“Woah! It’s true. It’s really Uncle Hal!”
Running through the maids who bowed their head deeply, the tall man leaped vigorously at Hal as he walked swiftly in front of him.
“I was surprised to see you coming all of a sudden. It’s been 10 years, right?”
“Is that so? I don’t remember it well.”
“I’ve been worried because I haven’t heard anything from you since you said you will see me tomorrow.”
“I’m sorry about that.”
Hal shrugged and casually stroked the head of the bigger man. The man then smiled with satisfaction. When he finally noticed me, he look surprised.
“….Who is this?”
“Your caretaker.”
“Caretaker?”
“Look, before, you said you wanted a friend, didn’t you? My Father said he won’t allow it, so I found you a caretaker instead.”

He was taller than me by a head and have a firm body. I don’t know how old he is, but he is probably younger. There is youthful look in his eyes.
….For a moment, I was captivated.
If Hal’s beauty is the type of beauty which is violent and unilateral, his beauty is the type which is appealing to the inside.
Looking at his friendly smile, my tension gradually relaxed and the corner of my mouth naturally turns up.
“….Hello.”
While bowing his head slightly, he turned his cheerful gaze to Hal.
“He is Ban-san.”
Hal answers in a flat voice.
“Ban-san.”
After repeated my name, he turned his gaze to me again.
“Nice to meet you. I’m Yuria.”
He held out his hand. And while still doubtful, I finally shake his hand.
His hand is warm, like a normal hand, and realizing that makes me feel relieved.
“Young Master… Yuria.”
“Haha, please don’t call me ‘young master’. Just Yuria is fine.”
“….Hey, can I really call him like that? If I call him in such manner, won’t you kill me?”
When I whispered into Hal’s ear, he shrugged.
“I won’t kill you just because of that.”
But it seems you will kill me for another reasons. I decided to stop asking.
“N-Nice to meet you too, Yuria.”
“Yes!”
Yuria smiles like a dog.
He was full of emotions and I seemed to see his tail swing from side to side.
Among the meager expression between Hal and the maids, his cheerfulness is different.
“May I show you around the mansion? ….Ah, but it’s already late. How about we do that tomorrow? For now, I will take you to a vacant room. Is that all you have? I’ll carry it.”
“Huh!? Y-Young Master, you don’t have to do that.”
“It’s alright. After all, it’s me who wish for you to be here.”
Without asking my opinion, Yuria took the bag out of my hand and turn around.
“W-Wait a minute! Even so, I still have to carry my own luggage.”
I ran after him in a hurry. Finally, I decided to look back at Hal for his instructions.
Frightened, I pinchs my cheek.
“….Whoa! Seriously?!”
The man who was supposed to be there is no longer there. As if he was never been there before.
….The maids are looking up to me.
I made up my mind and walked into the magnificent mansion.
