TN: HERE WE GO. Sorry for waiting.

My master was not to be underestimated.

The man snickered.

Iron fortress – Gion. It was natural to think he would lay traps around in his office but to think the Shadows, who were pro in this field, were caught so easily. Plus there was something unnatural about the way this news was presented.

No matter how I sniffed around, I could not seem to even get a single bit of information. The only thing I found out was that somehow, Gion had been running around. And even that was an unreliable bit of rumor from the streets. To think Gion Beryl managed to keep such a tight lid...

But now, just by poking a little, the seams fell apart and information could be easily gotten. It was as if he was trying to hide something else....

And my master, whose appearance was easily looked down upon, was actually a sharp and able person. To get that fact confirmed again, the black hooded man....no, the masked man laughed. My master had picked up on this tiny clue and gave his instructions quickly. To think I had decided to investigate it myself had he not say anything.

I had plenty of time.

And I waited for 3 years.

Finally my time had come.

Will―――― Williams Beryl had entered the Academy. Even if I still had to wait for 2 more years till Will graduates, this was still an unexpectedly good news. The mansion and Gion's close proximity were too dangerous. The risk of me being found out was too high. And right now, both of those were a far distance away from Will. Now is the best timing.

Lowering my hood and deeply covering my face, I cackled.

I had a dream.

I dreamed that I was summoned by god (gramps) and I laid all my dissatisfaction on him. To give me a [cheat] ability that I did not even ask for, did he know how much troubles I had because of him? But it was also thanks to that, I managed to help Selphys and most of all, to be able protect all the people I hold dear from now onward. I should be fine if I hide my abilities to prevent being feared or looked upon as a weirdo and if it really did get found out, I can only resigned to my fate.

But that gramps.

He was definitely not reflecting on his wrongdoings.

To prevent the incident that happened to me happening to others, he should at least shave off his beard. If he ever appears in my dreams the next time, I am going to pluck all of it out.

Ah, don't mind that too much since after all, it was only all a dream. But it did make me think. Even if I received this [cheat], I am still living as now I want it to be.

My first aim is that.

Yep.

To be loved by people. In other words..

To be popular!

As I renewed my determination, the alarm sounded. I peeled myself off the bed and climbed down the ladder.

" Oi! Zen! Wake up! "

" Unn...5 minutes more... "

Leaving the mumbling Zen, I quickly washed up and got ready. Sorry Zen, I don't want to miss breakfast. Brushing the lint off my uniform, I opened the door. Since it was still early, I leisurely strolled down the corridor and heard bustling behind me.

" Will~ Don't leave me behind! "

Zen.

As he had rushed out in a hurry, his bed hair was still sticking out all over the place and his collar stood up too. Since it was amusing, I shall keep quiet about it. I then grinned.
