{[Urgent Side Quest #23!]} - [S++ Rank]

When he found himself stepping into the living room, Cassius suddenly saw a short black-haired girl zip around a corner. She was wearing a loose T-shirt of his and had nothing on underneath. Her hair was also a bit wild, but it suited her quite nicely.

It was only then that he smelled the distinct odor of something burning.

"C-Cass… I… The cooking… W-Whyiz it so hard…? *Sniffle, Sniffle*"

Bella was not even faking her emotions. She was genuinely distressed.

A sigh resounded, and Cassius walked up to the sniffling girl. He was going to question why she was still in his house, but that would have to wait for later, it seemed.
