So the next day , Visco did bring her back with his side.

Nana : .... You're good. What's the deal ?

Visco ; I told her to drink a medicine that would make her infertile. She couldn't ever get pregnant.

Nana : a medicine? There's no such thing that is that powerful for a Billial Family to not be able to cure. You gave her a cursed medicine. Didn't you ?

Visco ; needed them to dump her away. So ... All I did was give them a fact I made up.

Nana sighs " and you're ok with it ?" She looks to artietra.

Garlis : Miss is talking to you.

Artietra: yes. Mr Visco said you could break the curse anytime you wanted as long as I dealed with you.

Nana : you... *Smiled deviously* you're quite good.

Artietra: you... Can right ?

Nana ; sure. It's not the Billial Family can't break it. Just not worth the price for you.

Artietra: I see...

Visco: thank you. I'll bill you then.

Nana ; sure.

Visco then leaves.

Nana ; well. She's back. Send her home.

Artietra knelt to the floor " I don't want to go home ! "

Nana ; huh ?!! I'm not a charity.

Artietra: please... I'll do anything.  They sold me... I don't want to go back there.

Garlis: your mother was forced to.

Artietra: that's what she said ?!! The Billial Family was looking for anyone close enough to good to marry to their most insignificant son. They sold me !! Like I was a thing. Said I was good for breeding and things.

Garlis ; ... What ? Why ?

Artietra; they needed money... Father had gambled everything away

Garlis ; but your mother come begged me. She had a change of mind.

Artietra; no. The Billial Family paid her more money to say that. They knew you worked for Miss Nana. They wanted to ...

Shadow Demon: to what ?

Artietra: to capture you for their own.

Nana ; hmph. Like I can be captured.

Artietra: so... Can I please ... Stay here ?

Nana ; garlis. She still studying?

Garlis: yes.

Nana ; .... I don't like doing free things though.

Garlis ; I'll pass one day. She can take over me then.

Nana: think I'm stupid? Garlis. I'll have to extend her life till then.

Shadow Demon: Garlis can pay for her own schooling.

Garlis ; she can stay in this building. One of the apartment requires a roommate. I'll pay for the rent.

Nana sighs " can't help with you two. Ganging on your own miss." She walks away to her room.

Garlis; we love you miss !

Garlis brought a hot cup of tea into her room with apple pie.

Nana: smells so good.

Garlis ; it's to thank you.

Nana ; so little ?

Garlis ; you know I've limited things I can do.

Nana takes a bite into the apple pie " you underestimate yourself.". She slowly sips the tea " soooo goood. "

Garlis : Miss Ilise has returned with information.

Nana : yup ?

Garlis : he's the son of a scientist. Full name Visco Eldridge. He worked as a scientist with his father before

Nana: scientist. Isn't that like an alchemist?

Garlis ; scientist research and understand how things work. Alchemist research to make things work.

Nana shrugged " same to me."

Garlis ; then he met Neva. Neva has been sponsoring their projects a while until his father passed. His first few fixes were all to do potions. That's when he really went into it. Fixing things for people.

Nana : no harm ?

Garlis ; not yet.

Nana : you believe coincidences ?

Garlis ; not sure. But he seems very different from our Neva. Looks like him. But...

Nana : feels... Different...
