Thank you for always following along with my story.

Ilvalino helped Cain get into his pajamas and so it would be easier for him to sleep he braided his hair into a loose braid. As Cain yawned a quiet knock came from the door.

After speaking with Ilvalino, Dianna entered the room in her pajamas with her lady attendant Sasha. Dianna sat next to Cain on the bed and Ilvalino stood next to Sasha a few steps behind them.

“Older brother you are going to school in the neighboring country, right?”

“Yeah.”

“But if Di asked you wouldn’t go right?”

She tilted her head cutely, placed her cheek on her palms, and gazed up at Cain. She was using her deadly begging technique against him. When she brings out that technique Cain could only raise a white flag in surrender. As always.

“I want to honor Dianna’s wishes. But this time it is a bit difficult…”

“Big brother…”

“Ilvalino will stay here. If you get into any trouble reach out to Ilvalino for help. He will take care of you.”

I thought about running away from home to avoid studying abroad. Teacher Tirnoa already asked him if he wanted to join the Mage Corps, and he could become a knight’s apprentice with the experience he gained from swordsmanship training.

However, when he considered the future, it would be a waste to give up the power he would possess practically the moment he becomes an adult. The ability that would allow him to make Dianna happy.

“Big brother, is it okay if I sleep with you today?”

“You can’t!”

The one who had opposed was Dianna’s lady’s maid Sasha. She had been indoctrinated with words from Dismiya about men and women, ethics, and how the world perceives certain behaviors.

Dianna inflated her cheeks and snorted. Sasha’s eyes nearly fell out of their sockets. She has been with Dianna for only a year and probably only knew the version of Dianna that was ladylike.

Ilvalino had gone at some point to grab two blankets. He handed one to Sasha and motioned to the sofa.

“If you are worried, why don’t you stay here with them. I will leave them to you because I prefer to sleep alone.”

With that said, Ilvalino draped one of the blankets on the back of the sofa and returned to the bed to finish Cain’s hair. To avoid the hair from coming loose he covered the hair and slung the braid over Cain’s left shoulder.

Ilvalino surveyed his work and was satisfied. He nodded, then returned to the sofa where he curled up and covered himself with a blanket.

“Miss Dianna, you mustn’t catch a cold.”

“With Mister Cain you won’t catch a cold.”

“Big brother, won’t let Di catch a cold.”

“Miss Dianna. It is “I”.”

“…big brother won’t let me catch a cold.”

Sasha laid down on the sofa but said if anything happened, she would take Dianna back to her room.

Dianna and Cain laid facing each other on the large bed with the lights off and told silly stories to one another.[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]

“Big brother. You promise to write me letters?”

“I will write you tons of letters. Every day I will write one.”

“Di will also write you lots of letters, so you have to read them, okay?”

“I will read them 100 times. I will also write you a response.”

“Are you going to come back for your break?”

“I will come back. I will come back each weekend. The country of Siriyum is right next to our territory so it should be fine if it is a long weekend to play together in Nerugrande.”

“Starting yesterday Di’s teeth have been wobbling and it hurts to eat hard foods.”

“They probably are going to come out soon. Is it your top teeth or your bottom teeth?”

“My top teeth.”

“Then it must be under the surface. It is a shame we couldn’t throw it together. I didn’t even know your teeth were hurting during dinner. That’s amazing. You kept your composure and ate through the pain.”

“Ehhehe.”

“Big brother, I have tried really hard to get a lot of compliments from you.”

“I will continue to praise you. Just make sure to write a letter and I will reply.”

“In my true form, I wonder if I should go for a ninja instead of a knight…you can do anything with ninjitsu right?”

“Anything…I wonder…”

The futon made a rustling sound, she lifted herself from the futon, and her feet movements made light tapping sounds.

“When I become big, I will be an amazing hero who fights to protect the weak.”

“Yeah.”

“At times when I say “Enough!” I will say that my brother will beat them up.”

“Yeah.”

“That’s why…you should return soon.”

“Yeah. I will come back. I will come back soon. You have to study hard too Dianna to become a hero that protects the weak.”

Dianna’s words became softer and softer. The futon had become warm from their body heat and though she wanted to keep talking to Cain she was starting to fall asleep.

“Di…has an alias that will endure…anything.”

“Goodnight Dianna. I will still be here tomorrow, so rest assured and go to sleep.”

“Goodnight…big…brother.”

After a while, Cain heard the soft sigh that accompanied Dianna’s sleep. Ilvalino who was curled up on the sofa looked around and saw that Sasha was still awake. Sasha raised herself so she could look at the bed.

“No matter where you go you two will always be brother and sister. Close brother and sisters.”

Although Sasha was still suspicious of Ilvalino’s word she understood that for that night there wasn’t anything to worry about. When she could hear the two of them breathing on the bed she turned back towards Ilvalino.

Sasha was only trying to protect Dianna from the odd relationship that Cain had cultivated. She had heard about it from the head of household.

Sasha made sure that Dianna was acting like a lady and only grew stern when correcting her. She certainly had a love for Dianna but she didn’t feel that was overwhelming and stressful.

Ilvalino on his sofa thought that love might not be the only thing they needed.
