academy student

and it would not be a good idea for her to see them together because very bad misunderstandings would arise and later there would be fights.

 

Sofia exclaimed - Kijiro! It just can't be! Miss Layla saw us! —He said with urgency in his voice and looked directly into the boy's pupil's eyes.

 

Kijiro felt a loud roar and chills throughout his body upon hearing what Sofía said and quickly turned his neck to see Layla's small back leaving at an astonishing speed.

 

Kijiro felt a strong feeling of fear running from his lower back to his head and he knew that he must act right now, he knows that Layla wants him and seeing them together he should think the worst.

 

Kijiro spoke - Sofia, I have to leave right now or we will be in big trouble - He said with urgency in his voice and almost crying tears of anguish.

 

Sofia heard the urgency in the voice and nodded with obvious concern, she quickly helped Kijiro to paddle faster to get there.

 

After a few moments they arrived and handed over the rented boat, Kijiro took Sofia's hand and they both ran with the bags of money and jewelry. When they were close to Sofia's house they stopped and saw Maya waiting for them outside the door with friendly smiles and suspicions.

 

Kijiro waved to the two women and left quickly without stopping towards the Nessro mansion. He had to speak very well with Layla and not hurt her emotionally, which is the most dangerous of all injuries.

 

The old woman Maya was startled when she saw the child's quick retreat and turned to see her granddaughter who was staring at the child's back, then she asked - What's happening? Did something bad happen, Sofia? —he said with a lot of curiosity and concern in his voice.

 

*Sofía did not say anything and only pointed to the door indicating what they would enter, as they ran into the house.

 

Sofia spoke—Grandma, what I am going to tell you and teach you has to be secret, this is a birthday gift from Kijiro, look at this—She said and directly revealed the contents of the three bags on the ground, making jingling noises*.

 

The old woman Maya, upon seeing this, was very surprised and did not know what to do, she quickly asked - How is this possible? Did they do something wrong? — She said with a squeaky voice, how excited she was to see all these jewels and money scattered all over the floor making small mountains of gold.

 

Sofía was quick to explain — No! Kijiro gave me this and it's not bad at all, he told me that it is to help me fulfill my dream of entering the imperial academy of light to be a demon hunter like my late parents - He said with an excited and moved voice when he remembered.

 

Maya felt moved by that great gesture from the child and remembered that this child felt a strange sensation of falling in love with his granddaughter. Since he saved her, he has always wanted them both to get together, but upon learning of Miss Layla's feelings, he did not dare. to do anything and frequently warned her granddaughter to never do anything that would be misunderstood and that Miss Layla would find out or see, always be discreet.

 

Maya asked - Why did he run away? —He said suspiciously.

 

Sofia took a while to answer, but she spoke. "Miss Layla saw us and left angry," she said with shame and sadness.

 

Maya screamed - What! —He said with fear.

 

Kijiro managed to arrive in time and saw that he had just entered the room with the intention of closing the door, but Kijiro was much faster and managed to do what he did not close it.

 

Layla saw this and spoke, "What are you doing, leave my door," she said in an annoyed voice.

 

Kijiro heard this and saw her looking at him with tears flowing, so he approached the girl and kissed her on the cheek near her lips, he also hugged her.

 

Layla, upon feeling this sudden attack from Kijiro, stopped and forgot to cry, the blood was rushing to her head and she blushed like crazy, then she fell unconscious, but fortunately she was caught by Kijiro who held her in his arms and took her to the bed for him to rest and explain everything.

Layla Nessro rarely has good dreams, as she always has strange nightmares where she commits suicide, but she looks very old. Now she doesn't want to think about that kind of thing and slowly opened her eyes to show a big friendly smile full of teeth to the boy who was still sitting next to the bed and watching her closely.

 

Kijiro decided to sit next to Layla so that when she woke up she would give him a good explanation so there would be no problems of any kind, don't look at him like a six-year-old boy or a proud eight-year-old girl, because in reality he has a very mature mentality and not to mention Kijiro himself.

 

Getting out of his problematic thoughts, he visualizes the girl's beautiful open eyes and also a beautiful toothy smile, he knows that she is not upset and decides to speak - Layla, what you saw was that it is Sofia's birthday and that is why I took her to the boats , I also gave her that change of clothes, I hope you understand that there are no feelings of any kind from her. I like Sofia, but she only sees me as a child and friend - He said calmly and when he observed the boring atmosphere he decided to continue talking - You know, she is eleven years old and I am only six years old, and she will also go to the imperial academy to be a huntress. hell and we won't see each other very often for another seven years, I hope you understand my feelings Miss Layla - He said with respect and sincerity, he really didn't want to hide things and told her that he likes Sofía, but she only sees him as a little child.

 

Layla heard the sincerity in Kijiro's words and quickly thought seriously that there is no type of competition for Kijiro's love, after all that Sofia is eleven years old and it is very safe to say that she will meet some noble at that academy. where she will get married and forget about Kijiro. With a smile bigger than that of a blonde ninja he spoke - Kijiro it's okay for you to talk to her. I have no doubt that he will find a good nobleman in that academy and will be a wife, you just have to look at his beautiful face and beauty - He said without anger or envy, but for Kijiro hearing these scandalous things he felt a strong blow in the area of ​​​​the heart and I quickly spoke - You actually believe those things and if for some inexplicable reason in the future Sofia doesn't have a boyfriend and she liked him. — He stopped for a few moments and continued talking, but this time it was a question — Will it be okay for us to be a couple? — She said it in a serious voice and looked directly into the beautiful eyes of the girl who, upon hearing these serious words from Kijiro, felt ashamed and strange. But he answered — Yes, for some reason that kind of thing happens. I, Miss Layla Nessro, will allow you to be her partner, but you must not forget me and you will always be my personal butler - She said in a serious voice, but unfortunately for her, Kijiro is a reincarnate and she could distinguish the sadness hidden in the girl's arrogant words. .

 

*Kijiro felt a little embarrassed having to reveal all these things to a girl who is only eight years old and who is in love with him, but it is better that he understands it now and not later. After all, Sofia has a very kind, delicate, shy and attentive personality, something that he loved very much when he met her in this period of time. He honestly did not want her to go to the imperial academy because he suspected that there would be a lot of harassment from those arrogant nobles. When he found out about Sofía's origins, but like an idiot he bit his heart and gave her the money so that she could study, even though he gave her money every year*.

 

Coming out of my thoughts I speak - Layla, I know that on this same day you also have a birthday and I also have a gift for you, I hope you like it very much - He said calmly, but inside he was cursing for not remembering that Layla has her birthday on the same day That was what Sofía saw in the novel and now she remembered, but even more importantly, what she is going to give her, she doesn't know.

 

Layla heard Kijiro mention his birthday and felt a strong sensation of surprising warmth. She looked directly into the unique eyes of the short, pale boy who acted very shy when he felt the scrutinizing gaze and smiled warmly at him.

 

Kijiro felt Layla's scrutinizing gaze and quickly turned to look at her, only to freeze when he saw that beautiful smile full of warmth like the sun and without further denial he decided to give something that he really liked. Striving to try to control the power of the awakened ability and managed to do so so that the form of a small Venex appeared in front of Layla, but the curious thing about this Venex is that it measures less than twenty centimeters and has a color as dark as night, in addition It also looks like a kind of stuffed animal made of smoke that you can touch with your hands. Layla saw this entire creation process very magical and spoke - Kijiro this is beautiful, you are great - she said with admiration when she saw that a six-year-old boy managed to wake up and control him like an academy student, but what surprised her most were the following child's words
