"Well, you're busy, you're not in a hurry."

With that, Ilt slipped out of the tent.

"It's all said to wait a minute"

Tia sighed helplessly, looking at the sleeping Alan beside her, her cheeks flushed again.

――What was I thinking?

Tia quickly straightened her clothes and braided her hair back in a high curl at the back of her head. Everything was done, and Alan still hadn't woken up. Tia looked out through the branches, and Dusty was waving Erinius with Erinius, and on the side was Ilte, who was holding Erlang's legs and a small piece of grass in his mouth, and seemed to be grumbling. Looking up, Qile sat leisurely on the branch of one of the remaining trees, looking into the distance, but seemed to be aware of Tia's gaze, and Qile's face looked suspiciously at the temporary hut where she was.

- Oops

Tia spun around and leaned her back against the branch, but she didn't expect it to hit a strong chest.

"Oops"

Tia clutched her sore nose and looked up at the perpetrator with tears in her eyes—Alan was scratching her messy red hair, her eyes were ajar, and she was yawning widely.

"Morning Athia"

"Uh, you're early, Allen"

- Qile's perception is so sharp, it seems that he can't just stare at him in the future

Thinking wildly in his head, he didn't know that Alan had already leaned over half-crawling and half-walking.

"Tia, what's wrong with you? Faced so red."

Alan's broad palm touched Tia's forehead, and Tia unconsciously wanted to retreat, but was blocked by the branches behind her.

"I didn't burn it."

Alan didn't seem to be at ease, put down his hand, and directly put his forehead on it

"Wow, it's hot!"

Alan, who was pushed away by Tia, looked at her blankly,

"No, I'm just a little hot."

- Stupid Alan, you can't forget everything that just happened, how can you be!

Tia glared at Alan with some complaint, and the two looked at each other like this, and Alan's fiery eyes finally woke up from sleep, and the previous memories slowly poured into his mind

"Ahh

Facing the incoherent Alan, Tia laughed out loud,

"Alan, what are you doing? Tongues are fighting when they speak, hehe. ”

"I'm sorry I didn't do something that annoyed you"

Eren lowered his head like a child who had done something wrong. Tia reached out and touched his face,

"It's not a nasty thing, no matter what Alan does to me, I won't hate you, so, don't have such an expression, okay?"

"Tia"

Alan squeezed Tia's small hand, feeling her warmth and tenderness. The previous self, as if there was a fire burning in his chest, the desire to get this girl has become the only desire, as if he didn't do anything, his body would suffocate. Alan knew that it was indeed his own desire, but he was usually suppressed by himself, but due to the constant repetition of the magic in his body, the desire was stimulated, and the feeling of wanting to melt each other swallowed everything

"Tia, I just did that, don't you really mind?"

――I heard Tia say no, but she still didn't stop, can Tia really tolerate and accept such a self?

"Alan, I said I would have run away if it wasn't you. So, I know that's you, at least he's a part of you, as long as it's you, I can love, and I'll never leave. ”

Tia placed Alan's hand on her chest, and her heart was beating steadily and strongly, just like she was trying to comfort Eren at the moment.

"It's you, but it's not the whole you. Alan, what I love is all you have, so don't resist yourself because of me, as long as everything is moving in the right direction, that's fine. ”

-- Tia

Eren didn't speak, he took Thea in his arms. The girl in her arms is her most precious treasure, and she wants to be treated gently, but she doesn't seem to be able to do it well, who is she? Is there no other way but to accept this force? Although that self seems to be much stronger than it is now, can you really accept it calmly? Is that really me?

- Does that whole soul really exist under this body named Alan?

"Being"

"Huh?"

Tia's sudden answer made Eren look at her in surprise.

"I can hear Alan's inner voice."

Tia smiled brightly and looked up at Alan,

"That soul exists, whether it's the current Allen or the fierce Allen, it's the same soul, the same you. I don't know how to explain it, but I just know that because no matter which Allen it is, I can feel the existence of love, because you protected me at the last minute, so don't worry too much, okay? ”

"Hmm"

"Alan, Tia, we're ready to go, you guys."

Dusty, who had just arrived at the door, was dragged back by Ilte,

"It's all said, they're busy, why don't you understand the amorous?"

"Who doesn't understand the customs, can you be a little ghost and I understand the customs?"

There was a bickering between Dusty and Ilt at the door, and Alan and Tia in the room smiled at each other.

"You're so noisy all day long, aren't you tired?"

Eren straightened his hair and clothes and slipped out of the branches, his eyes narrowed as the sunlight pierced him.

"They have a good relationship, and I sometimes want to fight with Alan."

Tia came out later, her cloth was light and fluttering in the breeze, as light as an elf about to spread her wings and fly to the sky. Alan stepped forward and took her hand,

"We just have a different relationship than they do."

Feeling Ellen's warm and powerful hand, Tia smiled sweetly.

"By the way, where's Qile?"

Alan looked around and didn't see a shadow of Qile.

"He's explored the path before, this Phantom Forest seems to be quite large, and he can fly much faster than we can go."

Ilt tied Erinius around his waist and pointed to Qile, who was flying towards here not far away, and said,

"He's back."

Qile's wings fluttered with crystal powder, and the moment it landed, it turned into green smoke and dissipated into the air. (To be continued.) )
