"Lyra, look at me."

Early in the morning, Cyan quickly seized Lyra as she lazily walked out from her room.

"What is it, Dad?"

"Who are you?"

Cyan asked with a serious expression that made Lyra surprised.

She blinked several times and only after a few seconds passed did she manage to open her mouth. But this was the words that exited her small mouth.

"...Dad, are you sick?"

To Lyra's question, Papa Cyan's answer was...

"Answer me. Introduce yourself properly, give me your complete basic information."

With his serious expression as he tried to interrogate her, Lyra decided to give him what he wanted and see what he was aiming for!

"...? I am Alrescha Lyra Hartmann. I was born on Day 25 Month 7 Year 970, which means I turned six just recently. I'm living with my mom, dad, big brother, and several employees at my house... -long details omitted-"

"Good. That... consider that as a practice for your entrance interview!"

"...?"

Lyra tilted her head in confusion, but then she concluded that her father would want to help her practice for the entrance exams, so why not?

"Eh, then Dad, let's have this kind of practice again until my entrance interview. Please tell me what I should and should not say!"

Lyra innocently requested for more of this weirdness!

Cyan felt a bit guilty but he managed to smile and said, "Sure."

However, instead of letting her go, Cyan continued to stare at Lyra, which made Lyra confused.

"Uhm...?"

"Hmm... Lyra, see this."

Cyan took out a cross and pointed it at Lyra.

"...Uh, yes?"

"How do you feel?"

"...Nothing?"

Cyan then touched the cross lightly to Lyra's forehead and Lyra's chest.

"Dad...? Are you giving me your blessing for something?"

"Ah, yeah, it's for your studies and training so that your entrance exam is going on well."

"Thank you, Dad!" Lyra hugged Cyan softly.

To think that Dad would help me a lot in facing my entrance exams!

Lyra genuinely believed that and her chest became warm.

"Alright, the water should be ready. You should prepare yourself to take a bath."

"Okay~!"

Before Lyra reached the bathroom, Cyan quickly went to Cassie's side.

"Cass, have you purified the bath water as I have told you to?" Cyan then asked Cassie, who heaved a long, long sigh.
