Not sure if it was a lie to say that they would sort out Cheon Sa-yeon's past, from the next day, Elohim and Elahah took out all the red books from the library and laid them out on the floor of the library.

Thanks to that, I was banned from entering the library for the time being. This was because, like the last time, if I touched Cheon Sa-yeon's book without knowing it, the problem of the future price would be complicated.

Piii.

"Haa..."

The fox bit the branch and ran happily. When I saw it, I sighed.

"Let's stop."

It was already the 17th time. I had no idea where it was so much fun to come with a branch that had been thrown away.

Piik! Piii!

As if understanding my lament, the fox raised its tail up and began to make noise about something. There was nothing to do anyway, but it sounded like he was telling me to throw it.

"I get it, I get it."

There was nothing to refute, so I threw the branch back. After doing that ten more times, the fox seemed to be satisfied, so he lay down at my feet and yawned with his little round body.

He had been playing hard, so it was nap time? He looked very similar to a child.

There was nothing special, so I sat down next to the fox. I looked up at the blue sky, feeling my bangs fluttering in the pleasant breeze.

It had already been five days since I read Han Yi-gyeol's book. As Elohim said, I need to dream more to see Cheon Sa-yeon's past that will be completed in the future, but even if I ate black candy, the fourth dream hadn't yet come.

Before that, there was some time between the first dream and the second dream, but it wasn't as long as this time. Even if I tried to relax, I couldn't help but feel nervous.

'...I don't know.'

Even if I asked Elohim, he only gave me an incomprehensible answer that dreams always came when I needed them. As I looked at the clouds passing slowly for a long time, the fox, who was lying on his back with his eyes closed, pricked his ears and raised his head.

"You look bored."

Surprisingly, it was Elahah who appeared with the sound of rustling and crushing of grass. I got up with awkwardness.

"Elahah."

Unlike Elohim, who I met and talked to every day, I was still a bit awkward with Elahah because we rarely met. Elahah didn't seem to want to get close to me, so it was ambiguous to approach him first.

"Or maybe I'm disturbing you when you're having a good time?"

Elahah, who saw the fox waving its tail with its body upright as I did, made fun of me as I smoothed the nape of my neck awkwardly.

"It's not that. He keeps following me. I don't know why."

"Of course, he's following you because he's interested in you."

Elahah, who replied in a sour tone, handed me the small paper bag he was holding.

"Take it."

"What is it?"

"Eat when you're hungry."

When I opened the paper bag, I could smell the fragrant scent. It contented freshly made warm waffles.

"El and I will have to stay in the library today."

"Are you that busy?"

At those words, I felt sorry for him. It seemed that my greed had given two people a job for nothing.
