After that small incident, they didn't waste their time, talking about Galdo since it was a waste of time, and the result of the Gift Game that would be held tomorrow was also quite obvious, right?

They had nothing to worry about, but was it true?

Haru looked at Kuro Usagi, then looked at Jin. He didn't mind erasing Galdo since this guy was just trash and erasing his existence was simply helping the peace of the world. However, helping the "no-name" community was a different matter.

Still, looking at Kuro Usagi and Jin who didn't have that worry, Haru felt that he needed to remind them that his help wasn't so easy to get.

"Where are we going Kuro Usagi?" Asagi asked.

"The game is tomorrow. I was thinking of getting Thousand Eyes to appraise your gifts," Kuro Usagi said.

"Thousand Eyes?" Haru raised his eyebrow.

"It's an extremely large trade community that knows everything about the Little Garden from east to west, north to south, low and high, Haruka-sama," Shiroyuki-hime explained.

"It seems that you know about this community well, Shiroyuki?" Haru asked.

Shiroyuki-hime's expression was a bit unnatural, but she nodded. "I know the leader of this community."

"Now that you mention it." Kuro Usagi looked at Shiroyuki and said, "Shiroyuki-sama has a deep relationship with Shiroyasha-sama, right?"

"Deep relationship, eh?" Haru looked at Shiroyuki weirdly.

"I don't know what you're thinking about Haruka-sama, but I know that you're thinking something rude," Shiroyuki said as she stared at Haru.

"So what kind ---" Haru stopped talking since he could see a cherry blossom bloomed on the street.

"Wow, it's so beautiful!" Asagi forgot what had happened earlier, holding Haru's hand, gazing into the beautiful cherry blossoms that bloomed.

"You're more beautiful, Asagi," Haru said with a smile.

Asagi laughed and rubbed her face on Haru's arm.

".........." Everyone.

'Can you flirt in another place?' They thought at that moment, but the girls had to admit that they were quite jealous of Asagi.

Asuka shook her head and said, "It must be spring in this world. It was midsummer where I came from."

"It was a fall where I was." Yuu looked at Haru and Asagi, then asked, "How about you, Haru, Asagi?"

"Our place?" Asagi rubbed her chin and said, "We're living in the tropical area, after all so it is summer most of the time."

"Ah? Really? Your place must be nice," Asuka said with a bit of envy since she felt that it was quite good to stay in the tropical area.

"It's a beautiful place." Asagi nodded and wanted to say something, but when she noticed Haru's gaze, she didn't continue the words that came out from her mouth. She knew that it should be a secret that they could go back to their own world and they shouldn't tell anyone.

Haru sighed in relief when he saw Asagi's quick reaction. If this girl really told their secret, then he might punish her tonight. Still, looking at her smile, this girl really asked for punishment.

"Yes, you have already noticed it. I summoned you all from different worlds. Aside from your timelines, there should be differences between your histories and cultures, as well," Kuro Usagi said with a smile.

"Parallel worlds, huh?"

"More specifically, it's the "Parallel World Intersection Theory."

As they talked, Yuu pointed at the nearby building with a traditional Japanese design and asked, "Kuro Usagi, is that the place?"

Haru also observed the building and even though the size of the building seemed to be quite normal, he could see that it should be quite massive inside. Still, he didn't understand why someone wanted to live in a traditional Japanese house. It wasn't that he didn't understand the romance, but it was quite uncomfortable, considering it was cold and it was also quite noisy since the wind often caused a lot of noise. However, this was a different world, so it should be different, right?

"Yes, that's the Thousands Eyes'..."

Before Kuro Usagi finished her words, someone suddenly ran out from the building and ran in their direction.

"It's been a while, Kuro Usagi!"

Haru looked at the loli girl with blue silvery hair, wearing a mini skirt kimono, running toward their direction happily.

As the little girl jumped, Kuro Usagi was hugged and they entangled to each other before they fell into the river nearby.

Haru saw the little girl rubbing her face on Kuro Usagi's two softest things, which made him feel a bit envious. However, he still maintained his calm expression since Asagi was staring at him with a smile.

"Get away from me!"

Kuro Usagi threw the little girl.

Haru saw the little girl was thrown in his direction so he caught her naturally. "Are you alright?"

"......."

However, the little girl didn't say anything and kept staring at him before she tried to pull Haru's mask.

Haru naturally dodged the little girl's hand and flipped her directly and slapped her butts without hesitation!

*Slap!*

The clear crisp sound was heard by everyone which made them slightly stunned.

Asagi, Asuka, Yuu, and Izayoi didn't think too much since they didn't know who this little girl was and they thought that Haru wanted to punish the little girl since this little girl wanted to pull his mask. However, Kuro Usagi, Shiroyuki, and Jin were dumbfounded when they saw Haru slap the little girl's butts.

"Don't be naughty." Haru put down the little girl on the ground since he was afraid that this little girl might pull his mask again.

