The next day, Leonia dresses in a warm blue dress and a long fur cape that Phileo had gotten somewhere.

Her black hair was tied with a red ribbon by Meles.

"It suits you."

Meles smiled. But she was feeling terrible inside.

It was sad to think that a child like this had not only gone through a terrible experience at the orphanage, but had never worn normal clothing like this before.

She feels worse because she had a younger brother about the same age.

Phileo does not say anything for a long time.

"You're finally looking like a person."

A mocking voice comes out as he finally speaks.

"I was always a person!"

Leonia says, asking for a compliment.

"I can't compliment you when you're not pretty."

"Aren't you being mean, old man? You're my dad now."

"And yet you're calling me old man?"

"It's because I'm not used to calling someone my dad!"

"I'm not used to complimenting someone either."

Paul laughs as he refuses to lose to a small child.

Leonia's cheeks puffed in anger. But it made people feel even more sorry for her because of how thin she was.

Paul frowns. His good mood drops in an instant.

Feather like footsteps are heard in the silent moment as one of the knights finish dressing Adlyn in his black cloak.
