Un! I grouwn-up !” 

My compliment made her put her hand on her waist and gave me a dashing look. 

The confident baby rabbit’s appearance was out of the world cuteness.  

I held the baby rabbit slightly. 

I sneaked a glance at Mrs.
Rabbit, and fortunately, she was watching this place with a smile.  

Ah… The fur is so soft.  

I wanted to hug and roll around all day long. 

“Now~! What kind of snack does Kathy like?” 

The baby rabbit’s eyes sparkled. 

While I was giving the baby rabbit snacks and candy, Alfred sneaked up on me.  

PINCH

Alfred stabbed my arm and gave me a silent look. 

At the same time, the place where his eyes went was Kathy in my arms. 

He smiled as he was restless to hug the baby rabbit. 

The little baby rabbit was sent to Alfred’s arms.  

He picked up the baby very carefully and made a happy face.  

Unfortunately, the happiness did not last long.  

This is because Mrs.
Rabbit, who was watching when Alfred hugged the baby, looked anxious.  

Well, it’s not like it used to be in the early days when she came screaming.  

I took the baby from Alfred and returned it to the mother’s arms.  

The baby rabbit seemed unaware since she was distracted by snacks and candies and returned to her mother’s arms. 

“Thank you for the snack, Sir Sihyeon.”  

“Hahaha, it’s fine.
By the way, I didn’t see Miru today.
Where is she?” 

Normally, she would have come right away, but she didn’t show up today.  

I was worried because I remembered what happened yesterday. 

“Miru? I don’t know.
I think she’s probably at home.
Usually, when I don’t see her, she often takes care of her mother at home.” 

“She takes care of her mother?” 

“Oh! You didn’t know…It’s because her mother is not feeling well and spends a lot of time at home.”  

At first, I looked blank hearing Miru’s family’s situation. 

“Then, is her father…? “

“I heard he died working in the city.”

“Um….” 

She was such a bright child that I never dreamed that she would be having such a family situation.  

After handing out all the snacks to the children, I planned to go to see Lagos, but I thought I had to postpone my schedule for a while.  

“Can I know where Miru lives?” 

I got the location of Miru’s house with the friendly guidance of Mrs.
Rabbit.  

I headed to the outskirts of the village. 

The carriage came to a stop at a narrow road. 

“Senior, shall we walk from here?”  

“ Yes.
Let’s stop the carriage nearby and find a place where the horses can rest.” 

The horses pulling the carriage grazed and tied them to a place where they could rest. 

I started walking with the luggage containing snacks for Miru.  

Not long after I started walking, I could feel someone’s presence on the other side of the narrow street. 

“Oh? Who is this? The benefactor of the village Sir Sihyeon?” 

It was Derick, who caused trouble yesterday.

I felt uncomfortable meeting him, but for now, I greeted him with a smile. 

“Hello, Mr.
Derick… is that right?’ 

“Oh, my God! I’m at a loss for you to remember the name of a nobody.”  

Is he really admiring me or is he being sarcastic… 

I frowned a little looking at his behavior. 

His body reeked of alcohol as he approached.  

“Are you going to my sister’s house?”  

“Oh… yes, I brought some snacks and candy for the kids.
I’m going to give it to Miru.” 

“Oh! Snacks are good.
Should I try one?”  

He reached out to the snack I was holding without asking my consent.  

As soon as I was about to be choked by his endless rudeness, Alfred intervened.  

“Hey, eye-shore.
Get out of here.”  

“Hahaha, why are you being so sensitive? I wanted to be friendly…”  

“I told you to get out of here right now.” 

A ghastly force poured out of Alfred’s body.  

Derick recoiled, flinching reflexively.  

For the first time, the smile disappeared from his face.  

“Oh, oh?! Come to think of it, I’ll be late for my appointment.
I’ve got to get going.”  

He stepped aside with a lame excuse.  

As he got farther, especially from Alfred, he smiled again and spoke.  

“If you want to hang out with me, come to the bar.
I’ll be having a drink with my friends for the first time in a while.” 

He quickly disappeared from the narrow street. 

Alfred and I looked at the place where he had disappeared with a ridiculous expression.

“That’s him.
right?”  

“Huh? How did you find out? Did you hear from Andras?”  

“Yes, he said when I told him we would be coming here today.
He told me to beware of the odd cat Beast-man in the village”  

Naturally, the image of Andras, who was serious yesterday, came to my mind.  

It seemed like he was quite worried. 

We started walking down the narrow street again. 

After a while, a cute wooden fence and a small house appeared. 

Of course there wasn’t a doorbell, so I was confused whether I should call Miru or knock on the door.  

As I was thinking about what to do in front of the door, the wooden door opened itself with a creak sound. 

“Who are you…? Huh? Candy Uncle?!”

“Hi, Miru.” 

Miru was surprised to see me. 

I felt a little happy looking at her surprised expression.  

Miru, who looked pleased after being surprised, suddenly became sullen. 

‘What is it? Was it rude to suddenly come?’ 

“Why, what’s wrong, Miru?” 

When asked with confusion by her unexpected reaction, Miru replied with depressed eyes.

“You’re here because of what happened yesterday, right? I’ll work really hard.
So can you let me keep working in the strawberry field? Please!” 

“That’s not why I’m here.” 

“Eh? Then…? 

“I’m here to give you snacks and candy myself because I can’t see you today.” 

“Really?” 

“Of course.
Why would I lie? Look! I really brought it here.” 

I showed Miru the snack I was holding, since I couldn’t erase her anxious look yet. 

Eventually Miru relieved herself of her anxiety.  

“I thought you’d tell me not to come out to the strawberry field from now on…”  

“Why would I do that when everyone praises Miru for working really hard?”  

When I patted her head in praise, the cat girl gurgled and made a pleasant sound.  

“Oh! I let you stay outside for too long.
Come inside Uncle.” 

“I came just to give you snacks and candy and go…”  

“Oh, that’s not fair.
Hurry up and come in.
My mom really wanted to see you.” 

Miru pulled my hand recklessly.  

Watching it, Alfred smiled and said with an awkward face.  

“Then I’ll be waiting outside…” 

“What are you talking about, Demon brother? Hurry up and come in.
Quick!”  

Alfred, trying to get out, was also caught in Miru’s hand.  

We were forced to enter the house by the little cat girl.
