Once again, he's hungry.

Everyday is the same, not like he know what day is today.

Today, Alphonse let him out of the dungeon. Merciless roamed around the garden, it was the garden that his father gifted to his mother.

If Mercilessly can read, he want to go to the library. Yet, he never step there as his father forbid him to go there.

Apparently, no one goes there. Some servants said it belonged to a boy named Angst. Merciless has no idea who that is.

Merciless stares at the butterfly, he's hungry... ... Perhaps eating the butterfly will taste better than rats in the dungeon.

'... No, mommy is still in the garden... Must not eat or she'll be scared of me..-' Merciless control his urge. 'Stay away... Don't eat...-'

"Baby?" Killer tapped Merciless shoulder. "Are you alright?"

"Ah... Yes mommy, I was admiring this butterfly...-" Merciless forced his smile, "what's that on your hand, mommy?"

"Oh, flower wreath." She smiles faintly and place it on Merciless head. "For my little prince."

"Ah!" Merciless eyes sparks as Killer put the flower wreath on his head, tulips and daffodils. "Thank you, Mommy!" He giggle happily at the gift. "wait mommy, I wanna make it for you too!"

"Sure thing baby." She chuckles as she pat Merciless head. "I'll wait here for you."

Merciless nodded, he went to find beautiful flowers for his mother. He wonders if there sunflower in this garden yet again in such cold weather and sun that never hits this kingdom, sunflower is impossible to find.

The magic that his father provide for this garden is truly wonderful but it's not enough for a sunflower to bloom.

His mother loves sunflower, she told him that sunflower reminds her of the past. 

Merciless really want Killer to be happy. Punishment is fine, he can endure it. His mother happiness is his priorities.

He remembered the time that the guards purposely let him out from the castle. He remembers the path.