The little girl wanted to pull Haru's mask again, but...

"Shiroyasha-sama, please don't cause trouble for my master." Shiroyuki appeared in front of Haru to stop the little girl.

"Huh? Shiroyuki, how come you're here? You're not at the edge of the world?" The little girl asked in surprise.

"I lost in a Gift Game against Haruka-sama so I have become his maid. From now on, I'll follow him," Shiroyuki said politely.

"Oh-ho?" The little girl looked at Haru in interest and asked, "What's your name, boy?"

"Boy?" Haru raised his eyebrow and asked, "You're not younger than me?"

The little girl laughed hard and smiled brightly.

"Haruka-sama, Shiroyasha-sama is at least millennium older than you," Shiroyuki said.

"I'm not that old! I'm only 1000 years old or so! Also, don't you know that it is rude to mention a lady's age?!" Shiroyasha looked at Shiroyuki angrily.

"........."

Haru looked at the little girl whose name was Shiroyasha and thought that this little girl was a loli grandma?

'Loli grandma, huh?'

Somehow Haru felt conflicted at that moment.

---

Inside the building of the Thousand Eyes, everyone gathered together with Shiroyasha as the host of the meeting.

"Hello there. I am a senior official here at Thousand Eyes. My name is Shiroyasha. Our headquarters is located in the 4-digit gate number #3345. I know Kuro Usagi a bit and I have been helping her out and then. As you can see, I'm a very laid-back and beautiful girl." Shiroyasha then looked at Haru and said, "So why don't you take off your mask and introduce yourself, boy?"

Haru rubbed his face and said, "There is a deep burn on my face. My face is ugly, it's better that you don't know about it."

"......." Asagi was dumbfounded by Haru's words, but she didn't say anything since she also knew how handsome this guy was and it was better to keep silent about it.

However, Kuro Usagi, Shiroyuki, Jin, Izayoi, Asuka, and Yuu were dumbfounded by Haru's words and became quite curious about Haru's face more. However, more than that, they were wondering who could give a burn to someone as powerful as Haru?

"Really? I don't believe it," Shiroyasha said without hesitation.

"Rather than talking about this, can I ask what is the gate?" Haru asked.

Shiroyasha kept staring at Haru, but Kuro Usagi's tried to change the topic of the conversation by explaining the answer that Haru wanted to ask. "Gate is one of the openings that can be found in the walls that divide the different layers of the Little Garden. The smaller the number the closer to the center and the stronger you are, the closer you live to the center. For example, our community is closest to the outer edge, a 7-digit gate number."

"Also, any 4-digit or lower gate number, like where I am, is part of the Upper Levels." Shiroyasha looked at Shiroyuki then looked at Haru. "You know, I'm the one who gave the divinity to Shiroyuki. As her master, why don't you take off your mask for me?"

"What does that have to do with me?" Haru asked.

However, Asuka was interested in Shiroyasha's words and asked, "So you're stronger than Shiroyuki?"

"Of course! I'm the Floor Master of the East Side. There are no other four-or-lower-digit communities that come close to our power on the East Side. I'm the strongest host there is," Shiroyasha said proudly.

However, Izayoi, Asuka, and Yuu stood up one after another.

"The stronger, eh?"

"Interesting, I'd like to face you."

"......" Yuu kept staring at Haru.

Asagi looked at Izayoi, Asuka, and Yuu weirdly as she was sitting next to Haru quietly and didn't say much.

"W - Wait, you guys...!" Kuro Usagi was startled.

"It's fine, Kuro Usagi." Waving her fan, Shiroyasha's expression was relaxed, and said, "I have been lacking in playmates." She then looked at Haru and asked, "How about you? Are you interested in playing with me too?"

"I don't really have a hobby to play with a little girl."

"Oh? That's a shame..." Shiroyasha sighed. "If I get my Divinity back, then my appearance will change, though."

"Well, you can go on. We can become an audience, right, Asagi?" Haru said.

"Um." Asagi nodded. "I'm also quite curious."

"Well, I don't mind, but let me ask you three first." Shiroyasha looked at Izayoi, Asuka, and Yuu, then asked, "Are you looking for a challenge? Or a duel?" She then took out a light blue card from the sleeve of her kimono and a blue light enveloped the room from the ground before the scene around them changed.

The previous room had disappeared and what appeared before them was an ice-covered landmass with a tall mountain, a moon, a jungle, and many other things.

"This is...?" They were dumbfounded by the scene before them.

"There's nothing to be afraid of. This is one of my game boards," Shiroyasha said with a smile.

"All of this is just a game board?!" Asuka was dumbfounded.

"I'm a Demon Lord of the White Night, the spirit of the sun and white night, Shiroyasha.. I am one of the many Demon Lords in the Little Garden," Shiroyasha said with a bright smile, showing a group of ignorant children about the reality of this world.
