// 6 September S.1202, Nortia Province, North of Heimdallr //

It is now 2 hours since I left Roer, during the trip I meet many people who seem to be intrigued by my bike and its speed according to my estimates if nothing happens I should have reached the Capital before sunset.

I also take advantage of the trip to do some tests on the bike to see how it reacts to certain situations like slips, or accelerations, of course, I am in my form [Demon Drive] to avoid that my identity is discovered by the Imperial Intelligence Agency because in this form my appearance is different from my human form my hair is a little longer, my face becomes a little more adult.

(without the horn)

I have worked for years to get to build this bike, a lot of trial and error and you doubt that this bike is not a normal bike it has been built and reinforced to be useful in combat, for example, the wheels are made of such if I make a rear-wheel I can turn the front wheel into a circular saw

I continue my way when all of a sudden thanks to my overdeveloped hearing I hear the scream of a monster and fight not far from where I am, letting my curiosity take over I pass my bike in off-road mode then go off the road to sink into the forest towards the place of the fight Once there, I see someone fighting against a Venus Mantrap, a three-headed plant monster that can throw toxic impurities at its enemies.

Arrived a few meters from the place of the fight I notice that the person who fights against the Mantrap is only a little girl of barely 13 years old, with silver hair and yellow eyes, she fights with two pistol blades and moves quickly like the wind and she has on her right shoulder the emblem of the group of jaegers, Zephyr.

And yes, the person fighting is none other than Fie Claussell, aka Sylphid.It means that Zephyr is in Erebonia, should I warn them or let the story continue on its own?' I think in my head

Whether I prevent the fight or not the fight between Zephyr and Red Constellation will not change anything the gnomes will find a way to make them fight again, and the honor of the two group leaders will not allow them to cancel this fight either.

*bang**bang**bang**bang*

Thanks to her small size and agility she manages to avoid all the vines that the Mantrap throws at her, after avoiding two vines, she cuts them with a single blow of the blade and then ends up with a shower of bullets.

As for me, I do nothing but sit and observe it, I'm not going to intervene in this fight, I'm just staying here and observing its movements, it's breathing, its reaction time, its techniques After having deprived the monster of all his vines she finishes him off with her S-craft Sylphide Dance, after the fight I get up from where I am and get ready to go

"Fie is really strong, I learned a lot from this fight," I say to myself with a smile

When all of a sudden my stomach starts to gurgle

"Ahah, indeed, I haven't eaten anything since I left home and it's already past noon, I'm going to camp here for the rest of the day and leave the next morning"

I go deeper into the forest to look for a space to prepare a camp and lunch, without realizing that Fie is looking in the direction where I was, and heading in the direction where I left.

// TimeSkip //

After finding a good location I take out of my inventory a tent that I set up and then a table, then I take out all the utensils and ingredients I would need. Then I look around and approach a dead tree in front of me, draw my katana and cut it into equal pieces and start preparing the fireplace for the fire.

Then I went to fetch water from a stream not far away on my way back I feel someone is watching me but she has no malice towards me so I don't care.

After everything is ready I start the fire then I start cutting the vegetables, then the meat, and clean the rice. 

After the rice is cleaned I put it to cook separately, in a saucepan I fry the vegetables in oil, next to it in a wok I cook the meat over high heat adding spices, after some time I add the vegetables in the meat and then let it simmer. The smell of the dish begins to invade the camp

While waiting for lunch to be ready I decide to meditate and test a new technique that I have learned, it allows me to locate over a greater distance because the detection I developed during my training is limited only to my close surroundings, I must release some impetus of demonic energy around me and when it hits an object it comes back to me which gives me an image of the object or the person.

Of course, this technique is not yet fully developed and is not 100% reliable but it fulfills its purpose perfectly, and now I know who our little observer is, it is Fie who is watching me from a nearby branch, but I wonder what she is doing here.

The only way to find out for sure and ask the person may sound silly, but I'm a simple person.

"You can come out of your hiding place I know you're there"

I wait a moment before someone comes down from a nearby tree

"To find me, you're doing well."

"You're the girl from earlier, it's nothing but the result of my training, what can I do for you? "

"I wanted to know why you were watching me, fighting"

' Oh, even in the middle of a fight she managed to detect my presence '

"Nothing, in particular, I heard fighting noises and my curiosity forced me to investigate when I arrived I saw you fight and as you seem to handle the situation on your own I just observed"

"Is that all? " she says, releasing a bloody aura

' Wow, she could release such a murderous aura, I expected nothing less from the daughter of the King of Jaegers, even for someone her age. '

Thinking that way, she noticed that I was not flinching at all at her threat and I replied

"I have nothing to blame myself for, I'm just a transient and I had no bad attention if I caused you discomfort, I apologize"

Seeing that I am sincere she makes the aura disappear

"No, I should apologize even when you discovered me, you didn't do anything against me and I didn't feel any malice coming from you"

"We're even then, is that all we wanted to know? "

"No, I wanted to ask you something else, when I saw you, I had a strange feeling in my chest, I don't know why, but that feeling told me to follow you"

' It's weird, I know Fie relies a lot on her instincts, but I don't see why she would tell her to follow me, it's not like we're from the same family or even acquaintances. '

"I see, what kind of feeling do you have if you can describe it, uh... I forgot to ask you your name"

"Fie, Fie Claussell"

"Nice to meet you, Fie, my name is Yuno Schwartzer."

