Roy ignored everything else and focused on the two little girls who had rushed towards him.

"Kami-sama!"

Enju Aihara and Kayo Senju both leaped into his arms, their small bodies trembling with excitement.

All the Cursed Children who had received his protection had become his believers.

And as his believers, they naturally recognized him.

"You're Enju Aihara, right?" Roy asked.

"Yes, Kami-sama," Enju replied with a cheerful smile.

"And you're Kayo Senju?"

"Yes, Kami-sama," Kayo confirmed with a nod—her expression blank.

Although she was also happy to see him, her face didn't show any emotion.

"Enju, Kayo, just call me Roy-onii-chan," Roy said with a smile.

The two girls exchanged glances, then said in unison, "Roy-onii-chan!"

"Good girls. Here's a treat for you." Roy gave them each a piece of candy.

Kisara, watching them interact, was a bit surprised and even slightly jealous.

Roy then took the two little girls and Kisara back to the apartment.

He wanted to give the girls a bath and change their clothes.

As he was playing with them in the bathroom, Tina, who had been sleeping, also joined in.

Things got a bit chaotic.

But they were just little girls. Roy wasn't tempted.

After their bath, he dressed them in cute princess dresses he had created with his magic.

"You're all so adorable. Come here and give me a kiss," Roy said, puckering his lips.

Enju, Kayo, and Tina each gave him a peck on the cheek.

Kisara watched them with a hint of envy.

"Dinner's ready! Come and eat!" she called out, setting the table.

They all enjoyed a delicious meal together.

Since there was only one bedroom, they all slept together.

Kisara slept on Roy's left side, while Enju and Kayo snuggled between him and Kisara.

Tina was even bolder and slept on top of him.

Kisara was a bit annoyed, but there was nothing she could do.

——

In the middle of the night, they were awakened by a tapping sound at the window.

Kisara opened her eyes and saw a beautiful girl with snow-white skin and long black hair standing outside—wearing a white dress.

"Seitenshi?" Kisara was surprised. Why was Seitenshi here so late at night?

"Roy—wake up! Seitenshi is here!" she whispered, shaking Roy awake.

Roy had already sensed Seitenshi's presence but had chosen to ignore her.

Although Seitenshi was undeniably beautiful, she was just a puppet.

But since Kisara had woken him up, he couldn't pretend to be asleep anymore.

"Kisara—what's wrong?"

"Seitenshi is here," Kisara explained.

——

They let Seitenshi in.

Kisara made her a cup of tea.

"Thank you," Seitenshi said politely, still blushing as she looked at them.

Kisara also blushed, embarrassed that Seitenshi had seen them like that.

But she was also curious about why Seitenshi was here so late.

"Seitenshi, what brings you here?" she asked.

Seitenshi hesitated, then sighed. "The government has been in chaos since Kikunojou Tendō's death. I can't control the situation anymore..."

As expected, the other factions were vying for power.

No one respected her authority as the leader.

And Seitenshi could only watch helplessly.

In the end, she had decided to run away.

But she didn't know where to go, so she came here.

She and Kisara were classmates and friends. After all, she had helped Kisara with her Initiator application.

Kisara, hearing her explanation, was speechless.

She hadn't expected Seitenshi, the ruler of this region, to simply run away.

But it was probably a wise decision. Who knew what would happen to her once the power struggle ended?

She might be forced to remain a puppet—or even worse, be killed.

"So you want to stay here?" Kisara asked.

"Yes," Seitenshi replied with a nod.

"Unfortunately, we don't have any spare rooms," Kisara said, spreading her hands apologetically.

Seitenshi's face fell.

If no one took her in, she wouldn't survive long in this chaotic world.

Roy—seeing her pitiful expression, couldn't help but feel sorry for her.

Although she was just a figurehead, she was still an innocent girl.

"We have a spare room at home," he suddenly said.

"Eh?" Kisara was confused.

"Follow me."

Roy stood up and led them to the bedroom, then used his magic to create a new room beside theirs.

Kisara's eyes widened in surprise. She hadn't known there was another room here.

"You can stay here," Roy said, opening the door to the new room. It was fully furnished.

