“Now, what…”
“Then let’s go!”

Kayla led Shael and me by the hand. He is strong for his age, despite his youthful appearance.
I think it’s too strong.
Shael was dragged along, embarrassed by Kayla’s strength, and I had no choice but to follow Kayla.
Of course, there was no way the villainess would quietly follow. Shael was making a face as if he had to say something…
I quickly took out the snake orb. Confirming this, Shael hardened his face.
You can expect Sael. If I regenerate the snake’s orb… This innocent child will make fun of Shael.
Through this, I was able to barely stop the evil woman from pouring out abusive words on the innocent child.
That’s how I followed Kayla. It was a bonus to see the happy gazes from the surroundings.

Kayla’s light blue hair. It was the same as Shael’s. Even holding Sael with both hands.
So it was natural for people to see us as a family. A family where everyone can see happiness.
Shael only punished them by glaring at them.
Because Shael was busy just walking along with Kyla, who is very muscular.
I walked around the zoo for a while like that.
I saw the small puppy I saw with Shael before I knew it. A dog that turns into a huge beast when angry.
“⋯.”
“⋯ Wow, cute!”
Not knowing that Shael and I were frozen in silence, Kayla proudly walked towards the puppy.

Kaeng-!
This time, the dog barks the same way when he sees Kayla. If it was just like before, it would soon turn into a beast of enormous size.
I told Kayla before that.
“⋯Kayla, how about seeing other animals first?”
Shael, who was next to him, was also unconsciously nodding his head. But Kayla didn’t stop.

Kyla even started petting her puppy. There was no way that guy with a bad personality would like it.

Kaeng-!
The guy started to struggle. It was a sign before he bulked up. But this time it was different.
The guy, who had been staring at Kayla for a while, shrunk his bloated body and became quiet.
Then he lay down as if performing a charming act.
Beep.
“It’s nice. Be kind!”
“⋯.”
Does that beast discriminate against people?
He mercilessly turned into a beast in front of me and Shael, but this time he even acts cute.
No matter how much Shael glared at him, it was strange. Wasn’t she barking at Kayla just a little while ago?
Anyway, it was fortunate. If the situation from before happened, Kayla might cry.
“Huh? It’s cute Ande… why aren’t you coming?”

Kayla looked at Shael and said. Of course, even with these words, Shael was still stiff.

Kayla turned her head and looked again at the little beast in front of her eyes.
“Wrinkle! I wish I could whine. Your name!”
⋯You even give me a name? To the guy at the zoo?
To be honest, I didn’t like the name either.
It was clear that Kyla, like her villainess, had an idiosyncratic personality.
“Touch our gonggoongi!”
“No, it’s okay, let’s look around the other places.”
Thankfully, Kayla moved on with her words. Sael exhaled as if relieved.

Kayla came out again and held Shael’s hand. At the same time, Kayla said.
“Don’t go to the zoo, go somewhere else!”
“⋯⋯No.”
It was Shael who answered those words. Shael shook his head, denying Kayla’s words.

Kayla looked at me. Same with Shael. They both seemed to ask for my opinion.
Actually, as Shael said, it was correct to go around the zoo more.
I came here at Sael’s suggestion.
In the first place, in the world of this novel, the person I consider the most important was Shael.
However, I couldn’t easily refuse Kayla’s offer.
It was because I felt a sense of familiarity.
Maybe I was captivated by Kayla’s cuteness in that short amount of time.
So I came up with the best solution. It was an offer that would satisfy both Kayla and Shael.
“I heard that there is a villa owned by the Azbel family near here. How about going there?”
Shael frowned at those words. I added quickly.
“I’ll make you a dessert.”
There was no way Shael would reject this offer. This time she turned her gaze to Kayla.

