"Woaaah..."
Denji couldn't help but gasp and had wide eyes full of wonder, as he looked up at a fancy luxurious hotel, which was definitely not affordable to a normal person like him. This undoubtedly impressed him greatly.
"It's like I'm looking at a castle..."
Though as Denji was admiring the building, Kobeni Higashiyama couldn't help but look at him with a tilted confused expression.
"Um, I don't own the building?"
When Kobeni clarified this to the blonde, he couldn't help but pout and look a bit disappointed.
"Oh."
Luckily, Denji's disappointment didn't last long. Higashiyama led him not only into the building but also up to the penthouse of this luxurious hotel. As soon as he walked through the door and entered his new home, he wasn't met with something terrible like he was used to. Instead, he saw a real and true home, with everything he could ever wish for, from something as simple as electricity to someone as grand as the large living room with a TV. It was like he was living in a magical world.
"This is where I live, I-I hope it's up to your standards."
Kobeni, despite living in such a wonderful home, was still worried that her new guest wouldn't like it.
"Trust me, I have no standards~"
Fortunately for her though, Denji was able to dash away those doubts by giving his approval towards his new home, though the way he said it could use some work, as it only made her more confused than nervous.
"O...K?..."
Kobeni decided that it was best to move on, so she shook her head and cleared her thoughts as she showed the Devil Hybrid around her home.
"Let me show you to your room."
However before Kobeni could, she was stopped and interrupted by the Chainsaw Man loud gasp.
"I-I get my own room?!"
Denji couldn't help but be shocked, as if the idea of him getting his own room was impossible until now. He even assumed he would be sleeping on the couch instead of getting a room.
"Yes, why do you ask?"
When Kobeni turned back around to look at the blonde with a confused expression, she was immediately with a tearful face as he was struggling not to cry.
"O-Oh! I'm s-sorry, I didn't mean to make you cry, i-if you don't want a room, I can-"
Just as Kobeni was about to panic and think of a way to apologize and ask for forgiveness, she was stopped when the Devil Hybrid spoke up.
"N-No, it's not that..."
Denji was able to calm down as he wiped away his tears from his face and eyes.
"Just the thought of getting my own room, a real one, it just makes me so happy."
And to prove what Denji said, he looks at her and lets out a bright yet very grateful happy smile, much to her surprise.
'And I thought I had it rough...'
Kobeni couldn't process the idea of anyone being this happy about getting their own room, for him to treasure something as simple as that, not even her own life was that bad to make her think like him.
"I don't know the kind of life that you had before."
Kobeni, whatever distrust or negative feeling that she might've had for the Chainsaw Man, was replaced with guilt and sympathy.
