âWh, why are you crying all of a sudden?â
Alois answered Chrisâs question with tears in her eyes.
âHeubâŠ! Because I think youâre mad at me⊠âŠâ
âLie. Your face is completely stiff.â
Chris was at a loss and explained, but Alois refused to believe it.
To those who didnât know, Chrisâ face resembled an angry expression.
Chris said while sweeping his face with his hands.
âThis is how I look. Itâs a little far from thatâŠâ
Then, as if he was uneasy about the gazes around him, he looked embarrassed.
When she burst into tears while on the move, he seemed to have no idea how to soothe her.
Chris said to stay away, but steadily held onto Alois.
It seemed that if he let go of her hand, Alois would collapse immediately, so he couldnât take it off.
Alois asked sadly after hearing that he was not angry repeatedly.
âReally? You really donât hate me? Isnât it disappointing that Iâm the only family?â
âHuh?âŠ..how far do you imagine it!â
Chris freaked out and yelled at Alois.
TL/N: LOL this looked quite funny in my head, stoic Chris losing his calm.
Gregoryâs eyes widened at the word âonly familyâ.
And he seemed to understand the situation quickly.
âItâs because Iâve been hiding it even though I know it. And you think we abandoned youâŠâ
âDid you really throw me away?â
âNo! Never! How can we abandon you? It really isnât. Our father was burned to death trying to save you.â
âIâm sorry I came too late. Our mother is already dead, and all I have left is this handkerchiefâŠ.â
Alois held out the handkerchief she received from Chris and sniffled.
When Chris heard that his father had died trying to save him, his face hardened.
Then, his lips moved at the fact that his mother had already died and that Alois was the only one left.
Alois was rambling on about shocking facts, thinking she had to explain the situation.
âNo matter how much his expression doesnât change, heâll be shocked⊠âŠ.â
I was slightly worried about Chris, but fortunately, he managed to keep his emotions under control.
After a while, he tried to soften his expression and comforted Alois.
âYes. I see, so please give me some strength in your feet now. The floor is sand, so itâs hard to support you.â
In fact, it didnât look like a moving scene to call it a family reunion after a few decades.
In the first place, it was natural that Chris wasnât that type of personality.
However, Alois still hugged him and wailed loudly, as if she wasnât sure about his reaction.
âHeueoeoeong! Iâm sorry. Iâm sorry I fooled you!â
âHa, what the hellâŠ!â
Chris let out an annoyed voice and made eye contact with me.

I smiled silently and averted my gaze and turned my back.
Following me, Lexion and Gregory stood with their backs to the two of them.
It looked like they were on the lookout.
Chris let out a sigh as the three of us acted in unison.
I tried to laugh a little, but felt ashamed of the sound of my breath, so I held it back.
After a while, the sound of Chris patting Aloisâ back was heard.
I sneaked around and glanced at them.
Chris confessed his feelings in his own way.
âIâm sorry for being a blunt younger brother. Itâs because of my habit of surviving in the slums.â
âMy name was Alec. Itâs more manly and better than Chris, whom the Duke named.â
âActually, my personality is dirty and rough. You may regret finding me in less than a month.â
âI have no regrets⊠âŠNever.â
Alois replied repeatedly with a face full of tears and a runny nose.
A small smile spread across Chrisâ face.
I looked at him in surprise and Chris said.
âYes, thank you for coming.â
âHeueoeong! Sister, like this*⊠!â
TL/N: I think itâs like she canât believe Chris calling her âSisterâ âlike thisâ (in this way). Am I confusing yall? hahaha
Alois cried as if her tears had burst again at Chrisâ last words.
I understood Aloisâ reaction.
Iâve witnessed her jokingly asking Chris to call her sister and then she was turned down like a knife.
Chris tried to calm her down, but he made an absurd expression when he saw Alois crying again.
However, he did not use harsh words such as âStop cryingâ or âDonât be clingyâ to Alois.
He just kept patting Alois on the back with an awkward face.
Aloisâ crying gradually stopped, as if Chrisâ effort had been conveyed.
I raised the corner of my mouth at the sight of a friendly brother and sister.
âYou canât peep, Titi.â
At that time, Lexion, who approached me, looked away from me and smiled.
âHehe. I couldnât stop myself.â
I laughed with my cheek caught by Lexion.
I was so happy that Lexion was in front of me, so I kept laughing.
This time I saved all my precious people.
I found Alois a family and became Lexionâs lover.
And now that the evil dragonâs tyranny was gone, it was like saving the world.
âAs expected, family is family. Itâs nice to see the two of them liking each other.â
âDo you miss your family?â
The hand on my cheek trembled.
I looked up at him in wonder, and he had a somewhat stiff face.
âThe family in the other world.â
âAll my memories had already disappeared when I gave up the world to get rid of Kun.â
âEven if I had a family, I probably would have died or ceased to exist.â
Lexion stared at me with an uneasy face.
It was very lovely to see him worried that I might regret it.
I put my hand on his and said.
âIâve already decided to accept that Iâm Toarozety Esol.â
âSo I think I need a new family from now on.â
It was because he knew what I meant.
Tiarozety Esol is an orphan.
I donât know who her parents are.
So when Tiarozety said she needed a family, it meant she wanted to start a new family
âBe my family, Zion.â
âIâll make you happy.â
TL/N: OmG SHE PROPOSED KYAHHH

