Eruhaben's ears perked as he heard little giggles coming from the garden, he stealthily looked at the giggling children who were stealing ripe strawberries. He squinted his eyes when he saw Raon stuff 6 strawberries in his mouth, Hong even biting on the strawberry stem itself, and On was the lookout, biting a bright red strawberry.

Cale's gonna be so mad.

Eruhaben thought of Cale's fuming face when he was scolding the children after eating too much chocolate last month, he even stopped buying chocolate products. He was about to jump on them when he saw the redhead fast approaching the same spot where Raon and the cat siblings were.

"Raon! On! Hong!"

The redhead's face was flustered and crumpled as if displeased. They were caught in 4k, Raon was chewing a ripe strawberry, Hong was licking his paw and On was trying to bite another piece again.

"H-human!"

"C-cale nya, this isn't what you think it is!"

"T-that's right nya! W-we were just checking for pests nya!"

On and Hong reasoned out to the redhead, Cale's brows raised. Raon jerked his head and immediately wiped his mouth and nodded.

"T-that's right! Luckily there were no pests!"

Cale crossed his arms and stared at them.

"Really?"

The three children nodded vigorously while trying to hide the berries they had picked behind them. Raon was opening his magic bag and attempted to put the strawberries.

"Raon."

Raon froze in his spot as soon as he heard Cale's voice.

"How many strawberries did you eat?"

On bit, her lip and answered on behalf of her brothers.

"Just a little nya.."

"Just a little?"

Cale roamed his eyes on the strawberry farm, two rows of strawberry bushes were emptied out, the ripe ones were eaten. The redhead massaged his forehead and scratched his nape.

"Choi Han."

The swordmaster popped beside Cale, with his head down. Fidgeting on his fingers.

"Take the kids to their rooms, and tell Ron that they are not allowed to eat the chocolate cake I have prepared for their afternoon snack."

"H-human!"

"Cale-nya!"

"Nya, were sorry!"

Eruhaben just stayed quiet as he watched Choi Han drag the children away, saying sorry, asking Cale to let them eat the cake, the redhead just shook his head and scratched his brow. Eruhaben stood up from crouching and revealed himself to Cale. The redhead was startled.

"Eruhaben-nim! You startled me."

"Hey, you looked stressed."

Cale just nodded and looked at the strawberries he planted.

"Well, they ate a lot."

Cale and Eruhaben looked at the strawberry bushes and looked at each other, they sighed in unison.

"Seems like Choi Han has done something unimaginable again."

Eruhaben commented as he walked beside Cale. The redhead sighed heavily.