"Likewise, Yuno," she says with a smile

"Dazzling is it the Fie as described in the game, it's really weird that she trusts a simple stranger so easily, would seem that my presence in this world will have more impact than I thinkIt was only a few years later that I discovered that thanks to my training with my demonic energy not only did I remove all the impurities from my body, my face and body are at their maximum so for my age I am super cute and gives the impression of being very dependent on me and as I have not yet finished my puberty my handsome side is not very apparent, I also gained a passive ability that seems to influence the impression that people have towards me, of course, it doesn't work on everyone only people who don't have a great mental strength, like children or people with weak minds. but when it acts on someone, for example, a girl she is more friendly, easy to talk, convince and also easier to seduce and it is not sure to work every time, the time I realize this ability I would have created a situation that seems to be a mixture of heaven and hell...

"As I was saying, can you describe to me how you feel? "

"I don't know how to describe it when I'm around you I'm warm inside I feel safe and when you left earlier it's like I have a void"

"I see"

Oye, these are the symptoms of the first love at first sight, what do I do in this situation, if I tell her the truth and she tells the other members of Zephyr I will be chased away in all Zumeria by them especially the captain and his two right arms will never give up and on the other hand if I lie to her and she later discovers it she will be angry with me'.

I turn around and look Fie in the eyes, I feel that she is disturbed by this new feeling, so I'm going to play the safety card and see how things go in the future, maybe it's only temporary

"To be honest with you, the symptoms you describe to me are those of first love at first sight'"

"First love at first sight"? What does that mean? "

"It's when you feel this strong feeling of attachment and love towards someone other than your family, of course, you're still young so you don't understand that feeling perfectly, it can be something else"

"I see thank you for explaining to me"

"You're welcome, tell me, have you ever felt that way about anyone other than me or your family?

"No, it's the first time, what about you? "

"I, not yet, but I hope for the future"

"I don't like it," she says in a low voice

"Did you say something?" I ask with a frown

"I didn't say anything"

' I'm going to pretend she didn't say anything. '

"I see, do you have time? "

"Yes, why?"

"I just made me some food, want you to come with me, there's enough for both of us, so we can talk."

"May I? "

"Of course, be my guest"

Then I turn off my [Demon Drive] which surprises Fie to see my true appearance and I start checking the cooking of the food, then I serve a portion for Fie and I, after taking a bite I notice that she seems to like the meal a lot

"Looks like the cookbook that God allowed me to make someone happy with my cooking.

During the meal we talked about ourselves and our lives, she talked to me about the days when she wandered alone and then met Zephyr's captain and adopted her and became a member of the jaeger group, when I told her about my life until today while hiding important information for the future it was at that time that we became friends

After eating I prepare to go hunting monsters in the forest because the only monsters I have faced in the last 7 years are only those around Ymir and Roer, Fie to decide to accompany me

That afternoon I decided to train my shooting in I took out two orbal Guns of my creation that I named Ebonie and Yvrory in homage to Dante's two pistols, these two beauties are modified to support my demonic energy and offers me a wide range of techniques

During this hunt Fie and I had to work in a team I had to adjust my pace to be in perfect sync with her at first had a lot of trouble but as we went along and a lot of trial and error, we perfect our teamwork.

When I came back to camp I had a smile on my face because I was able to learn a lot of "movement techniques" thanks to Fie and Fie also seems happy that I taught her new techniques with guns, after dinner, we each went to bed in his sleeping bag.

// The next day //

The next day I wake up to the birds singing, but when I try to get up I feel a weight on my chest and I open my sleeping bag to find Fie huddled against me

"Fie, how did you end up here? "I ask myself

I try to sneak out of the bag without waking her up, when I can get away I hear Fie moaning in her sleep

"Please don't leave me alone, Captain, everyone, Big Brother Yuno"

I scratch the back of my head listening to her, then I decide to use a trick I use when Elise had nightmares when we were kids, I put my hand on Fie's head and whisper in her ear

"Don't worry your older brother will always be there to protect you" then she calms down and goes back to sleep I put my jacket next to her then leave the tent to do my morning training and prepare breakfast.

After breakfast I put away all my equipment and prepare to leave then I turn back to Fie who seems to have a reluctance to part with me I approach her and pat her head

"Don't make that face, Fie, it's not like if we're never going to see each other again."

"Say you don't want to come with me and join Zephir I'm sure the captain will be happy to meet you"

"Sorry Fie but I already have a mission that my, master has entrusted to me so I can't come with you, but I can promise you that I'll see you in the future"

"Promised? "

"I promise, Pinky swear."

" Pinky swear "

After our promise, I go to the road leaving Fie behind me

Then all of a sudden the sound of a radio can be heard

{ Sylphid reporting, Finish }

{ Here, Sylphid, I'm listening, Captain }

{ I was worried you didn't report yesterday }

{ Sorry }

{ It's nothing as long as you're safe, tell me why it took you so long to report? }{ I found myself a big brother }

{ ... What !!! }

{ I'm going back to base, Finish }

{ Wait, Fie what do you mean ?}

When I got on the road I activated my [Demon Drive] when all of a sudden I think I forgot something really important.

Then all of a sudden I start to sweat cold, and then I remembered that I forgot to tell Fie not to mention my name to anyone.

"I'm in trouble this time"

Then I get on my bike and summarize my journey to Capital
