As if in a scene from a play, the gazes of the person sitting on the tree and the person falling slowly cross each other. Eventually, Raven reached the bottom, and without even thinking about it, he quickly regained his balance and started running straight ahead.

Instinct is warning: if you can't get him off here, it'll be almost impossible to get him off afterward.

Uddangtangtang!!

- Oh my, why are you in such a hurry all of a sudden...

Kwaang!

The sound of someone rushing out of the room is followed by the sound of someone pounding down the stairs. Raven threw the room key on the counter through the open first-floor window and then increased his running speed.

Because he threw it so hastily, the key seems to have been pushed to the corner of the counter...

'You'll notice someday.'

Anyway, it's on the counter.

The sound of footsteps and grinding teeth coming from behind is truly eerie. Even when he was dealing with monsters, it felt like quiet goosebumps were running down his spine, so Raven let out a laugh and focused on running.

'If I get caught for this, I'll be screwed.'

*****

The youngest disciple thought.

Father... found you, Master, but if he approaches carelessly, he will only be alert. If he approaches him as someone he knows, he will be attacked or chased away, and even if he approaches him as a stranger, only boundaries and an iron wall will come back.

The teacher he knows is like a rabbit and is wary of the topic of loneliness. It must have gotten even worse because it burned him badly.

So instead of hastily approaching, he quietly rolled his head.

'I need to meet him in a situation where he can't reject me.'

Her goal is to take him to the imperial capital, to be precise, the imperial palace.

There may be a way to force him and drag him away, but father is a man who has no choice but to wander the world. It's not our preference to tie him up in one place.

Since he's guilty, he will show him the huge, comfortable cage with the door open so you can come in and out at any time... no, he will show him the nest and apologize.

I'm sorry for getting caught.

He should have lied to him the whole time, but he foolishly got caught and hurt him.

And he needs to engrave in his mind that this is the place he will return to. If he fills it with all kinds of fancy things, he will remember it even if he doesn't want to.

Remembering means that the likelihood of remembering this place increases someday, at some moment.

'I need a way to take him to the capital without compromising the border as much as possible...'

Taking Raven with him is the priority.

Of course, he knows that Master will stop by the imperial capital someday. Since he discovered him this way, all he has to do is just watch. However, he really didn't like the fact that he couldn't even say a word to him when he found him like this, and he couldn't guarantee that another bastard wouldn't find him and do something in the meantime.

The youngest disciple, Deceiver, who could not let go of his true nature, thought as he tore up the paper in his hand, ignoring the most trivial and uninteresting option.
