After everything that happened, I realized that everyone could die, even my parents. My dad, if it wasn't for my help and everything, would have probably not have been able to confront Allocer on his own.

That True Demon was something beyond our power, perhaps stronger than Arachne when possessed by Lolth, simply ridiculous.

I was afraid that he might die, or that I might die...

So sometimes, when we go through stuff like this, we feel like we need to hug those we love and let them know we love them and to appreciate the moments we have with them.

Because I wish I could do the same for those we lost.

"Haha! I love you too Sylphy," my father said, suddenly lifting me up. "What happened? Did you think your father was going to die or something? Hah! Aren't you looking down too much on me?! I got a dozen more trump cards, you just didn't get to see them yet!"

"W-What? Hey, don't lift me! I'm not a kid anymore!" I groaned. "I'm fifteen now!"

"To me you'll always me my baby girl," he said, kissing my forehead. "Anyways, sit down and let me give you something to eat. I made a lot."

He let me go quite easily, as he quickly continued preparing pancakes, there was already a huge pile of them right in the middle of the table.

"Sure!"

I ran to grab a plate and other things and placed them over the table, leaving it ready for everyone to eat. As I did, dad served me five pancakes, poured syrup, some whipped cream, butter, and strawberries.

"There you go, for your opening, I bet you're starving," he quickly gave me a cup of hot coffee. "There, you're old enough, right? So might as well start drinking what the adults drink. Do you like coffee? I don't recall seeing you drink it before."

"I don't really like it being so bitter..." I complained. "I like sweet things, usually I prefer tea of any kind, herbal tea with different flavors is tasty too."

"Well this coffee is a blend from the dwarves, it has cocoa on it, also I put some cream, so it should be much softer and less bitter," my dad said.

He sure likes to spoil me; I even feel a bit bad...

"Aren't you spoiling me a bit too much dad?" I wondered. "Mom would be already telling you this is too much!"

"What? Well, your mom's not here haha!" he laughed, petting my head. "You know your father loves you so just let me spoil you once in a while!"

Once in a while? He's always doing it...

Well, that's one of the things I like about dad.

"Well okay- Let me try the coffee... Hm?"

Oh, it was pretty good, actually! The blend of the coffee, the cream and the cocoa was pretty nice, I never thought it could be this good.

"It's good!" I said.

"Right? Glad you liked it!" dad nodded.

As I started eating pancakes, the rest of my spirits and familiars glanced at me with hungry expressions in their faces.

Ah, right...

"Let me serve you guys some food too, come!"

At the end, the whole group of familiars ended eating with me, my dad had already grown used to it.

"You're probably one of the few people in the world that just eats with their familiars like this, Sylphy," my father laughed.

"What? No way, nobody else does this?!" I asked.

"Do you see me doing it?" he asked. "Most familiars don't really need to eat that much, and those that do are usually tamed monsters, they can eat on their own times of the day." "Oh..." I glared at my familiars. "Well! They ain't monsters! They're my friends, right guys?" They nodded, roared, and agreed with my words. ŔἁƝꝋ฿ĚṦ

"I am not her pet, so I deserve to eat if I want to!" said Beelzebub.

"We've agreed on that I get to eat in the table whenever I desire!" Ignatius roared.

"I really don't mind eating in another time or on my own, but Sylphy always insists," sighed Furoh. f

"Guuuuuhh! I like eating food!" Violet only said that.

"I can't really eat food though... But I like how it looks," Scarlet said.

"Yeah..." Sapphire agreed.

"I was invited by Naturia..." Yggdra said. "I don't really know if its good manners to eat with a master or not, I apologize."

"Nah mama it's fine!" Naturia said.

"Kyuuhh!" Brownie was eating a large amount of vegetables, mostly tubers.

"Waaf! Warf!" Glutton ate anything I gave to him.

"A-Ahahah... I see..."

My father could only smile nervously, it felt like the group was getting gout of proportions in terms of numbers and their sizes.

"Aren't you all a lively group?" sighed Celeste, coming down the stairs.

"Woah everyone is out?!" Celica also accompanied her.

"Hey girls! You're finally here, I am already about to eat all the pancakes, so hurry up!" I

Giggled.

"Eeeh? Not fair Sylphy!" Celica came running. "Wait, there are a lot left!"

"It was just a prank," I said. "Did you sleep well?"

"Hm, yeah, I slept fine..." Celica nodded, sitting by my left side, and then hugging me. "And

You?"

"Fine too!" I kissed her cute forehead, right between her two horns. "Aren't you cute today

Too? You're like a doll sometimes, Celica!"

I couldn't help but pet her little head.

"I'm not a doll!" Celica pouted. "But thank you! Your hair looks so bright and shiny today too,

How do you maintain it so red?"

"It's just how I was born," I laughed. "But I do use a lot of different oil extracts to keep it silky

And healthy."

"Ooh, nice! Can you share some with me later?" she wondered.

"Sure! I've gathered a huge variety, I can share you as many as you want!" I smiled.

"Thank you Sylphy!" she smiled cutely, beginning to happily eat her pancakes and then also drank some of the coffee. "Hmm! B-bitter... Is this coffee? I thought it was cocoa!"

"Hahaha, it'll keep you energized!" said my father.

"It's good though," Celeste nodded, drinking the coffee but without the added stuff.

"Anyways, where's that irresponsible master at?"

"She's probably still with the-"

"It pains me to hear my disciples call me like that..."

"Uwaaahh?!"

"What the...!"

"Felicia?"

Suddenly, Felicia appeared behind Celeste, scaring us all.
