[It's good that you ca out of the Spatial Farm. It's getting quite late. If you don't go back to Jas' tent, I'm worried Fenwick and Garrett might beat up.] Lucian joked with a fake scared tone, causing Lily to giggle and roll her eyes.
[Shouldn't it be Lily whose worried uncle and brother are beaten up?] Lily joked back.
[Anyway, did you have fun playing with Osiris?] Lucian asked.
The ntion of Osiris made Lily's eyes brighten in excitent. She bead up at her Big Brother Lucian and said, [He's the best! He's also really smart! Lily had so much fun today!]
[If that's the case, you can continue playing with him whenever you want] Lucian replied warmly.
[Yay, thank you, Big Brother Lucian!] Lily said as she jumped up and down with excitent. [By the way, I hope Big Brother Lucian doesn't mind that I made a promise to Osiris on your behalf that you would visit him before going to sleep.]
Lucian nodded and after a while said, [I'll check up on him later tonight. Anyway, you should go back to Jas' tent. It's getting quite late now. You don't have to worry about helping close the restaurant.]
[Hmm. Okay. Lily will be back tomorrow. Bye, Big Brother Lucian. Good night!] Lily waved enthusiastically as she walked to the door.
[Mn. Good night.] Lucian waved back and watched her leave.

With how close Sir Jas' tent was, it did not take Lily that long to arrive before his house-like structure.
The guard stationed outside of the entrance rely glanced at the mysterious black-robed, black-masked individual, bowed, and moved aside to let her enter. To a superficial degree, he knew who she was because he had seen her exiting Chef Lucian's restaurant.
Lily thanked the guard in her rough older woman's voice and entered the tent.
'Hmm? Is everyone in their rooms?' Lily thought when she noticed the living room was empty. She initially wanted to spend ti with her uncle and brother, but since they were in their rooms, she decided to sleep early.
[Lily, I need to tell you sothing important. Enter my room.]
As soon as Lily was about to enter her room, her brother's voice sounded in her mind.
Hearing what her brother said, coupled with his worried and grave tone, caused Lily to worry. Without hesitation, she entered the room to the left of her room.
Inside, she found her brother seated cross-legged on his bed.
[Did sothing happen brother?] Lily asked worriedly.
[It's good that you're using Voice Transmission. By the way, I didn't notice it before, but why are you not calling big brother like you've always done?] Garrett furrowed his brows in displeasure. He already had an idea why, but he would rather not say it out loud. The thought of his adorable sister having fallen in love had created an uncomfortable feeling in him. He was happy for her.
Yet, at the sa ti, he was sad because he felt he would get to see her less.
Hearing his words, Lily's cheeks turned rosy. Thankfully, her black mask hid her facial expression.
[Ahem.] Lily coughed and imdiately changed the subject, [Brother, why did you ask Lily to enter your room? Did sothing happen?]
[Haah,] Garrett sighed upon hearing Lily's words. He would be a fool not to understand his little sister did not want to explain about her relationship with Lucian. However, he respected her decision, and after mulling over it with their uncle, they decided to trust Lucian.
[I called you into my room to warn you about Sir Jas' interest in Chef Lucian,] Garrett said solemnly after a mont.
But to his astonishnt, Lily responded with an, [Oh.]
[Are you not worried about him?] Garrett asked in shock. 'Could it be Hervy and the others were wrong? Does Lily not like Lucian?'
[Why should Lily be worried? It's only natural that Sir Jas is interested in my Big Brother Lucian.] Lily said pridefully with her hands on her hips and her chin slightly raised arrogantly.
Her Big Brother Lucian was the best chef, strong, mysterious, kind, and extrely… divinely handso.
At that mont, a vivid image flashed through her mind — his chiseled face, piercing dark purple vertical pupils, and the aura of indifference that naturally exuded from his body.
Even though Garrett could not see her expression behind the black mask, his lips could not help but twitch after witnessing her proud and arrogant stance.
Even more so… she called Lucian…. 'My Big Brother Lucian.'
'Has Lily always been possessive?' Garrett wondered, then sighed after a while, feeling many emotions. 'They were right… my little sister has fallen deeply in love.'
[Anyway, just be careful. Sir Jas is from the Orchard Family, and his interest in Chef Lucian isn't small.] Garrett worriedly reminded her, then explained what happened after Sir Jas had returned from Transcendence.
[Sir Jas wants to know about Big Brother Lucian's background and identity?] Lily said in a questioning tone after learning Sir Jas had asked her brother and the rest about her Big Brother Lucian. [Even Lily doesn't know much about Big Brother Lucian. He's very mysterious.]
After Lily spoke, her thoughts shifted to when they had entered Grandpa Maximillian's Dinsion. It was a shocking experience, and even now, she did not understand many of the topics that were spoken there.
But she was confident of one thing. Her Big Brother Lucian was not from Arcadia. It was a baseless guess, but she felt it should be accurate. With how amazing he was, it did not make sense for him to be unknown until now. It was as if he had popped out of nowhere. His knowledge was also more advanced than what Arcadians knew.
After learning that even his little sister knew barely any information about Lucian, Garrett was surprised. He had expected that if anyone knew about Lucian, it would be his little sister. But it seed that was far from the truth.
'Haah. How could Lily fall in love with soone she doesn't know?' Garrett sighed, but he trusted Lily. No… he trusted her ability that allowed her to sense an individual's character.
[If Brother doesn't have sothing else to say, Lily will go to sleep. Lily still has to help Big Brother Lucian tomorrow!] Lily said. Then before Garrett could respond, she left his room.
