Kouske's POV
Last night I got a call from the representative of the gangsters saying that they have located someone who fits the description of Lavinia and the device also reacted to her.
It seems it's already been one and a half months since her parents' death. I guess I would need to hurry to get her. So I went to the gangsters to get her exact location. I told them all to be present. I used taming on them so that no one could ever divulge anything intentionally or unintentionally. Better safe than sorry. It was fortunate that only a few had seen Akatsuki. I also tasked them to find out about Momoji Nakiri's whereabouts.
Afterward, I used teleportation skills to directly teleport inside Lavinia's home.
Lavinia Reni's POV
I was normally living happily with my parents that is until one year ago. One night when I woke up to get some water I saw her. A doll-like woman in a dress, her face covered in a veil.
She was standing there beside my bed looking straight at me. I was so scared I shouted and told my parents about her no one could see her. They said I had a bad dream and stayed by my side until I fell asleep.
But that was just the beginning. She NEVER left my side. I would see her every day following me everywhere I go without making the tiniest bit of sound. Her face was always expressionless.
No matter how much I cried and told my parents about her they would never believe me. Before long I was labeled as a weird kid. Even my friends would not play with me anymore.
My parents took me to multiple psychiatrists but no matter what I said they would dismiss it as my delusion. At some point, I stopped complaining about her. She never truly did anything bad to me. She never harmed me. She would just stay by my side even when nobody believed me.
Even now after my parent's death, she's the only one who I can confide in. My parents had an accident a month and a half ago. They couldn't be saved. None of my relatives want me. They see me as a weird kid talking about imaginary things.
"Don't fuck with me!" A blonde-haired fat woman shouted at a middle-aged man and added in a loud tone, "Andrea was your sister, Andrew! As her brother, isn't it your responsibility to take care of her orphaned daughter?!"
"Why the hell is it only my responsibility?!" the middle-aged man named Andrew retorted back with a question and added, "When your husband is Lavinia's direct paternal Uncle, he is equally responsible for taking care of Lavinia as I am!"
"That girl keeps talking about her weird doll all the time...And you expect us to adopt her witnessing everything yourself?? I am telling you that girl is either crazy or she is bewitched by some evil spirit! I can't even tolerate her in my sight, it would be better if we give her to the church....at least there they would be able to cleanse her soul!" a man in his forties said while exhaling a puff of smoke.
Even now they are arguing about who should take me in. I couldn't help but be sad. Am I not wanted by anyone? Am I not needed? Both my friends and relatives want me gone. A short stream of water drops from my eyes.
When I was thinking all this someone knocked on my door. Upon opening, I saw a handsome blonde boy with oceanic blue eyes looking at me tenderly with a smile on his face. He looked even younger than me. I never knew someone like him.
Kouske's POV
I find myself inside a dining room. I could hear many adults arguing with each other loudly enough that one might hear them from outside.
I could feel a large amount of magic coming from a room far from where adults were arguing. That must be the magical power of the independent type Longinus, Absolute Demise.
So I quickly make my way towards the room. I make myself known by knocking on the door. The door was opened by a cute blonde girl with sapphire blue eyes. She was about nine years old. I could see her resemblance to her future self. She might not have her mature innocent beauty yet, but she is cute nonetheless.
"Hello!" I said with my brightest smile.
"H-hello.Who are you?" she replied with slight pink shades forming on her face.
Man, I love being handsome. It has its perks!
"I'm Kouske Miyamura. Your friendly neighborhood magician! " I said while striking a pose and making fireworks bloom behind me with some magic.
Lavinia looked shocked.
"M-magician?!They are real?!"
"Hm! So what's your name, girl?"
"Lavinia Reni"
"So Rey-chan, huh? You can also just call me Kouske" I said shamelessly.
"Okay," she muttered not knowing what to say.
"Do you want to see some magic, Lavinia?"
[A/N: I guess I will make him call her Rey-chan when teasing her or being affectionate with her like he does with Asagi-chan.Otherwise, he will just call her Lavinia]
"You will show me?!" she replied excitedly at the prospect of seeing real magic.
"Hm!" I nodded smugly. I came onto her and lifted her in my arms. She let out a cute yelp. I teleported us to the top of the Adriatic Sea between Italy and Europe.
Her hands hugged me tighter when she realized we were free-falling into the sea. She hid her face in my chest. I summoned my jet-black wings as we glide through air on the surface of the sea.[Italy is 8 hours behind Japan. So if it's early morning in Japan, it's late night in Italy]
"Rey-chan~, look ahead. Don't worry. I would never let anything bad happen to you"
Hearing my words she uncovered her face. She couldn't help but be amazed by the sea of stars reflecting on the surface of the water under the beautiful full moon as we glide through the air.
It was an extraordinary scenery. With time she got over her fear and started enjoying the supernatural scenic beauty. Over a few hours, we visited many different mountains and forests in Italy. I even showed her some spectacular magic with different elements. Finally, we decided to go back to her house.
"That was amazing, Ko-kun!" she said while hugging him tightly. In the course of their time together she has become less reserved with him.
"Unn.." I smile as I return the hug.
"Then it's time for me to get back. It's already so late in the night" I speak with a solemn expression.
"You're leaving??" she asked realizing it was time to say goodbye.
"Will we meet again?" she asked hopefully. Today was one of the happiest she had ever been in the last year. She didn't want it to end like this.
"It's hard to say. I live in a faraway country. I was only here on some business. I don't know when I will be back"
"Then..can you take me with you?" she said with some hesitation.
"You want to come with me?"
"Unn.." she nodded.
"But you will be away from your family. We don't know when you will be able to meet them again"
"It doesn't matter. My parents are not here anymore and the others don't want me" she said with some sad inclinations in her tone.
"Then...sure.I will take you with me. Your friend can also come with us if you want"
"My friend??" she asked being confused
"The doll behind you. She was always with us by your side. Is she not your friend?"
"You...you can see her?!" she asked shocked
"Yes. Why would I not be able to? I'm a magician, remember"
She started crying suddenly. I panicked and asked if something happened.
"I'm just happy knowing that she's not just my imagination...that I'm not crazy like they said"
I just hugged her silently. After about ten minutes she calmed down. Then she packed up her things along with some of her parents' mementos and photos. At this time I burned into the adults' room and used hypnosis on them so they wouldn't go to the police first thing in the morning to save face.
These guys were still going at it until this moment. I made it so they would never bother her unnecessarily nor would they try to embezzle her out of her property. I also made a note to myself to make proper documents for her to live in Japan unhindered.
After everything was done we teleported outside my house.
"Welcome to your new home, Lavinia," I said while opening the door for her.
"Yes!" she replied happily.
This is how I started living with the Ice Princess better known as the Demise Girl.
