"Want to go to that stall, Erwin?"

I nod excitedly after walking for a while in the market, the weather is good and it's warmer than it usually is, maybe the winter will end soon, just kidding.

"Woah...."

I look excitedly to the stall in front of me, it full of knickknacks and they all look so beautiful.

"Oh, welcome, welcome, you guys look awesome today, what can I help you with"

A bald uncle greets us with high spirits, he looks so happy, maybe because of this beautiful day, I look around and did see lots of people in the market, this place is getting pretty lively.

"I see this place become lively again, it's a great day isn't it?"

"Hahaha, yeah, the weather is good today, it's warmer than usual, so people start doing their usual activities like before"

"Woah... uncle look, look"

I'm pointing at the red gem necklace that looks so shiny among the other things here.

"Oh.. you sure have a good eyes young boy, I'm sure it will go well with that beautiful girl over there"

Girl?

I look into the direction where the uncle pointed out to and it's Aura-chan he mentioned, I turn my head to the merchant with a confused look.

"Eh, did I wrong?"

"Bwahahahaha...."

Uncle Alto burst out a laugh right in the middle of the crowd here, why is he laughing so hard like that, what's funny here?

Uncle Alto starts to pat my shoulder a couple of times while trying to hold his laughter, but it seems he can't and just keeps giggling.

"Ahhh.. this boy wants to give his big sister a souvenir, he actually comes from the south *giggling"

Uncle Alto, can you stop giggling please? what are you laughing at seriously, I'm so confused about what is happening here right now.

"Ahh... I'm sorry for my rudeness, but I'm sure your sister is someone awesome, she had a very handsome brother like you, you must really love your sister eh young boy"

I nod and smile excitedly to the merchant, of course, I love my sister, she's the best sister in the world and I really want to brag everything about her.

I look at other stuff the merchant offer, I want to give it to Elis-san as a thank gift for taking care of Ilya-nee, but she's noble, and I don't have that much money to give her fancy stuff.

"Just give that red-haired girl anything you think will look good on her, I think she's not a bad person"

Uncle Alto pat at my head and smile, he's such a sweet person to not thinking too hard about what I have to give to Elis-san....Wait, this isn't right, uncle Alto, did you actually able to read my mind or something? what kind of magic is that? is he actually a terrifying person? some high-class magician?

"It's not magic or anything you think of, I can see it all written on your face, just don't think of anything rude"

Uncle Alto punch my head, I cover up my head and crouch to hold the pain, honestly he's not hitting it too hard, but suddenly punch me from the back like that is still hurt, why did he do that to a little kid like me anyway, you will pay for it, just wait uncle Alto.

*smack

"Awww..."

"You thinking of something disrespectful right? at least don't look at me with thoughts like that in your mind [Sigh...]"

Aww... he really won't hold back to a kid like me, I can only rub at my lump head and try to endure the pain.

"A-Are you fine Erwin-san?"

"Ah, don't worry Aura-chan, it's nothing for me"

Ahh... Aura-chan is so kind, I'm happy I able to be friends with her, I need to protect her, I will protect Ilya-nee and everyone, I clenched my fist and give a big smile to Aura-chan so she won't be worried about this.

"Ah, maybe you can give her this"

Uncle Alto hand me a bracelet, I look at it and it's really simple, the design isn't really fancy, it got a string an pull them together to use the bracelet, but the crystal on top of it, it covers the bracelet, it's the same shape as the bracelet, I hope Elis-san will accept it if I give it to her.

Suddenly something dazzling my left eyes, I look at a silver earing that blend in with rings and bracelets, I pick it up and look at it closely, this one is really shiny and so pretty. I unconsciously start looking at Aura-chan who's been standing behind us all this time.

"I think it will look good on her, try it on"

I think uncle Alto actually understand what is going in my mind, I approach Aura-chan and try to convince her to try it, this earing is so pretty, I bet they will look good when Aura-chan uses it.
