"What?"
Teach? I have to teach a kid? A kid teaching a kid? My sleep time is ruined....
"He is talented in magic so I will teach him myself with your siblings. Though, I won't teach him like I teach with them. When it comes to studies, it will be you. You will be also help him undercover here" I feel like father making me work. I hate work
"Luke will be in your care. I will introduce him to your siblings later once they return" just with those words, he already said everything I have to do.
I guess this is a secret between the three of us.
But.... father is really an idiot. I can clearly see what is his goal.
Hehehe...... But I have grudge on him as I have to work.

I escorted him secretly to his room. He is very obedient. Once we go to his room, I tried to find the lens in my pocket. The color is purple. My eye lens is silver gray. I started using it everyday since my first time to attend the party.
"Come, sit" I said with an emotionless face
I only said long words if I have to explain. And more I'm in a bad mood....
"Hold" I said as I put the lens in his eyes. Though, it hurts for him a little but he has to have this.
Now that I'm closer, he is very much more adorable. His now purple eyes makes him very good expression than red eyes. If I were an ordinary girl, my heart would skip a lot... but I am lazy.
I should made him a little bit useful. How about cooking my foods? This worlds foods lacks taste. Making him my personal chef sounds nice. It's decided

"Here, clothes"
I gave him his clothes prepared by father and groom him a little. Wait... aren't I am like a maid?
Oh, well. This boy will surely want revenge on them. Maybe I should teach him until university level? Of course, he has to cook for me everyday once I taught him how to cook
We never introduce ourselves. I guess I have to start first with this quiet guy
"Anyway, I'm Miki Linux. Nice to meet you..."
"Luke. Call me Luke"
"..."
The atmosphere became silence. My eyes are very sleepy. I need to go to the library and sleep there.
I stood up breaking the silence and headed to the door.
"Then, I'll go now" I said as I open the door but was stop halfway
"Wait"
"..." instead of talking I just stared at him, waiting for him to talk. Too bored
"Where's the library?" this kid stares at me as if I am a maid. He is nervous but where did he get that high pride? Oh, wait. He is a noble after all
Well, everyone here avoids me except my family. They hate me after all. I bet he is too, with this appearance of mine.
"Come" I said as I take him to the library
We really have a short conversation.
I am wary about him as he is. Add the fact that he's parent's are killed. I wonder when we will have a proper conversation...
But first, I'll make him a chef. It's punishment for what he did to me. (To be a teacher)

The Forest Dark
Alexa González is alone. That’s fine. Following the sudden loss of her long-time gaming partner, Alexa has fallen back to old, nasty habits; namely, wielding her independent nature like a weapon. It’s one thing to be a solo player by choice. It’s another to be a pariah when the UI disappears, taking the logout button with it. Justin Hayes is not alone. That’s also fine. As a long-time streamer, Justin’s never played DUSKFALL without an audience to keep his attention off the demon-infested forests and brutal violence. But hastily chosen teammates in a world gone sideways can have more repercussions than a few bruised feelings. None of this is fine; not remotely. If either is going to survive, they can’t do it alone, they can’t do it lightly, and they have to figure it out soon... before it’s too late for either of them. Guaranteed Wednesday updates.Contains light LitRPG elements
