Rhys's POV

Ugh... my head...

It's just pain...

I opened my eyes , found myself remained in my chamber , as I sighed. I stood up carefully as I found my current temperature was not like before.

I looked to my left and found a half glass of water with my glaoses on the bedside table. Found the blanket was covering the lower part of my body , I do realise that someone was taking care of me.

But who?

I was positively think it would be Ava sinec she been through it and she might learnt how. Not to mention , she's powerful sorceress after all.

I walked down from my bed , putting on my robe and my glaoses. As I opened the door , I was quite shocked with whoever was standing by the door.

"Oscar?"
They looked at me with their fierce eyes as they pushed me into the chamber , closing the door by the moment.

"What are you even doing?"
"W-What?"
"You did got better , and it does not mean that you can do whatever you want , dummy! You better stay in bed now before I gave another lecture." They growled as I sat back on my bed , only receiving a scoff by them , wille walking to the table , placing some small orange coloured and circular shaped objects.

"You.... Have you been taking care of me , this whole time?"
I see them froze in position as they responded , "Who else can it be? Ava went out with your other demons friends to help Mrs. Oats. It's only you and me here. But not like I care."

They passed me the objects as they urged me to shallow them before passing me the glass of water to get rid the bad taste.

"Get some sleep now , you would possibly be better when you woke up for next time." They muttered as I smiled before seeing their good side once more.

I grabbed their hand as I caressed their knuckles , thanking them. Which only received a flustered and stuttered Oscar as they rushed out of the room. I giggled as I slept back on the bed.

Leif's POV

"Argh , why are we even doing that just now...?" I grunted as I stretched my body and entered the base.

"Isn't it great? You just received some free exercises and be grateful for me not killing after you legit tossed a box with artifacts!" Ava growled which I chuckled nervously before phased into the castle.

Now , Rhys wasn't here , I could use my phasing skills whenever I wanted. That's quite one of the benefits for me. But , without Rhys , things did go downhill. Like Asch won't stop control his anger on humans who kept staring at him.

'Ugh , just let me take a break for whatever it takes-' Right when my mind was wondering around the centre of rest , I bumped into someone.

"Watch where you're-!"
I looked up and found the human. In our castle.

They're dressed in a white undershirt with a black one outside , with black tights to their knees. Their hair was tied in a low pigtail.

Their fierce glares were straight passed through her glaoses when they found me non-stop staring at them.
"What? Something on my face , demon?"

"Just what are you doing here?"
They flinched as they seemingly hid something behind their back.
"N-Nothing , just wondering around. Have an issue with that? When your Princess Ava could legit wonder around? Shut up and make way now."

They passed by me as I noticed a small light shined to my face. I turned my head and found a glass cup in their hand.

Why in the world they have that?

I phased to Rhys's chamber , which found he was seated on his chair with his paperwork in his grasp.

"Oh ,Leif. I see you have returned from helping the wise sage Mrs. Oats with Ava and the others. How was it?"

His face was much more better than before as he was cure and healed from illness. From.... human Oscar?

I pulled him by the chair , making him yelped and panicked for that quick second as I dragged him to the front of the bed , where I was sat on.

"What is it for now , Leif?"
"I want to know... Did human Oscar just came into your chamber? To heal and cure you?"

Rhys looked away from me ,until he let in a small nod with his skull. Even greater , he have a light red tint of blush on his face.

"But why though?..."
"What makes you said so?"
"Ava mentioned that human Oscar wasn't pleased with the thought of taking care of you. But turns out..."

Rhys leaned back to his chair as a stupid lovesick smug crawled upon his face.
"Ew , get that face away from me."
He chuckled as I was absolutely disgusted by the love he showed with his face.

Suddenly , Ava kicked the door opened with her feet.
"I heard that Oscar have posioned- Wait a minute..," Ava's facial expression from panicking to calm thinking as she snapped her fingers , "Ah darn stupid me , I was tricked by her. No interruptions?"

"What do you mean 'Tricked' , Princess Ava?"
"Nah , just... She used the word 'poisoned' , instead the proper word , or we call 'taking care'. She's such a Tsundere."

Ava's POV

"Tsundere? What's that suppose to be?"
Rhys questioned as I begun scratching my brain cells , thinking with a way to explain it to the demon.

"Well... Tsundere was a person who denies affection or feelings towards another. They were quite the slow heated persons. Oscar and Asch were the best of examples , eventually. But Oscar was more like the type of Tsundere that denies everything."

"Oh , that explains it. Perhaps you does have feelings towards some 'Soon-dere' like her , or perhaps both of you have the same thought towards each other?~"

I gotten a bit frustrated from the fact that they pronouns 'Tsundere' wrongly yet confused when Leif said that....

Rhys was legitimately blushing when Leif said so....

Does that mean....

No way.