Lexionâs eyes shook as I declared with a big smile.
The word âhappinessâ was quite meaningful to me and Lexion.
âYou have to be happy.â
Thatâs what I said to Lexion before my regression-
âI canât be happy with anyone else.â
Lexion responded to my dying wishes like this.
So Iâm the only one who can make Lexion happy.
âIâll make you happy as much as you want.â
As I repeatedly declared, Lexion bowed his head.
Then he covered it with his hands as if to hide his face.
When I tilted my face to see his expression, he turned away.
âIâm sure itâs going to be a messâŠâŠ.â
I carefully pulled his hand down.
He tried to avoid my gaze with a frown on his face.
His face was very flushed, and he bit his lower lip trying to hold back something.
Seeing him shy with his handsome face somehow made me feel full.
TL/N: Halp they are so cute

âYou look happy already.â
âEung. Iâm so happy that Iâm scared that this happiness will disappear.â
Lexion barely met my gaze.
I whispered while holding his cheek.
âIt doesnât disappear.â
âAnd you donât have to hide this from me. I just want to see you myself.â
Lexion smiled faintly as if he was about to collapse.
Feeling a strange impulse, I lightly kissed him.
The feeling of wanting to be touched was seething, and now the fact that it was a relationship that I could touch as much as I wanted, made me active.
Lexion grabbed me by the waist as I was about to fall off after enjoying the feeling for a while.
Thanks to that, the body that was about to step back leaned forward, and the lips that were about to fall met again.
Surprised, a shallow moan flowed out and was quietly buried.
His soft lips tickled my lower lip, causing them to part.
The kiss that started lightly deepened in an instant, and the initiative passed to Lexion.
His breath tickled the tip of his nose and the lips he touched became gradually warmer.
Even though I knew there was someone around me, I couldnât stand the rising emotions.
Uncontrollable emotions flowed from mouth to mouth, enjoying the joy of reunion.
I felt my heart boiling with Lexionâs kiss of consent to the proposal.
My heart was full and I was so happy that I wondered if I could be this happy.
The book has already been completed, but I had unexpectedly thought true completion would be at this time.
Of course, life was better now, and I no longer had to be restricted or bound to the main character.
I will not let go of this hard-won world and Lexion.
After a while, Lexion parted his lips.
Then, he looked at me intently.
The reddish cheeks made him look very captivating.
I swallowed my saliva without realizing it, and Lexion said.
âBecause you said so.â
Lexion whispered softly with a light smile.
âThen Iâm happy tooâ
âBecause you told me honestly.â
Lexion burst into laughter at my bold reaction.
The word âhappyâ was about to come out.
It was a warm and sweet time now that I didnât have to be afraid of being taken away by someone.
TL/N: So many good things happened in this chapter! Chris/Alecâs reunion with Alois in this timeline, and TIAROZETY PROPOSING TO LEXION!!
Did anyone expect that? Cause I DID NOT!
I just realised i inserted a lot of notes in this chapter! Sorry if it disrupts your reading! I just needed to share my feels with yall
