s right in front of Uncle’s house
”
“I told you it was close.”
Axion laughed as I spoke embarrassingly.
Just five minutes by carriage.
It was a little embarrassing to cry back as if the world had disappeared.
“Wow! Uncle’s house is big and nice!”
I passed the size. The environment is pleasant.
Although not as much as our house, the Duke of Libre had quite a grand taste.
But when I went in, I couldn’t help but be surprised.
“Welcome!”
“Oh, I didn’t expect our Duke to come?”
A young butler.
A lady with a warm impression.
Both of them were the servants of Axion’s house—.
‘Wow, I understand why Rico said he couldn’t plant spies here.’
I remembered Rico’s words and nodded my head.
“There’s only one place I haven’t been able to put my guild member in. Libre. What’s going on there? They didn’t hire an employee
”
On top of that, the house is big and very empty.
It doesn’t smell like people living.
“Please come often, Duke. Yes?”
“Martha, long time no see. Now, there must be a lot of things to stop by because of Cheshire, well.”
The Aunt, Martha, seemed friendly with my Dad too.
Before coming here, I heard that she was a nanny who had been taking care of Axion since he was young.
“Oh my! How can you both look like dolls?”
“Aunt! Please take good care of our Cheshire!”
I asked Aunt Martha, bowing politely to her.
“Please give him a lot of delicious things. Cheshire likes the red meat stew with tomatoes the best.”
“Oh my?”
Cheshire’s cheeks turned red. Apparently, he seemed embarrassed by me for acting like an extreme parent.
But Aunt Martha readily nodded her head, as if I was cute.
“Don’t worry. There is no food that he can’t eat like this. Our Young Master doesn’t even take my hand if it’s not my food?”
That’s a relief!
Aunt Martha seemed to be a housewife of level 9.
“Hahaha, now I can smell the smell of living in the house.”
At that time, the young butler who was watching us happily said.
“I am Caron. Please call me by my name. I can call you Young Master from now on, right?”
“
Hello.”
Caron, who was looking at Cheshire happily, suddenly added with tears in his eyes.
“Young Master, please listen to me. Do you know how much my Young Master has been working on me all week? Decorate your room, buy something boys like
 Hmph!”
“You say something nonsense, really.”
Axion hurriedly covered Caron’s mouth with his hand.
However, I was quick-witted and listened to all of Caron’s words.
‘W, what? Aren’t you waiting for Uncle to come to Cheshire?’
I slyly closed my eyes and smiled.
Looking at Dad, he looked at Axion with the same expression as mine.
“You told them to do what is comfortable. What if Cheshire didn’t come? You must have cried because you were upset.”
“What are you talking about? The room is on the second floor.”
Axion ignored Dad’s teasing voice and headed to the second floor first.
“Okay, let’s go quickly too!”
Dad put us first with Cheshire’s luggage in both hands.
I finally felt relieved as I followed Axion’s sturdy back.
‘Yes, if Cheshire needs another father than my Dad, honestly, there is no one like Uncle!’
Even though he is blunt on the outside, he is secretly friendly!
A successful Paladin who was born as the third son of the Marquis family and has established numerous achievements in wars since he was knighted!
The first head of the Libre family, who was granted the title of Duke seven years ago and made a new castle himself!
And crucially,
The side of the main character, without a doubt!
With a more relaxed mind, I followed Axion into the room.
‘Oh my.’
But as soon as I entered, I was shocked.
‘It’s completely a Prince’s room!’
It was different from Axion’s room.
A huge bed that would be enough for five adult men to roll over.
A spacious desk and bookshelves lined with books.
There are blue curtains that look like they just bought a new one on the open floor-to-ceiling windows.
“I, it’s better than my room!”
There was even a large single-seater sofa and table on top of the sky-blue rug laid out according to the color.
“Hey. Cheshire, if you said you wouldn’t come here, our vice-commander would have really cried.”
Dad stuck out his tongue.
I was so happy that I jumped, held Cheshire’s hand, and ran around the room.
Then I found something standing on the bedside table.
“Huh?!”
That
it was the ‘Magic Sword of Hero Louis’!
1st place in boys’ favorite toy ranking!
“Wahaha! Cheshire, look at this! Uncle must have bought it for you!”
