“How long are you talking to Sol!”

Sol was talking to Herve when Lepios came out from inside the house.

“You didn’t say anything extra, did you!”

“I didn’t, I didn’t! Don’t be so mad at me! We were just talking!
Right! Sol kun!”

“Uh, yes!”

“Look!”

After Lepios glared at Herve who said so, Lepios tugged on Sol’s arm.

“Sol, hurry up and go inside and put your stuff down! We’re going to the tower!”

“What, already?!”

“It’s fine right! There’s no reason for us to stay here much longer!”

“Leo”

Herve stops Lepios, who is about to pull Sol’s arm to go inside.

“Do it tomorrow.”

“It’s none of your business ……….”

“If you’re going with this group, you’re going to a dangerous place! If you go there in that condition, you’ll just be causing trouble for everyone!”

“……”

 
Lepios looked a little sulky as he turned away from Herve and silently went back into the house. Sol was a little shaken by seeing Lepios for the first time.

But Herve is not bothered by Lepios’ appearance and speaks to Sol with a smile on his face.

“Come on, Sol kun, come in, come in!”

“Uh, yes. ……”

“Don’t worry about it! Leo, he’s always like that at home!”

Sol’s eyes widened when Herve said that so frankly. If anything, Lepios always had an image of being calm and cool.

“Is that so ……?”

“That’s right! Ah, it’s not like we’re on bad terms or anything! If we were on bad terms, Leo wouldn’t have come here in the first place!”

Sure ……?”

That may be true, Sol thought. Despite the displeased look he had shown at his sister, he didn’t seem to be reluctant about coming here in the first place.

And so, Sol, following Herve’s lead, entered Lepios’ house.

 
They were ushered into what looked like a guest room. Celes and Carla were already waiting there. Lepios said that he went to his room.

The guest room had two beds and a sofa. Sol had always slept in the same room, but this time he thought he might as well sleep on the sofa or in Lepios’ room.

Celes looked at Sol and opened her mouth.

“I was just deciding with Carla where to sleep, and Sol will sleep on this side of the bed.”

“Hee? But you two?”

“I can’t sleep without Sol, and you know that, don’t you? That’s why I want to sleep in the same bed with you.”

“Eh!? No, but ……”

Sol looked at Carla, not knowing what to do. Carla looked at Sol with a thumbs up on her face, looking amused for some reason. Seeing this, Sol was absolutely confused and thought that Carla had misunderstood him.

The type of person Celes likes is someone who will serve without reward. So that’s not what Carla thinks.

As he was thinking this, Celes looked Sol up and down

“Sol. No?”

“Eh, ah, no, no, not that.”

Hearing that from Celes, Sol couldn’t help but nod. Celes was someone he liked, after all. In fact, it was good news for Sol.

“Really? I’m so happy!”

The person in question, Celes, was not embarrassed, but genuinely happy, and Sol wondered if she did not see him as a man. So Celes is probably inviting him to sleep with her as if he were her brother.

Sol glances at the bed where he plans to sleep. Unlike usual beds, it is a bed, so there is no distance between them. The futon is also a single quilt. So they would be sleeping in the same bed.

It will be fine. This happened once before, at the hideout of the bandits. Let’s not make the mistake of touching Celes so she won’t hate him. And let’s get up before Celes. Sol decided in his mind.

A short time later, Sol and others were invited to a meal. The meal was a warm home-cooked meal with medicinal herbs, different from Ceres’ cooking, and delicious.

When Sol asked why he had grown up on such food and Lepios’ cooking was so bad, Herve laughed out loud.

“He must not have been interested! Leo, no matter how many times I warn him, he eats while reading a book! It’s refreshing to see Leo eating normally now!”

“…… It was a long time ago!”

Saying that, Lepios turned away with a slightly mousy look on his face. Sol laughed a little because such a Lepios was too fresh.

But he was probably still depressed about the Rale incident. As soon as he finished his meal, he retreated to his room. Sol went to Lepios’ room to talk a little about tomorrow.

There was no answer when he knocked. When he had no choice but to open the door, he found Lepios lying on his bed, staring at it with a picture frame. He was unaware that Sol had entered.

“Lepios.”

He called out, and Lepios woke up as if startled.

“…… at least knock.”

“I did, but maybe it was too small. Sorry.”

“…… No, I was a little hazy myself.”

Sol glanced at Lepios’ hand. The one that Lepios was holding was a photo of him and Rale

“…… can I help you?”

Lepios said in a lower voice than usual.

“No, I wanted to talk about tomorrow with everyone.”

“Oh, yes, indeed. I will go to your room.”

Saying this, Lepios got up from the bed.

“Hey”

In truth, maybe he should have just left him alone. However, when he saw Lepios looking at Rale’s photo, Sol couldn’t help but say something.

“Do you need to have a proper talk with Rale?”
