One.

When Siu woke up, Amelia was busy packing.

Three large travel trunk bags.

Amelia filled it with necessary items.

Each item was enough to last about a week, so it contained enough daily necessities to last three weeks.

Siwoo asked, rubbing his sleepy eyes.

"What is all this?"

"There is a place I want to go with Siwoo. "Would you like to bring your luggage?"

"yes."

I don't know what happened, but Siwoo went into the room carrying the small suitcase given to him by Amelia.

I pack the few clothes (Amelia bought me) and pajamas, as well as paper and a pen.

When I went down the stairs to the second floor, Amelia was waiting in the lobby holding a bag.

"Have you brought everything? "What about a toothbrush?"

"I put it in."

"You don't need anything like a towel. "I put it in."

"Yes, you said it."

Siwoo hurried down the stairs and stood next to Amelia.

According to what Siu has felt so far, the city of Gehenna is very beautiful.

Sometimes I go for a walk with Amelia, and sometimes I look around Lenormand Town or Ars Magna Town.

There is nothing but a place so pretty that it will make your eyes widen.

Therefore, Amelia's preparations to go on a trip at any moment made Siwoo excited.

Doesn't that mean that no matter where you go, you're going to a pretty place?

"Where are we going?"

"The cabin I used to live in."

"Is it camping?"

"I guess you could say it's similar."

Amelia naturally stroked Siwoo's head and Siwoo also accepted the hand.

Siwoo has never seen Amelia smile until now.

However, regardless of her bluntness, I already knew that she was a warm person on the inside, so I did not feel rejected by that.

"song."

Amelia and Siwoo placed their luggage on the back of the carriage that was waiting in the garden and entered the carriage together.

When Amelia waves her hand in a carriage with soft cushions and beautiful upholstery, the carriage begins to shake.

"It feels like I'm on an airplane. "Pack your luggage too."

Siwoo smiled and said to Amelia.

"airplane? Ah, an airplane."

Amelia tilted her head at the unfamiliar word and then nodded.

The fastest means of transportation among the universal carriages that exist in this world.

I have heard that it is a flying piece of metal.

"Have you ever ridden it?"

"Yes, I was very scared when I first rode it. "That was probably when I was seventeen… huh?"

Siwoo paused as he spoke, searching through his memories.

No matter how you look at Siwoo now, he is still a young boy.

Seventeen isn't that old, but it looks like he hasn't even reached puberty.

Amelia's expression darkened for a moment.

Every single one of his little actions.

Amelia couldn't help but think of clues that seemed to suggest that he was regaining his memory.

That all this happiness and peace is a lie.

Amelia opened her tightly closed lips and barely comforted Siwoo.

"I guess my memory is confused."

"I guess so. "I feel like I have a bit of a headache."

"Do you want to lie down for a bit?"

"Yes, I should…"

Amelia's carriage provided by Sophia does not have a separate space refraction magic applied to it.

Even if that happens, it's the luxury of Count Zemenai to make a living in his 30s.

Still, there was room for Siwoo to stretch out his legs and lie down.

At that time, Amelia got up from her seat and came towards Siwoo.

"huh?"

"Put your head here."

Amelia adjusted the hem of her light blue dress and patted her thigh.

Siwoo was embarrassed.

"Oh, no! are you okay. "It's okay to just stay like this."

"I feel uncomfortable in my head."

"It must be difficult for Amelia..."

"are you okay."

There were several scuffles, but Siwoo eventually followed Amelia's words.

It was also true that I liked her soft thighs more than laying my head down on a rattling chair.

"thank you. "I'm sorry about something."

"That won't happen."

I feel Amelia's soft yet elastic thighs against the back of my head.

As I looked upward, I saw Amelia's beauty, which had not faded at all even though she was looking up from under her chin.

I could also see my breasts sticking out.

"It's going to take a long time, so it's okay to wait a little while."

Amelia said, calmly stroking Siwoo's hair.

Moderate vibration, a comfortable thigh pillow, and a thin hand stroking my hair were more effective than any other sleeping pill.

While the carriage ran along a quiet path winding between green barley fields, Si-woo soon fell asleep.

2.

Even though they left early in the morning, it was well past lunch time by the time Amelia and Siu arrived at the oyster tree forest.

Amelia tapped Siwoo's shoulder, who had never woken up before, and woke him up. She packed her bags and set foot on the forest path.

"Wow… it's pretty."

As there is no indiscriminate development, Gehenna's nature is well preserved.

Moreover, this pine tree forest is a no-man's land between Lenormand Town and Taro Town, not belonging to any town.

The oyster trees, which were barely touched by humans, were all very tall.

"Yes?"

In response to Siu's exclamation, Amelia shrugged her shoulders as if she had been praised for a precious treasure and walked between the gray-brown wooden pillars.

Every time a breeze blew, the pointed leaves fluttered as if they were breathing.

As you walk along the unmarked mountain path, you will come across an empty space about 30 meters in diameter.

The inside of the pine tree forest is shaded by lush leaves, so the sun doesn't reach it very well, but this place was different.

Perhaps because it always receives a lot of sunlight, the grassy land was full of beautiful wildflowers and flowers.

A small log cabin was floating in the middle of a small and beautiful carpet of nameless wild flowers.

A cabin standing cutely under the refreshing sunlight and a small outbuilding next to it.

Happiness in Amelia's life meant the days in this little cabin.

Anyway, I had a small desire to spend the little time I had left with him here.

"Let's unpack."

"yes!"