Although I already gave it to you.
Cheshire blushed as he looked at the magic sword of the hero Louis.
He seemed to feel Axion’s heart, too.
“Hihi, that’s really good. right? Uncle is really the best.”
“
Eung.”
Before I knew it, Axion had changed his clothes and was leaning against the doorway and watching us when I turned around.
I rushed over to Axion and hugged him by the leg.
“Uncle! Uncle is the best! You’re the coolest person in the world!”
“what? What about your father?”
“Daddy is number two! Uncle is the best!”
“
Princess? What kind of disappointing word is that?”
“Hahahaha!”
“Wahaha!”
It’s really, really the best!
* * *
We had the best day ever.
Aunt Martha’s cooking was excellent and Caron’s talkativeness was funny.
Originally, the three of them ate together every day, and it was like a family.
Cheshire will be with them now, right?
‘Uhehe.’
I ate two bowls of stew and held the pen while rubbing my bulging stomach like a tadpole.
‘Today’s diary!’
I was the first to have the honor of sitting at Cheshire’s desk.
Originally, it was a diary that I had brought with me to write while staying for a few days—.
‘Now I don’t have to worry at all!’
I felt relieved even if I went back after sleeping for one night.
“Haaam. Princess, what are you doing?”
Dad yawned and called me.
“I write a diary!”
“Diary?”
“Eung, I wrote it all down!”
I closed my diary and looked back.
Dad and Cheshire in pajamas were lying side by side on the bed.
The bed was very big.
“If you finish writing, come quickly. Sleep.”
“Wait!”
I ran out and knocked on the door of Axion’s room.
“Uncle, are you sleeping already?”
“No.”
“Can I come in?”
“Yeah.”
When I opened the door, Axion was leaning against the bedhead and reading a book.
I hurriedly went in front of him.
“Uncle!”
“Why?”
“Let’s go to Cheshire’s room and sleep together!”
“What? I don’t want to.”
Axion shook his head.
“Hng. Can’t you?”
As if to ask for it, I held my hands tightly and let out a special move with my mouth pouting.
“Haa.”
Success!
Eventually, Axion, who had been staring at me for a long time, slowly blinking his eyes, got up with a pillow with a sigh.
“Wahaha!”
“Haa. I really
”
I clasped Axion’s hand and returned to Cheshire’s room.
Dad, who had been chatting with Cheshire, was disgusted as soon as he saw Axion, who had brought a pillow.
“What is this? It’s too small here! Where are you coming with that size?”
“It’s not small!”
“Your daughter told me to come, don’t you know?”
I ran and lay between my dad and Cheshire. Axion settled beside Cheshire.
“Wahaha!”
“What am I really doing—”
Axion murmured and immediately closed his eyes.
I faced Cheshire.
“It was really nice today. Right? The stew made by Aunt Martha was also delicious.”
“Eung.”
“Cheshire, are you happy?”
When asked, Cheshire stared at me quietly and smiled slightly.
“Eung. I’m happy.”
“Hehe. I’m happy that you’re happy, too.”
I heard Dad laughing behind me.
Axion could be seen smiling with his eyes closed too.
Hmm. It’s a little embarrassing.
So the next words were quietly whispered into Cheshire’s ear so only he could hear.
“You know, let’s be happy forever. I will continue to live with you.”
“I’ll continue to live with you
”
What Cheshire said while comforting me.
I said the same thing.
Chesier looked at me quietly and smiled again and nodded his head.
“
Yeah.”
“Hehe. Then Cheshire, good night! Good night, Uncle! Sweet dreams, too, Daddy!”
“Yeah.”
“Good night, my princess.”
I closed my eyes with a happy heart.
Really, it was the best day.

[July 28th, Lilith’s diary
Weather: The sun is too strong.
Cheshire Libre.
Cheshire finally has a last name.
He has a house and a room like a prince.
I was relieved because I think Uncle Axion will be a very good father to Cheshire.
I’m glad that Aunt Martha and Caron are good people.
My house is just around the corner, so I’ll come visit often to see Cheshire.
Cheshire will be happy.
And Uncle will be happy too, right?
Because now Uncle has a son to dig a grave for him!
