I wake up to the sound of wings fluttering outside my window, pecking at it.

"Mmmnh... quiet, birds! I wanna sle..." I trail off.

Two white doves, holding a tied gift box with a ribbon on it, are fluttering outside my window.

I practically fall out of bed to open the window. The gift box is dropped off along with a note.

'Congratulations for surviving Year 1 at Babyls, my darling niece! Here's a little present to celebrate, from your favorite Uncle!

-Your Uncle Poro'

Unbelievable...

Only he would send a gift like this to the HUMAN WORLD.

I open the box to find a metal accessory to connect the front of a mantle, shaped like two musical notes.

Wasn't there an optional mantle in the school winter uniform...? Oh, shoot! School!

Realizing that my alarm clock didn't wake me up somehow, I quickly rummage through Infinite Void, find the mantle, and head to school, attaching it as I fly out from the forest.

When I get there, the first thing I notice is that everyone has something on that I've never seen before, and Soi has the exact same accessory as mine.

"We're twinning!" I grin. "I assume we got it from the same person?"

He nods. "Yeah. The presentation of it was kinda overkill though."

"Hah! Tell me about it! I guess that's my uncle for you." I gesture to the others. "Did they all get those from their masters?"

"Their masters, or from their family."

"Huh. All at the same time though, that can't be a coincidence."

"Still, just like Iruma said earlier, doesn't it make you happy?"

I look down, touching the accessory and smile.

"It does."