In fact, it is a very shabby and insignificant building compared to Amelia's mansion, which is so luxurious that it feels sinful to call it a lodging, or the buildings he has visited so far.

Still, there was something about the log cabin in the middle of the forest that stimulated the boy's romance.

Maybe that's why Si-woo got excited and went inside the house.

It was cozy.

It was small and cute enough that if two people were living there, they wouldn't be out of each other's line of sight.

"are you okay?"

"yes! really good!"

Siwoo wandered around and looked around the house.

There is a small cupboard and a rocking chair in front of the fireplace.

Even though it looked like no one had been there for a long time, it was very neat and clean.

"If you go to the second floor, there is a bedroom. Would you like to take a look?"

"Is there a second floor?"

"Follow me."

Seeing Siwoo happy made Amelia feel good too.

Perhaps it was because he seemed to like the place she valued.

Amelia held Siu's hand and climbed the stairs.

Due to the nature of a hut, it is difficult to build it large and spacious.

So there were only two very small rooms on the second floor.

"This was my teacher's room, and this was my room."

Amelia entered the room she used when she was an apprentice witch.

Because it was directly below the roof, the ceiling descended diagonally.

A beautiful pine tree forest was hung like a picture on the small window facing south, and underneath it was a small bed that looked like it could barely accommodate one person.

A small desk and chair with no items piled up fill the corners of the room, and other miscellaneous items are piled under the bed in small boxes.

"Let Siwoo use this room. "It's a little small, but it'll be clean."

"Are you cleaning it regularly?"

"yes."

Siwoo laid out his items in the room with the excitement of a child who had discovered a secret base.

I finished unpacking when I hung up my clothes in the closet and put papers and books on the table.

"Right across from me is my room. "Would you like to help me unpack?"

"yes! "I'll help you!"

Si-woo, who answered bravely, picked up the suitcase from the first floor and returned to the room on the second floor alongside Amelia.

Amelia's room and her predecessor's room, Marigold's, had symmetrical structures, but this one was slightly wider and the bed was also larger.

Siwoo and Amelia open the suitcase and take out items one by one.

Even though it was such a trivial and uneventful incident, Amelia felt peace of mind.

That is, until she found her underwear in Siwoo's hands.

"ah....."

"uh....."

Plus an unfortunate fact.

Sophia's advice started at some point.

Following Sofia's almost brainwashing education that a true adult should wear adult underwear, most of Amelia's panties and bras were lingerie.

Underwear that exposes at least half of the breasts, has the buttocks completely visible, or has almost no straps.

Amelia, who had forgotten that fact for a moment in her joy and excitement, thought it was a mistake.

Siwoo's anxious eyes and Amelia watching them.

Amelia felt a strange sense of shame when she realized that his glances were moving between her chest, lower body, and underwear.

I felt my face get a little hot.

However, you must act calmly.

In this situation, showing signs of embarrassment will only end up embarrassing both Siwoo and Amelia.

Besides, why should he be ashamed of Si-woo in such a state?

Even if other witches saw her in her underwear, Amelia was confident that she wouldn't mind one bit.

So this time, stay calm and collected...

"Well...! "I will sort that out separately."

....Amelia, who was about to speak, chewed her tongue.

And although she is not conscious of it at all, she appears to be very flustered.

"yes...."

Siwoo also quietly handed the lingerie to Amelia with a red face.

- rustling rustling

For a while, only a very awkward atmosphere flowed between the two.

3.

After a short lunch of sandwiches, the two went out together to the open space in front of the cabin.

Siwoo, who had noticed the wild flowers blooming around him, was the first to suggest it.

"My mom taught me before. After gathering the shamrocks like this and making her headband..."

Amelia squatted on the shamrock and watched Siwoo working hard on something.

Gather the long flower stalks of the clover and tie a knot.

When the flower stalks, which were about a span and a half, were woven together, it became like a round headband the size of a little finger, and Siwoo picked wild flowers one by one and placed them in between them.

"If you decorate it with flowers like this, it becomes a pretty wreath. "Isn't it cool?"

Pink, green, purple, orange, navy, red.

A simple crown with colorful flowers nestled between white clover flowers was completed.

"Originally, I could make it a little bigger, but... it's been a while, so it doesn't work out. "The flower stalks are not very long..."

"It's really pretty. "Siwoo is very dexterous."

In fact, it was difficult to say that it was well made.

The headband is crooked and the knot is tied too tightly, so you can see broken flower stalks here and there.

If Amelia, who learned the method by watching from the side, follows along, it will be possible to make a much more elaborate and aesthetic wreath.

Still, I praise you.

Because it was cute.

After hesitating for a moment, Siwoo held it out.

"I'll give it to Amelia."

"To me?"

Amelia's eyes turned into surprised rabbit eyes.

Because this was the first time I received something from Siwoo.

Siwoo said as if he was embarrassed, avoiding Amelia's gaze.

"Thank you for always taking care of me and treating me well. "I want to give you something like this."

"....."

Amelia felt tears welling up in her eyes.

Why?

It's a feeling that's too complex to list in one word or sentence.

Amelia deferred answering that question.

"Siwoo… will you put it on for me?"

"yes!"

Amelia lowered her head slightly.

Amelia raised her head when she felt something being placed on her head.

"ah....."

And what was reflected in Siwoo's eyes.

With a wreath on my head and tears in my eyes,

It was Amelia, smiling brighter than a wild flower.

"thank you. "Siwoo."

The expression on Amelia's face that Siu faces is,

It was the first smile I had back since Master passed away.
