It was not until the early morning when it was almost here that Noah returned to her apartment.

When he opened the door, the room without a trace of light came into Noah's eyes and told Noah that his other two cohabitants had already fallen into a deep sleep.

Under such circumstances, Noah deliberately slowed down his movements, gently brought the door, and then entered his room and leaned the holy sword of the sky flashing in his hand against the wall.

At this time, a breathing sound became a little rapid.

Noah was stunned for a moment, then she remembered it.

For demons, the Holy Sword is an incredible natural enemy.

Noah entered the room with a holy sword. The powerful sacred aura on the holy sword could not have stimulated the demons living here.

So Noah turned around, looked in the direction of the bed, and scratched her face a little apologetically.

"Sorry, did you wake you up?"

The kitten in pajamas wearing a cute cat-printed pattern shook his head gently, and his eyes stayed on the Holy Sword of Sky Flash. After a while, he turned his head and looked at Noah, with doubts in his eyes.

Obviously, the kitten was wondering why Noah had this holy sword in his hand.

Didn't Noah go out to find Cockbor?

Could it be that Noah found Cockbor and grabbed a holy sword from Cockbor?

"I didn't find Cockbor, I just found a guy who worked under Cockbor's men." Noah seemed to see through what the kitten was thinking. He briefly explained the situation.

"The Holy Sword was obtained from that guy."

The kitten nodded relievedly, but his eyes kept moving towards the holy sword.

“…annoying feeling…”

"Well, it's a holy sword no matter what. Although it's useless to me, there's no reason to lose it. I brought it back like that." Noah came to the bed, sat on the edge of the bed, lowered her head, and looked at Elsa who was sleeping soundly in the quilt and smiling, and couldn't help but smile.

"It seems that Elsa is in a much better mood."

The kitten nodded gently and said something concisely.

"Those two church people said too much to Senior Sister Aisha."

"I know." Noah stretched out his hand and stroked the hair on Elsa's forehead with some pity.

"Everyone has one, two pasts that cannot be looked back on. Elsa is just a little richer."

Noah was completely inspired by this sentence.

After hearing Noah's words, the kitten's beautiful eyes, which shine like real cats in the dark night, flashed in complex emotions.

"Does the teacher have a past that is unbearable to look back on?"

Hearing this, Noah's mind immediately emerged at the time when he was adopted by Makarov.

At that time, Noah didn't know where he came from, nor did he know what he was. He didn't even understand language and had no memory. What he presented was complete confusion and blankness.

That is hell for Noah, who has a mature consciousness.

It was like being in a nightmare and unable to wake up, it was very uncomfortable. At that time, Noah had only endless confusion and emptiness.

Later, after learning language and becoming Makarov's adopted grandson, Noah was looked at by people around him with tinted glasses, just like Laxus.

So, confusion and emptiness retreated. Instead, they were nervous about the surroundings.

That period of time was the most unbearable past for Noah to look back on?

Even Elusa couldn't bear to mention it. She felt unimaginable past.

"Everyone can have it." Noah smiled bitterly.

"Aren't you the same?"

The kitten suddenly fell silent, and the expression in his eyes became more complicated.

Noah, who clearly saw the emotions in the kitten's eyes, suddenly changed his mind.

"But that's always just the past, and it's no longer worth mentioning now."

The kitten was stunned for a moment, then his brows frowned deeply, as if he disagreed with Noah's words.

"Can the teacher's past be abandoned so easily?"

Facing the kitten's words that were equivalent to questioning, Noah nodded without hesitation.

"Of course, I now have reliable friends, family members who love me, and lovers who are closest. In such a happy situation, I can give up even the past that I can't bear to look back on!"

The kitten's brows became deeper and deeper, and his eyes at Noah became increasingly disagreeable.

"Because you are so happy now that you can forget the sad past? That's just an escape!"

"Even if you don't forget the sad past at this time of happiness, you endure the pain alone when others want you to be happy. Do you think this is not an escape?" Noah looked at the kitten with a smile.

"No matter whether you feel happy or painful now, as long as you don't face it, it's already considered an escape. I can face it calmly, so I can give up. Even if you feel pain and don't face it, you can only bear it forever."

The kitten suddenly became silenced.

"Don't make things too difficult for yourself." Noah curled the smile on her face, sighed, touched the kitten's head, and said softly.

"No matter what kind of past you have, it's good. You can choose to face or escape. But if everyone around you wants you to be happy, then you have the obligation to be happy. Kitten, don't give up if you can't give up, but don't bear it alone, don't forget those around you who care about you."

After saying that, Noah's hand, which stroked the kitten's head, slowly went downwards, and began to stroke the kitten's smooth and cute pretty face.

"If such a cute face is always so heavy, it would be a pity."

The kitten woke up and saw Noah's face that was very close to him, feeling the warm big hands that were stroking his cheeks, and his pretty face couldn't help but turn red.

“…a vulgar teacher…”

"Anyway, I'm a vulgar teacher with three fiancées." Noah smiled teasingly.

"Or the kitten will marry me when he grows up."

As soon as this sentence was said, the kitten answered immediately.

"don't want!"

"I'm very sad when you refuse so quickly, okay?" Noah, who faced the kitten with a joking attitude, was speechless.

"At least hesitate?"

"No!" The kitten patted Noah's hand that was stroking on his cheek, and looked at Noah with half-closed eyes.

"I won't marry a vulgar teacher who has three fiancées!"

Noah couldn't help feeling angry when she was so unceremoniously disliked by the kitten. The hand that was slapped off by the kitten immediately stroked the kitten's cheek.

However, before the kitten slapped his hand off, Noah's hand that was stroking the kitten's cheeks turned into a pinch of the kitten's chin, lifted the kitten's face and pointed it at him.

"You are the relative of Rias, Rias is my engagement, so you are equivalent to my servant. Do you think you can escape?" Noah said with a smile without giving the kitten a chance to react.

"Otherwise, put my mark on you first."

After saying that, Noah quickly lowered her head and kissed the kitten's tender lips heavily.

"!"

The kitten's eyes instantly opened to the largest ever.

While the kitten was stunned because of shock, Noah had already pried open the kitten's mouth and captured the tip of the kitten's tongue.

"Um! Um!" The kitten then reacted, raised his pink fist and kept hitting Noah's chest.

As a castle (rook) with super high attack power and super high defense power, the kitten's strange power is very amazing. Even if it is impossible to compare with Noah's giant incarnation, it can smash rocks higher than humans with one punch, let alone hit the body of a mortal body.

However, the kitten was unable to use its own strange power at all. The originally extremely terrifying pink boxing hit Noah's chest, which was as soft as an ordinary girl, without any strength at all.

"Um...chuck...hmm..."

In this way, it naturally opened a convenient door for Noah, and simply hugged the kitten's petite body in his arms and tasted the kitten's tender lips and tongue.

The kitten's pink fist hitting Noah's chest became increasingly weak.

In the end, the kitten just pressed his hand on Noah's chest, his eyes closed unconsciously, and his emotions began to become excited. Unconsciously, he was brought in by Noah's rhythm and devoted himself to the pleasure he had never tried before.

Noah, who was originally just trying to tease the kitten, also got involved.
