Wren's eyes shoot open, he carefully removed himself from the grasps of the two people holding him ever so tightly. A sharp pain hit his head, and he fell down, making a loud thud echo in the ballroom. After he felt the impact, Wren couldn't help but make sure the other two with him didn't wake up due to the sound. He let out a sigh of relief and the two kid snored without a care.

After he got a good distance away from the ballroom he called out for the system in his mind. [Hello, are you there.]

[My working hours are 9 to 5, please contact me later]

Wren felt cursed to have such a horrible system, even the most horrible system in stories are there for 24/7 service. He could only weep silently and long for a replacement. The reason which he wanted to contact the system was, he got the original owners memories. He wanted to know if this was the system doing.

[It was my doing]

[Ah your online, but these aren't your working hours] Wren knew he was tricked but he still wanted to give the system the benefit of the doubt.

[I didn't care, so I faked it]

Wren felt like a father arguing with his rebelling son. [Then why did you give me memories?] he questioned.

[Cause I for the first in my career, actually read my job description, and I have to actually give you memories.]

Before he could even blow up on the system, Wren heard light footsteps. He turned around and show the two tiny figures hiding behind a pillar, sneakily peaking at him. "I see you guys, no need to hide." he called out. Just when he said those words both figures rushed towards him. "Where did you, we lost our heater." complained Porta, while Kendric just tightly clasped the boy.

Wren gave in to the sticky children and comforted them saying he only went for a walk. "Last time you went for walk, you forgot all about us." Kendric stated talking about the pervious accident. "Sorry, let's go back." he apologised. It seems that his injury had casted horrible mental shadow on these kids. He only hoped it won't affect them for long.

The closed eyes of both children peeked open, the stared at their sleeping friend. Kendric poked his cheek to see if he was asleep, seeing no reaction from he sent a tumbs up to Porta. Seeing the signal, Porta carefully snuggled Wren before Kendric did the same. Both of the tightly grasped the children. They felt if they let him go, he might disappear. Wren who was captured by the bear children, had a smile on his face.

"Goodbye!" his companions shouted from their respected carriages as he waved them off. Wren tiredly smiled at the bear children. No matter his love for children, he couldn't be a little relived when they left. He was brought back the maids, who said the imperial physician came to check on him. A little stunned and surprised himself, Wren quickly rushed to get himself together.