"Thank you—um, I don't know your name yet..." Seitenshi said.

"Just call me Roy," Roy replied.

"Thank you, Roy," Seitenshi said with a grateful smile.

"Alright, now let me rest," Roy said, waving his hand dismissively, then pulled Kisara towards their room.

Kisara blushed—embarrassed by his public display of affection.

Seitenshi also blushed, seeing Roy pull Kisara away.

She muttered something under her breath, then went to her room to rest!

——

The next morning, Seitenshi felt bad for staying without contributing, so she woke up early and helped Kisara prepare breakfast.

Roy, meanwhile—was busy dressing up the three sleepy little girls.

He tied Enju's long crimson hair into twintails.

"Enju, you look so cute like this," he commented, admiring the adorable little girl.

"Hehe, really?" Enju giggled, her eyes sparkling with joy!

——

In the kitchen, Kisara and Seitenshi were chatting.

"Seitenshi, are you really not going back?" Kisara asked casually as she washed the vegetables.

Seitenshi flinched. She wanted to be a good ruler, but she lacked the ability and the power.

And she had been manipulated by Kikunojou Tendō for so long that she had no real authority.

She could only watch helplessly as the region descended into chaos.

Seeing that Seitenshi didn't answer, Kisara shrugged. She was partly responsible for the current situation.

But she didn't regret her actions.

"I guess the only one who can solve this mess is Roy," she said with a sigh.

Seitenshi's ears perked up.

Could Roy really solve this?

She had just met him and had assumed he was just an average person.

But Kisara's words made him seem extraordinary.

The current chaos in the region wasn't just due to the power struggle within the government. The Cursed Children's rebellion was also a major factor.

Even if Kikunojou Tendō were to be revived—it wouldn't help.

The conflict between humans and Cursed Children would only escalate.

And the Cursed Children, who had once been oppressed, were now protected by a mysterious power and couldn't be harmed.

If a full-scale conflict erupted, humanity would surely lose.

These were Seitenshi's worries.

But Kisara didn't seem to be lying. This made Seitenshi curious about Roy.

"Breakfast is ready! Roy, come and eat!" Kisara called out, setting the table.

Seitenshi also helped carry the dishes.

But she tripped over her long skirt.

Just as she braced herself for the fall, she felt a pair of strong arms catching her.

But the arms were wrapped around her in a rather suggestive way—and Seitenshi blushed as she quickly pulled away.

"Thank you," she mumbled.

"Don't mention it," Roy replied with a shrug, placing the dishes on the table.

He couldn't help but think, 'As expected of a "flower vase" girl. She's beautiful, but she can't even carry a plate without tripping.'

——

After breakfast. Roy suggested going out to buy some clothes for the little girls.

"Going out? But it's chaotic outside. And the Tendō Civil Security Corporation hasn't received any requests yet..." Kisara said with a sigh.

She had just started her business and was eager to get to work, but the recent events had put everything on hold.

Seitenshi also looked troubled. She was a public figure. If she went out, she would be recognized instantly.

"It's fine. The shops should still be open, right?" Roy said with a shrug.

"Seitenshi, you can come too if you want."

"Eh? Me? But..."

"It's okay. I'll make sure no one recognizes you. Besides, you didn't bring any clothes with you, did you? Are you planning on wearing that dress forever?"

"Alright then." Seitenshi blushed and agreed.

——

They soon got ready to leave.

"But is it really okay for me to go out like this?" Seitenshi asked, looking at her white dress.

This was the outfit she usually wore for TV interviews.

She would be recognized instantly.

"Don't worry, it'll be fine," Roy assured her, taking her hand and pulling her along.

He had cast a spell on her, so others would only see her as an average girl.

Only Roy and his group could see her true appearance.

"Slow down—slow down..." Seitenshi complained, panting.

"....."

But then she noticed that the people around them didn't seem to recognize her.

She was surprised and a bit saddened.

After all—these were her people, but they didn't know her anymore.

Roy ignored her complicated emotions and continued walking, pulling the three little girls along with him.

Although the region was in chaos—the shops were still open. Life had to go on for people.
