Chapter : 44 : The Morning Sun light
Everyone was stretching and warming up in the garden under the fresh morning sunlight while Shioinkin watched over them.
Everyone was present—except Yuzurei.
Musukoni stretched his arms above his head.
Musukoni: "Ahh… today's morning feels really fresh."
He said with a calm smile.
Jin Yuan: "Where is Yuzurei?"
He asked quietly while stretching his legs.
Emily: "Huh? He's always like that. Soo late as usual."
She said with her soft warm smile.
At the mention of Yuzurei, Shinoki immediately blushed.
Musukoni: "Maybe he's snoring in his room."
Meanwhile, in the room, Yuzurei was snoring loudly—mumbling nonsense in his sleep.
Back in the garden—
Shioinkin: "He'll arrive soon."
He said, grinning widely like he already knew the truth.
After a short while, Yuzurei finally appeared, messy white hair all over the place, left eye covered by the cloth from his past battle.
Yuzurei: "Seems I was early."
He stretched lazily.
Musukoni: "Huh? You're not early. You're late again."
Yuzurei ignored it with his usual grin and casually stretched beside Shinoki.
Shinoki: "U-umm… g-good morning… Yuzurei…"
Her cheeks instantly turned pink.
Yuzurei: "Ah—yeah! Good morning!"
He replied energetically.
Shinoki's blush deepened even more just from hearing his voice.
Emily: "Seems we can start now."
Jin Yuan nodded calmly, while Musukoni noticed Shinoki's bright red face—but didn't say anything. He just smiled knowingly to himself.
