"Hi, have you seen the young man?" Ask Zi-O.

"No, why?" Ask Build.

"After all, young man are out today. For odd jobs," Decade added.

"It's okay. I just want him to listen to the story I wrote," Zi-O replied while showing Build a small notepad.

Build was silent for a moment.

"Since when did you start writing stories?" Ask Build.

"I went to his room earlier, and I found sheets of paper containing the stories he wrote. Like the story about a dragon disguised as a juvenile T-rex and then befriending a robot, a hybrid creature of a human and a lizard who is ostracized by the townspeople even though he is nothing wrong, even I found something that seems to be a concept for a fan game. I'm not sure but it looks like a crossover because the story is about Paildramon who works at a pizza restaurant, "explained Zi-O.

"So?"

"So I started writing stories like the ones he wrote. Do you want to hear it?" bargain Zi-O.

"No, thanks," Decade refused.

"Sorry, maybe another time," replied Build.

Zi-O was disappointed, but who knew if someone would listen. If no one would listen, he would tell the cats in the house.

"Hey, what's wrong with you?"

Turns out it was the Baron who summoned Zi-O.

"Ah, that's fine. I just wanted someone to listen to the story I just wrote. Would you like to hear it?" Zi-O said.

"About that...." Before the Baron had time to answer, suddenly Gaim shot up and stood next to the Baron.

"Just tell me. I want to hear it," Gaim said.

"Are you sure?" Zi-O asked hesitantly.

Gaim sat next to the Baron. He nodded his head excitedly because he wanted to hear Zi-O's story.

"Okay. Maybe not that great, but I'll tell you," Zi-O said.

"This is a story about a young man who lives with his father and younger sister. The younger sister is very selfish, she never wants to listen to what her older brother has to say. Once reprimanded, she will complain to her father and the young man ends up beaten by his father because the father loved his daughter more."

"Once, the young man was sick. His younger sister told him to fry eggs for her, but the young man couldn't cook them because he was sick. The selfish little sister got the idea to lie to her father. She heated some cooking oil, then after she feeling hot enough, she poured the cooking oil on her arm to make it look like he was scalded with hot oil by someone. After that, she pretended to cry and ran to her father. She told her father that the young man had doused her with heated cooking oil. The father believed his daughter's words even though she has lied. The father walked into the young man's room, then hit him while asking, 'why did you douse your sister with hot oil?'

The young man didn't know anything, so the father hit him again and kicked him until he was bruised. After that, he kicked the young man out of his house and asked him never to come to his house again," Zi-O said while he was telling the story.

"Wait a minute. Why is the story about parents being picky?" asked the Baron, although at first, he didn't want to hear the story.

"But the young man likes to make up stories like this, especially the story about a boy who was abused by his uncle," Zi-O replied.

"...."

After that, Baron and Gaim thought that it would be better to keep Zi-O out of the pile of stories written by young man.