Kayla also nodded her head approvingly.
Actually, taking a child to a villa without permission from the parents is something I’m reluctant to do, but…
The weather was getting colder. Honestly, I don’t know why I left such a young child alone now.
Apart from safety, children need love.
In addition to that, for some reason, I keep feeling like I’m going to be okay.
These were the reasons I was able to take Kayla to her villa.
* * *
The villa of the Azbel family. As expected of a duke’s villa, it was enormous.
There was a magic that only those allowed could enter. Through Shael’s magic, Kayla and I were able to enter as well.
In fact, I wondered if Kayla would be surprised by the size of her villa, but ⋯ surprisingly, Kayla didn’t seem to have any idea.
I think you said you were five years old, is that so?
It was fortunate though. I was worried that, in case, seeing the size of the villa, it would make Sael and my status awkward.
“Follow me.”
As soon as I entered the villa, Shael showed me to her cooking room.
“⋯⋯Are you making dessert the moment you walk in?”
“Yes.”
Shael answered confidently. Still, since it was my suggestion, I followed it without a word.
When she arrived at the cooking room, Shael stood still and started watching me.
Predictably, watching me make the dessert, it was clear he was trying to figure out the recipe.
Is this why the closer you get to the cooking room, the better you seem?
For now, I left Shael watching me behind and started making dessert.
The villainess thinks she can memorize the recipe, but ⋯⋯ it won’t be possible.
There were so many ingredients in the world of fantasy novels, and most of them were stimulating.
The stimulating ingredients were most of the ingredients for the delicious dessert Sael wanted.
So, a slight discrepancy, different from the quantity, creates a completely different taste.
To begin with, Sael, who has a bad memory, will show a huge difference from this recipe.
Thanks to that, I was able to confidently start making dessert in front of Shael.

Kayla also, unlike her young age, she knew how to cook. She started making something by herself ⋯⋯.
A wicked woman worse than Kayla started to disturb me.
“Why is this so much?”
“That’s good enough.”
“The more sugar the better, right?”
I tried to ignore it.
“These cookies look good, so make more.”
Orders were a bonus to the person who made them.
“⋯⋯ Ha. If you spray this much…”
It was the evil woman’s advice that made me sigh. However, there was no further follow-up.
It was because I threw the cheesecake I was making into Shael’s mouth.
That cheesecake had enough flavor to satisfy the wicked woman.
I said to Shael, who was eating cheesecake while stopping to interrupt for a moment.
“You seem to hate it, so I will give all of these to the servants of the villa.”
Shael, who was enjoying the cheesecake, was taken aback for a moment, then she said.
“⋯Ah, looking at it now, it looks fine.”
“It’s late. I won’t make cheesecake anymore.”
“⋯.”
Shael was silent for a moment at my words. Now, how can I make fun of the wicked woman more?
Just then, support fire came in. It was Kayla.
“⋯⋯, Am I doing it?”
“Yes. Of course you do Would you like a piece now?”
“⋯Ah! Thank you!”
Yum.

Kayla puts the cheesecake in her mouth in front of Shael. I even handed Kayla the cookies I had made in advance.
It was also Sael’s favorite cookie. This too went into Kayla’s mouth.
“Oh, delicious!”
“Yeah, isn’t it delicious?”
“⋯.”
Shael just stared at me in silence.
I sent her ridicule to Shael and took the dessert I made and headed to the restaurant. Desserts and food that Kayla made too.
For a five-year-old to make, these dishes looked very good. Can a five-year-old cook in the first place?
He seems to be a very smart kid.
I put desserts on the table. Even the desserts and food made by Kayla.
Then Shael was eating only what I made.
Even then, when I was about to eat the dessert⋯ I snatched the dessert right before it was caught in my hand.
She was a greedy villainess.
When Shael was eating only my dessert. Saying it like Kayla was upset, she handed Shael her cookie.
“⋯Try eating what I made!”
“⋯.”
Shael ponders for a while. To be honest, I didn’t think Shael would eat something else and leave the things I made.
I carefully took out the snake orb and showed it to Shael.
It meant to eat in silence. I can’t open my eyes to reject such a cute child’s favor.
“It must be more delicious than what you ate!”
Would it taste better than the one I made? It was amazing confidence.
To be honest, it’s amazing that a five-year-old has these feelings, but I don’t know why, but I feel competitive.
Like when arguing with Sael.
It was the sound of Shael chewing her cookies. Shael widened her eyes.
“How are you?”
“⋯.”
Shael is silent for a moment at Kayla’s question. I said quickly.
“As expected, wouldn’t the one made by my fiance taste better?”
“⋯.”
Shael didn’t even respond to my words. Shael just put more cookies Kayla made into his mouth.
It was easy to guess what it meant. It meant that what Kayla made was more delicious than I thought.
It took a long time for Sael to speak again. She finally lifted her head as Shael, who was intent on eating her cookie, lifted her head.

Kayla looked at me with a sly smile, and Shael looked at me and said.
“⋯⋯The sole use of your fiancé is gone.”
⋯⋯ What?
