I thought Eris would be furious.
I thought she would recoil in disgust, reject me, maybe even look at me like some kind of monster.
But reality?
The exact opposite.
Not only was she not angry—she wasn't even slightly upset.
Instead, she was understanding. Patient. Genuinely worried about me.
Eris is… really nice.
Like an angel of some sort.
And as I sit here beside her, warmth settling in my chest, I can't help but wonder—
Am I… just incredibly lucky?
The thought brings a small, genuine smile to my lips.

"But… you don't seem that surprised?"
"Huh? Surprised?" Eris tilts her head, ears twitching slightly. "About what?"
"The fact that I'm from another world!" I blurt out, still baffled by how casually she's taking all of this.
"Oh. That." Eris chuckles and reaches over to ruffle my hair. "Maybe that's because it was already one of the possibilities I considered."
"…Eh???" I blink at her, utterly stunned.
She knew?!
