Ding!

Airy went to open the door and as soon as she saw the person, she immediately dragged the person inside.

Author, "O-ouch! Slow down, Airy!"

With a sharp tone, Airy glared at the Author. "You realized that you had been out for over a month, right? So, how was your trip? Enjoyable? Obviously not so for me, you know."

"Ah, yes. I didn't forget about you, Airy. Here you go, your favorite things, isn't it?"

Airy looks down to a box full of skittles with sparkled eyes. "You're forgiven for now... Now go do your work!"

Author turned her head, looking straight at front. Thud!

*In Dogeza position*

I'm sorry for leaving without notice! There were kinds of problems I had to take care of... Well, now that I'm back, gonna start writing then! So, here's Chapter 7! Enjoy~

Light shone through the little opening of the window, forming a passageway for the sunlight to creep in, and in turn, illuminating the entire room. Birds were flying freely, starting the day with lively chirping sounds. Rays of sunshine penetrate through the curtain, finding its way to stare straight into Emil's eyes. Groaning, Emil sat up and rubbed his pitiful eyes, annoyed at the way nature decided to wake him up.

Sitting up, Emil stretched his body, releasing some of that tension. His nose suddenly shuddered, picking up a rather unpleasant odour. Come to think of it, he did feel kind of sticky.

 Ah.

Grabbing the hem of his shirt, Emil pulled it towards his nose, frowning as he took a sniff. Turns out, he was the foul-smelling thing. Just then, there was a knock on the door. Emil released his grip and went to open the door. 

Antonio stood there, grinning widely at him, but contrary to that bright smile, there was a black spot under his eyes. Concerned, Emil asked the man in front. The man in question smiled at him, stating that it was just the cold night keeping him awake. 

Feeling like Antonio was avoiding the question and had no intention to speak, Emil didn't ask any further. Throwing away his curiosity, Emil restated his attention. Now that he looked, the emerald-haired man had already changed his clothes, blue replacing the white shirt last night. 

Seeing that Emil was still in the same clothes as he had yesterday, Antonio chuckled. "Ahh... I see you haven't ready yet. Don't worry, I can wait for you, and we can grab breakfast together! And... I've already told Kai to book a table beforehand." 

The slight pause escaped Emil's sense, too engrossed in the thoughts of that smell. "Mn. But I haven't changed yet and smell terrible now. Do you know where the bathroom is?"

"Bathroom? Oh, you're wasting time! Just use the cleansing spell, it'll be a lot faster that way!" Seeing the man smiling sheepishly, Antonio threw Emil a questioning look, which the other nodded. "Ah... I thought you could use it because of your noble demeanour yesterday... I'm so sorry to make early assumptions!" Antonio said apologetically, cupping his hands together with his back bent slightly.

"It's okay, Antonio," Emil assured with a smile. Yes, he can't use it. But that was the situation for now. After solving all the requirements, he would use it like crazy for the comfort of his life. He giggled in his mind.

'I can't wait for that to happen hehe...'

Antonio huffed a breath. "Well, since it only took a little bit of Aurum, I can help you with that."
