Chapter 145

After thinking for a moment, Akaso Kaze finally remembered.

After saving Ayumi, he was rewarded with a high-end apartment.

It turned out to be this very building.

There wasn't just this one unit inside, but over a dozen, worth at least over a billion.

He had struck it rich now.

"Let me tell you a secret: this whole building has been bought by your big brother. From now on, you can all live here as you please, and no one will ever come asking you for money again."

"Really? Thank you, Big Brother."

Ayumi, who had long been sensible, was very grateful; she hugged Akaso Kaze and gave him a kiss.

Then, feeling shy, she buried her head back into Akaso Kaze's embrace.

"I wish Big Brother were my daddy."

She muttered in a low voice.

The corners of Akaso Kaze's mouth curled up slightly, but he said nothing.

Daddies and such—were they important?

Rumble.

Outside, thunder suddenly began to roll.

Then, in a matter of moments, it started pouring rain.

Mrs. Yoshida had just finished washing the dishes and came out, saying apologetically, "Oh my, it's raining. How will Akaso-san get home?"

"It's fine, I have a car..."

"No, I'm afraid of thunder! I want Big Brother Akaso to sleep with me!"

Ayumi hugged Akaso Kaze's neck tightly, terrified that he might run off.

"Huh?"

Akaso Kaze was taken aback.

Wasn't the one I chose... something else?

Could it be that they are also a couple?

What should he do now?

What was that about... how many years was it again?

"A-Ayumi, how can that be? Big Brother should be going..."

Hearing her daughter's request, for some reason, Mrs. Yoshida felt a strange sensation in her heart.

She seemed to hope Akaso Kaze would agree, yet she was also afraid he would.

Akaso Kaze hesitated for a moment.

Outside, another loud crack of thunder struck.

Ayumi shivered in fear.

Akaso Kaze's heart softened instantly.

Ayumi was so cute; who could bear to refuse her request?

"I don't really mind, since I live alone anyway, but I'm not sure if it's convenient for Mrs. Yoshida."

"It's, it's convenient." Mrs. Yoshida's heart felt like it was about to jump out; her chest heaved, and her face was so red it looked like it might bleed.

"Akaso-san can sleep in one room, and Ayumi and I will sleep in the other..."

"No, I want to sleep with Big Brother Akaso."

Ayumi acted spoiled.

Mrs. Yoshida didn't know what to do either.

"How about this: I'll coax her to sleep and then go to the other room."

Akaso Kaze made a difficult decision.

I am truly not a beast!

Akaso Kaze agreed to stay.

Ayumi finally let go of his neck happily.

So she was just afraid he would leave.

Mrs. Yoshida gave Ayumi a bath.

The weather was hot, and after her bath, Ayumi wore a small pink camisole and obediently crawled under the thin sheet.

Her left hand held Akaso Kaze, and her right hand held Mrs. Yoshida.

This forced the two of them to lie on the bed as well.

The atmosphere suddenly became somewhat strange.

Just lying there like this wasn't a solution.

Akaso Kaze coughed once.

"Ayumi, let Big Brother tell you a story."

"Big Brother Akaso can tell stories too?"

Ayumi couldn't quite believe it, because even her mother had never read her bedtime stories to put her to sleep!

But, there was a story to listen to, yay!

Ayumi didn't think much more, nodded her little head excitedly, and said happily, "Mm-hmm, Ayumi loves listening to Big Brother Akaso tell stories!"

"Ahem!" Akaso Kaze cleared his throat and began to tell the story with a hint of nervousness.

"A long, long time ago, in the Kingdom of Arendelle, which was surrounded by the sea and had very beautiful scenery, there lived two cute, beautiful little princesses..."

Ayumi was immediately drawn into the scene by Akaso Kaze's description.

Akaso Kaze's memory had always been quite good; as long as he had seen something, he could remember the fine details of movies or manga clearly.

He spoke slowly: "The older sister was named Elsa, and the younger sister was named Anna. Anna was very lively, and she loved to play with her sister."

That's right, the story Akaso Kaze was telling was the globally popular animated movie from his past life, *Frozen*.

Why tell *Frozen*? Naturally, it had to do with Akaso Kaze's abilities.

Ayumi blinked her big eyes and asked curiously, "Big Brother Akaso, why do their names sound like Americans?"

Akaso Kaze smiled slightly, "They aren't Americans, but they are indeed foreigners."

The story was interrupted by the little one, and Akaso Kaze continued. The following plot wouldn't just be about beautiful scenery!

He was getting into the flow; Akaso Kaze's voice was very soft, making people listen intently: "Actually, the older sister Elsa had the magic ability to create ice and snow from a young age. It was as if, with a wave of her arm, many snowflakes would drift down..."

That's right, Akaso Kaze told this story because he was a mage.

Isn't it normal for a mage to tell magic stories?

Ayumi's gaze followed the movement of Akaso Kaze's arm; she seemed to truly see the snowflakes dancing. Her little face was very devout and full of envy.

"Magic, wow, so amazing!"
