The mansion of the Count Temperis house.

Ashley and her father, Count Temperis. Count Asla Temperis, the head of the family, were both talking.

"Ashley?"

"Yes. I know, Father. For the sake of those who have been chosen, I will help you to defeat the Demon King."

"Right... sorry. I can't do anything... I can only send my daughter to a dangerous place... I'm so sorry."

Ashley had been chosen as a brave party member of the Kingdom of Westeria by God's guidance.

Ashley was a little confused thinking about something and then clearly declared to his father, Count Asla, that he would defeat the Demon King.

The father, Count Asura, could only send his daughter out. All he could do was regret himself and apologize to his daughter Ashley.

Why are you two having this conversation with my father and daughter?

That's...

Because we had officially received a summons order from the King's Capital.

This is a royal life. Of course, no one can turn you down.

"Father, don't worry. I will defeat the Demon King soon and return to this city. Besides, the brave have been chosen not only for this Kingdom of Westernia, but also for the eastern great kingdom of Easla and the southern great kingdom of Sausatris, by God's guidance, and the brave are born. So it's okay."

"Right... right"

Count Asla was forced to convince herself of her daughter Ashley's words of concern not to worry.

"So, Ashley? What about Rayphone?

"I haven't... said..."

Ashley answered with a slightly sad look on the words of her father, Count Asla, who switched stories and asked.

Earlier, Ashley was confused and thinking about Rayphone.

"Ashley and Rayfone have always been like sisters and brothers."

"Right......"

Ashley doesn't deny she's different from her father, Count Asla, who talks nostalgic.

"For once, I asked Rayphone if he'd adopt me, but he refused."

"Ha-ha-ha, I miss you, Father."

"Oh, yeah"

Remember, it was Ashley smiling and laughing and Earl Asla snorting gently at it.

Uh-huh.

When I was six years old Rayphone and seven years old Ashley.

Rayphone, who had come to visit the Temperis family mansion.

Count Asla had taken the suggestion to Rayphone.

"Rayphone? Wouldn't you like to be my adopted son?

"Adopted son?"

There's no way a six-year-old can figure out his adopted son or anything.

Rayphone was tilting his neck.

"Eh, well, I mean, wouldn't you be my son? Then Ashley becomes Rayphone's sister, and we can both be family and live together. Even from living alone today."

"Doesn't"

Rayfon responded instantly before the end of the story of Count Asla, who explains it plainly.

Rayfon lost his parents when he was younger than he is now, and from then on, he lived alone.

"Why Rayphone?

Count Asura asked Rayphone why, who gave Rayphone a slightly surprised look at him for turning down his adoption invitation.

"Because I'm fine alone. I don't have a family, but all the people in Tester's city and the Count are nice to me. That's why I'm perfectly fine. And..."

Rayphone replies hazy with a childish smile.

"And?"

"And what kind of punitive game is Ash playing with your sister?"

"Punishment, game?

Count Asura gave a Kyotong look to Rayfon's unexpected words, which he continued to speak.

My eyes are dotted.

You know, you showed up at those two places.

"What a punitive game! Ray!"

Ashley in the shape of a ghost.

"Yabba! That's why I'm running away."

That's what I said, Rayphone, who ran away from the front of Count Ashley to escape.

"Wait! Don't run, Ray!

Ashley following it.

Ashley's hand holds a wooden sword.

"Ash is going to kill me!

"Half-kill? So I forgive you, so stay together, Ray!

"I don't even like to die half the time!"

"Wait! Ray!

Rayphone desperately fleeing and Ashley chasing it with a wooden sword swinging around.

"Ha ha ha ha... is that a punishment game"

Earl of Asla laughs and laughs at those two and squeals with a pleasant, tender look on his face.

"Count! Do something about my daughter!

Rayphone asking Count Asla for help.

But...

"Ashley! Almost there. Come on!

"Yes! Father!

Count Asla was on the side of his daughter Ashley.
