"I actually wanted to meet you, and I was sure you would have denied if I asked you. So, I asked about Elena, that way I can see her too, for the last time"

"Why...do you want to meet me?"

"To tell you some things I remember from when I was staying at the palace with you, Elena, Selena, and Lier"

"What is it?"

"When I was staying at the palace with you, I have--wait what's the meaning if I tell you everything now!"

"Tch"

I almost got her.

"Fine. I have your contact information. I will contact you once I ask Elena"

"I don't mind. I have about a year left"

"What do you...mean"

I felt as if someone was climbing my leg, I looked down to see a white thing, a small white thing with two legs and hands, was trying to take out my sword.

The hell is that thing!

I quickly slapped it and it fell down, slamming into the wall next to us.

"Creepy!"

"It looks cute" 

That is cute?!

That freaking creepy thing is cute?!

"How is that thing cute?"

"Because it's small?"

What type of logic is that?!

"It is indeed small but no way in hell that's cute"

It is the same size as Lily. Lily is cute..no, Lily is the cutest thing in the world.

"I wonder if I can make it my pet"

She has really lost it.

"Where is your pixie?"

"Oh, they took her back"

"What?! How?!"

"I don't know. I logged in one day and there was a notification saying there will no longer be any AI in the game"

"....."

Is it the same person who sent me the notification?

What if they...no.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no.

There is no way that will happen.

There is no way I will let that happen.

Besides, I am already 1st.

I just have to maintain 1st rank for the next two days. I will keep playing and hunting and increase the points.

"Hey. Are you okay? You look horrible" she asked, moving her hand towards my face.

"Don't touch me!"

"Ah!"

"No! I am sorry. I am really sorry. I didn't mean to yell"

Why did I freak out when she tried to touch me?

"Are you okay?"

"Yeah, I am fine"

"No, I was asking your pixie"

"Huh?"

"She looks horrible. Is she okay?"

I raised my hand, and Lily sat on it.

Lily looks scared.

[Das...I]

Wait! Oh shit!

"Don't worry, Lily. You will not disappear. They will not take you back. Don't worry, okay? I won't let anything happen to you"

[I am causing trouble for you. I only annoy you and make you angry and pull your hair and always yell--]

"Lily"

[I am not good for you. I am happy that you love me, but in the end, I am just an AI. We can't be together even if we want to. It would be good if I just disappeared. I should just disappear--]

"Lily! Don't ever dare to say that again!"

[But I--]

"Didn't you ask me to kiss you once this event ended? So wait for the event to end, and we will kiss all you want, okay?"

[.....]

She didn't say anything. She just hugged my finger.

I don't care what happens. I don't care what I have to do, I don't care what I will do, but I will do anything to be with Lily. Even if it means killing thousands1. I will do it.

"I am sorry, I shouldn't have said anything in front of her" Grace said, looking down.

"It's okay. I was the one who asked"

"Why are you being so kind to me?"

"What?!"

When did I act kind?

"You even forgave me"

"Forgave you? For what?"

"For what I did to you"

"Wait, what did you do to me?!"

"The duel in the garden and in the palace of world Zero"

"Oh, I haven't forgiven you for that"

"You haven't?!"

"Did I say that I forgave you for that?"

"But you said you don't hate me"

"Hate and forgiving are different things"

"Are they?"

"Yes. Let me explain"

"Please do"

"Hate is hate and forgiving is forgiving"

"What type of explanation is this?"

I don't know.

How am I supposed to explain that?!

"In simple words, not hating someone is different than forgiving them"

"But you have to forgive them first in order to not to hate them"

"Yes, but how will a person forgive them if he never hated them?"

"Huh?"

I am confused now!

"I am saying that I never hated you. As I said, I saw you as a girl and Elena's mentor. You were never a threat to me"

Like I am going to let someone steal Elena from me.

You have no idea how low I can fall if I hint my selfishness.

"So you never hated me?"

"I didn't"

"So what are you not forgiving me about?"

I don't hate her, so why am I angry....

"Angry! I am angry!"

"For what?"

"Are you seriously asking that?"

"I got it, I tried to make a move on Elena, so you are angry about that, right?"

"Want me to punch you?"

"What will I have to do for you to forgive me?"

"How about you get out of my face"

"I will do it. Is there anything else you want me to do?"

Why is she being so docile today?

Could it be that being rejected by Elena broke her ego and confidence?

"How old are you?" 

"Don't you know asking a girl her age is a crime"

"Nevermind, I am going, see you"

"Wait! I was kidding! I am a year older than Elena"

"20?"

"I turned 21 last month"

Almost 3 years older than me.

I can't get much information from her.

"Your dad is my grandfather's friend, right?"

"Yes"

But asking him anything would be a kind of...

"Do you have any siblings?"

"I don't"

Sigh~~

This doesn't make sense. My grandfather is above 70. Her father must be the same age as him and she is 21...

"Could it be that you are adopted?"

She nodded and said, "I don't remember much, but my father adopted me from your mother's NGO when I was 3 years old" by thousands he mean the thousands player of the game.
