……
Rudy...
So warm...
This is……
My head was being held in Rudy's arms...
"Silphie, you're probably having another nightmare. Don't be afraid, I'll always be with you."

Chapter Thirty-Three: Home (Part Eight)
……
I held the "sacred object" in my hands.
Ms. Luo Qixi, what would you do if you were in her shoes?
"boom!"
"cough cough"
Suddenly, something blasted open the wall.
Next to this wall is Silphie's bedroom.
As the smoke cleared, a still-shaken girl sat on the bed behind the wall.
It was obvious that she was the one who blasted the wall open.
There may no longer be time for me to ask questions of the "gods".
A feeling resonates deep within me—a feeling of loss.
I'm very likely to lose Sylphie.
Yesterday, when I stopped trying to hug her, she reacted very clearly, saying that I didn't need her anymore. It was even more obvious at lunchtime; when I made it clear that I didn't have romantic feelings for her, her reaction was even stronger.
With empty eyes and rambling words, it's impossible to predict what will happen next.
Today, Hilfi can use magic to blast open walls. I wonder when she'll use magic on me, or even on herself.
This kind of thing must never happen.
Paul is right, only I can save her.
"Rudy!"
"Silphie!"
Paul and Janis rushed into the room, and when Hilfi saw the two of them, her eyes were filled with fear.
Although Paul and Janice meant no harm, they were simply worried about the two of us.
But she was so frightened that she sat on the bed trembling.
I have to do something...
……
I walked over gently and held her in my arms; her thin, small body was shivering.
She hugged me too, her two soft, slender arms wrapping around my waist and back.
Although her thin arms didn't look very strong, she held me tightly.
Let's just consider all those unpleasant things as a dream, Silphie.
"Silphie, you're probably having another nightmare. Don't be afraid, I'll always be with you."
"Well……"
The sound was very faint, but I could hear it.
At this moment, the idea of becoming a NEET again completely disappeared, because Sylphie needed me, and even for Sylphie's sake, I couldn't let myself sink into despair.
The little angel peeked out from my arms, tears welling in her eyes, and said in a slightly choked voice:
“I’ve always been afraid, afraid that Rudy won’t want me anymore…”
"Silly Silphie, I will always be with you."
Although I don't know when she will go back to that state, at least I will face it with her.
Hilfi slowly raised her head, her eyes meeting mine.
She gently closed her eyes, and I knew what that meant.
I slowly moved my hands up to support her delicate face.
Unlike her cold hands, her cheeks were actually a little hot.
I closed my eyes, preparing for the sacred moment.
……
"Oh dear, children, breakfast is ready!"
Janice, being held by Paul, said with a slightly mischievous tone.
Paul once again wore an expression that said, "He's truly my son."
This Paul...
I didn't even notice the two of them were there... although I think I heard them go into the bedroom.
When I came to my senses, Hilfi was looking shyly to the side, her two slender ears already bright red, and were adorably swaying up and down.
Hilfi is so cute.
……
"Rudy, when are you planning to leave?"
The sword training in the morning proceeded as usual.
As long as I don't take Paul's advanced swordsmanship too seriously, I can barely handle it.
"I plan to take Silphie to La Noah Magic University next month."
Considering the journey takes about a year and a half, staying at home until next month is quite appropriate. Besides, summer is approaching, and the further north you go, the cooler the weather will be. Otherwise, staying too long in the cold winter would be quite difficult.
"Really."
Paul's tone was a little somber, perhaps hoping I would stay longer.
"If you encounter any difficulties in college, remember to write home."
"I know, but we haven't left yet."
"There's a flaw!"
While I was speaking, Paul turned around and hid his sword, lunging at me.
"I'm a mid-level Sword God, Father, please be serious."
"Swish"
As Paul was saying some cool things, he slashed my wrist with his sword, sending the sword flying far away.
"It seems you still have a long way to go to catch up with your father, Rudy!"
Paul began to get carried away with his success.
"Yes Yes Yes"
I walked to the side, picked up the wooden sword, and continued to strike the Sword God Style pose.
"However, Rudy, I suggest that you and Sylphie, if possible, should definitely travel with the caravan. The journey is long, and caravans usually employ bodyguards. As long as the pay is sufficient, your safety should not be a problem."
Paul brandished a sword, striking a lecturing pose.
But what he said does make sense. Various situations can arise on the road, and traveling in a group, such as a caravan, is definitely safer.
"Yes, I understand, Father."
"Tomorrow I'll go to town to find a craftsman to repair the house. Tonight you and Silphi will be sharing a room, so don't accidentally make a move on her."
"Yes, I understand, Father."
Come to think of it, my bedroom and Sylphie's bedroom are separated by only one wall. This morning, Sylphie even blasted a hole in it, so we could easily pass each other.
Paul's reminder was spot on; I was so oblivious I'd completely forgotten. But judging from his expression, it seemed like he was already subtly hinting at the incredible thing I was going to do tonight.
Time flew by and it was noon. I hadn't felt so relaxed and happy since I got home.
When night fell, there was no longer a barrier between my room and Hilfi's.
Sylphie~ Hehehe
"Hilufi, you can sleep with Noren Aisha tonight. You can squeeze into their bed if you want."
Janice shattered my illusions from the very beginning.
"My brother seems a bit down."
"Brother must want to do something to Sister Hilfi, but unfortunately, Sister Hilfi belongs to me and Aisha tonight."
Norren and Aisha also agreed on the same line, and it seems that they have reached a consensus on this matter.
Hilfi sat to one side, her face flushed with embarrassment, and I was afraid she would react the same way as yesterday.
"Yes, I understand, Aunt Janice."
Then she replied to Janice shyly, it seems my consideration was somewhat unnecessary.
"Rudy, teach me Saint-level magic tomorrow!"
Hilfi straightened up and looked at me very seriously, though her voice was still very shy.
"Alright, in return, I'll leave my superior healing spells to Sylphie as well."

Chapter Thirty-Four: Interlude (Part One)
……
"Alice, wake up! If you don't get up, the Sperud tribe will come and eat you!"
"Rudeus... Good morning."
……
"Miss, it's time for you to get up. Master and Madam are waiting for you to have breakfast."
"Oh……"
Rudius is already gone.
About two or three days...
Every morning, it's as if Rudius is still here, as if I caught him stealing my underwear yesterday.
Life went on as usual. At mealtimes, I would first pick up a piece of bread, then practice with Girenouille, and in the afternoon I would learn etiquette from Miss Edna. Although I didn't really like it, I could still grit my teeth and keep learning because Rudius had instructed me to do so before he left.
In the evenings, I would practice reading and writing with Gilead. Sometimes, when I wasn't sure if I had written something correctly, I would take it to the library to ask my father, and he seemed to enjoy it when I asked him questions.
Rudius's absence doesn't seem to have affected me much...
……
"Lord Philip, Lady Hilda, if possible, I would like to take Miss Alice to the Sword Sanctuary to meet my master."
I don't think I've ever seen her speak during meals except for seeing Kyrie Isaac staring at the table and drooling.
Today, Gilead seems to have absolutely no desire to eat.
I've heard Kyrie Irvine mention before that he'd take me to the Sword Sanctuary for training, adventurer! To explore dungeons! To fight all sorts of monsters! I've wanted to do that for ages!
"Father, I think..."
