Aether pov:

It was after school. Me and Venti were seated at the bench and Venti was talking to me. When I remember what happened yesterday.

Flashback:

I was wandering around the school because Xiao, Venti, and Kazuha were in class. I suddenly saw Enjou was standing at the school gate and I ran toward him.

"Enjou it's been a month since I saw you!"

"Ohh kid what are you doing here?"

"I should be the one who asking you that." I smirk.

-

We walked in the hallway.

"Btw Enjou why did you leave me at Christmas? I wanted to introduce you to my friends."

"I have a work to do and about that-"

Enjou cut his words when a little girl ran toward us.

"Aether onii-san!"

"Oh Qiqi! Long time no see, I miss you!" I smiled.

"Look at Hu tao's gift for me!" She show her bracelet

"Wow, that was cute!"

Qiqi smiled and she suddenly looked at Enjou.

"Oh Hello sir I didn't see you there, are you Aether onii-san friend?"

We were shocked.

"Qiqi, can you see him?!"

Qiqi nooded.

"You kinda look familiar. I saw one too every night when I went to sleep but that person was fully masked. It was not clear because he always show in the dark… It makes me scared but you sir, you look kind, and I like your costume!" She smiled. "Um… I need to go. I just went to the restroom and my teacher might be wondering about me. Bye bye." She left.

Enjou was quiet for a moment. We were sitting at the bench.

"Enjou looks like you're deep in thought. What are you thinking about?"😟

"Kid, you said earlier that you wanted me to introduce you to your friends right."😐

"Yes, why?"🤔

"About that, normal people can't see an Abyss reaper unless you have an ability to see the supernaturals or people who are close to dying." He said with a cold tone.

I was shocked. "What do you mean?!" 😨

"Simple, that child is about to die."

"No, that's impossible! She can't die at a young age, she still has many dreams."😰

"What is that kid's name?"

"Qiqi."

Enjou summons some papers of Qiqi. He examined it.

"Hmmm just as I expected she will die in a year."

I examine the paper. 😰😢

"What? That's too early!"

"No way Enjou, maybe there's another way to avoid that happening right?!"

"No."

"You have power, right? You can help her!" 😥

"Aether I'm not a God I'm just an Abyss reaper! I can't do that."

"How about my earring?! What if I gave it to her? Her time here will extend right?!"

Enjou got annoyed, "Are you forgetting things? You almost lost your existence when the other Abyss reaper knew that I helped you and if I gave that to Qiqi it will not be working because that earring has little energy! Also, are you willing to give that to her in exchange you will go to the other side right now!"😠
