 The morning sun shines through the gaps in the curtains.
 The soft black hair touches my neck as I rub my eyes, and I feel the warmth on my chest.

"Kuro, good morning."

"I'm still sleepy. Kuro, still sleep.』

"Yes yes. Then I'll get up first."

 When I woke up, Kuro, who had lost the futon called me, moved his coldly curled up body.

 Next to the morning preparations, Kuro still doesn't look like he's getting up. Kuro usually sleeps a lot. After coming to the land of the Black Spirit, I was told that it was necessary to recover my physical strength in the royal capital where there was little nature.
 However, even after coming to this land where there is a lot of nature and should be comfortable for the spirits, seeing how he sleeps well, he probably likes lounging around.

"I'll be out for a bit. I'll be right back."

 Even though I know that I won't get a reply, I leave the room after calling out to him.
 The destination, of course, is Louis-sama's room. It's become my daily routine to go see Louis-sama's face after finishing the preparations in the morning.
 That's because I open the curtains in Louis-sama's room and change the air. He doesn't forget to look at his complexion and talk to him.
 I know I'll never open my eyes yet, but I'm always hopeful. Today, I might wake up.

 --knock Knock

"I'm Rachel. Louis-sama, I'm going to enter the room."

 I knocked and called out as usual. Then she takes a deep breath and then slowly pulls the doorknob.

"e……?"

 The room was still dark with the curtains closed. On the bed in the room, the same beautiful person was lying with her eyelids tightly closed. ……It was supposed to be.
 My mind went blank for a moment when the room was different from what I had imagined.

 --Why, why, why...

 The room with the door open was filled with natural light.

 Of course, the curtain had already been opened.
 That's why I could instantly understand who the man standing by the window was. Even without looking at her, her blond hair, shining brightly in the sunlight, swayed softly in the wind from the open window.

“Lu, Louis……sama……”

 The voice that whispered to disappear must have reached her properly. With his back turned, he slowly turned around.

 ――Lui-sama… really woke up….

 I was overwhelmed with emotion and burst into tears. I can't move my legs well when I try to run forward.
 However, the moment I saw Louis-sama's face when I turned around, I heard the sound of broken glass ringing in the back of my head.

"... why... you? Is this a dream?"

 The moment Louis-sama turned around and saw my face, he frowned suspiciously. His eyes, which seemed to pierce me, were cold. Those eyes were the same as when I last saw him in my previous life.

 I thought over and over again. I'm sure when Louis-sama wakes up, she'll look at my face and call me "Rachelle" with a gentle smile.

 But it was nothing more than a convenient dream for me.

 It's not like I didn't think about this possibility after hearing about a parallel world from the Black Spirit King Nell-sama. Still, it's been too long to admit that this is indeed the case.
