In the end, I wasn't sure what Lucy's important story was.

The first important story was the Free Alliance, which Lucy couldn't begin to follow shortly after she put out the word.

You can't force me to wake you up, and I'm afraid of Lucy's grump when I do that.

Lucy's sleeping face was unusual.

You're supposed to be older than me, albeit just a little bit, but I don't think so very much.

However, I was curious what Lucy was about to say.

Free Alliance.

I know it's some kind of organization, but it's a name I've never heard of.

Lucy put that name in her mouth and said someone wanted me and Philia to meet.

I thought about what that meant.

I didn't dare to talk about it, but let alone the problem for Lucy is that she must have been chosen as the five greatest magicians of the Empire.

Lucy may be sent to the front line of the Greater Republic War, which increases in intensity, and this was the same for Sofia.

I want to avoid that somehow, but I have too little information.

I figured it out, but soon I realized what I needed to do wasn't.

Seeing Lucy tremble in the cold, I smiled and blanketed.

And "Good night, Dr. Lucy," he snapped small.

Exactly, I can't be in this room all night.

I stepped out the door of the room softly and sighed with relief.

Let's hurry back to our room.

Otherwise, someone in the room might notice my absence and come looking for me.

The other day I was working in the study late at night, and Philia came.

Unlike the one I had in my study this time, it's going to be a lot of misunderstandings if I find it.

And it was actually misunderstood.

Before I could walk a few steps, I was grabbed in the arm.

Looking back, there was Phyllia.

Filia, dressed in white negligee, looked frightened and lay her eyes down.

"Solon... you look scared"

"Excuse me. Did I scare you?

"I'm not..."

Maybe I shrunk my nerves more than I thought too in the Necropolis offensive operation.

I didn't know it was Philia who grabbed my arm, so I got on guard.

I guess that showed up on my face.

I smiled to reassure Philia.

"What's going on late this evening?

"That's my line. How come it's late at night and Solon's out of Lucy's room?

Phyllia pulls the sleeve of my clothes and says dissatisfied.

Shit.

Were they watching?

"There's something backwards? His face is bright red..."

"No... nothing"

"Hmm... I knew something was going on?

I held my head.

Philia was totally misunderstanding and she didn't seem to convince me that we were just drinking together.

"Let's tell Sophia and Clarice, too."

"Give me a break about that.... or back to the first question, why is Master Filia in the hallway?

Though I thought Filia slept well in her bedroom.

Phyllia turned away a lot.

When I saw the trick, I found that the reason was as good as I imagined.

"After all, did you come looking for me?

"Because... when I woke up, Solon wasn't in my room..."

"Oh, you know what?"

"I had a dream. Dream of Solon dying in Necropolis"

Philia stared at me.

I do think I almost died in Necropolis many times.

Each time Philia would have been anxious.

"Excuse me. I made you worry. But I won't break my promise not to leave Master Philia alone."

I fell off with Philia on the way to Necropolis and promised her that after we met again.

"Then will you sleep next to me today?

"Huh? You always sleep in the same room"

"Yeah. I want you to sleep with me in the same bed."

I was surprised.

Exactly. I feel like there's a problem with that.

"What Sophia and Clarice say..."

"I'm sure you'll bake a lot of yakimochi. I'm sure Lucy will too."

Phyllia grinned as she shrugged in fun.

If I was confused as to what was going on, I realized that Philia was looking a little strange.

I feel kind of rough breathing.

I also feel that my face is red, and not just shy.

I said, "May I have a word," and then I put my hand on Philia's forehead.

Hiccup, and Phyllia breathes briefly.

"Solon's hand...... so cold"

"Master Phyllia is having an amazing fever. Your body should be pretty tough, too."

With that said, Philia turned a blind eye.

I guess it's a picture star.

"You can't come looking for me if you can't."

"Because I couldn't sleep without Solon."

When they say that, it's really my fault.

If I hadn't left the room and gone to Lucy's room, Philia wouldn't have had to come looking for me.

Phyllia fluttered, so I hug her in a hurry.

I thought about it for a second, and then, hey, I almost hugged Philia.

"Oh, Solon!

"It will be hard to walk, so let me take you to your room like this. Don't you like it?

"Yes, I don't hate it... I'm a little embarrassed."

"Shall I put it down then?"

"Yeah, I'd rather stay like this"

Phyllia shyly looked away, but happily loosened her cheeks.

"Will Solon see you?

"Absolutely."

"What about sleeping with you?

"Uh, yes. I will if you wish, Master Philia."

"Yay! Ah... but if you have a cold, you shouldn't fall for Solon."

"Probably not a cold,"

I thought about it.

Hopefully I simply had a high fever due to the fatigue of the Necropolis offense.

I feel disturbed by the flow of Philia's magic.

Maybe it has something to do with Philia being a descendant of the Demon King.

Let's talk to Lucy tomorrow. Professors at magic schools should be familiar with these kinds of problems.

Lucy kept relying on me and told me she hadn't been able to do anything like a master.

But that's not true.

True, me and Lucy are close, and I feel like friends, no matter how bad.

But for me, Lucy was a reliable master.

Lucy taught me a lot as a master.

Just the same thing, can I make you a philia as a master?

As I stared at Phyllia in my arm, Phyllia had a bright red face and laughed at her.
