The Endless System
Ch 54 — Past Eriana & Tohrei(3)
“Mrs Elicia, young master has returned.” Ersila lowered her body, saluting the person.
“Hm? So you've come back?” The man responded. His figure is beginning to show. His snow-white hair was free. Her lentic eyelashes are also her irises are as white as her hair.
She is the mother of Tohrei, Elicia Von Evelia. He spoke calmly and casually.
“Ya, I have brought home young master.” Ersila raised her body again.
Elicia rolled her eyes at her son, she felt something strange. “This is weird, where is the ring on your finger, Rei? It must be related to the scar on your back.”
Tohrei was surprised, but he tried his best to hide his hands and the scars on his back.
“A...what does mother mean? Isn't it obvious that I'm okay?” Tohrei said it while sweating coldly.
“Do not try to hide it.” Elicia put down her speed and stood up from her chair then walked towards Tohrei. He then turned Tohrei over to prove the scar.
And it turns out that the wound does exist, three lines tore off Tohrei's back and shirt. But the wound has begun to heal by itself and leaves only a reddish mark that will hurt if touched. Elicia sighed and nagged Tohrei.
“Have Mom told you how many times to be careful! Auntie Ersila is old! He can't keep looking after you, you know? If it wasn't for that ring you would have finished Rei! Do you know how worried mom was when you just left?!” He scolded Tohrei all-out.
“Ukh..., I understand Mother, there is no need to speak too loudly.”
“No need to be hard? This is necessary for you to be deterred! Geez, can you be more careful? Your body is weak.” Tohrei gave up, he in the end just fell silent.
Meanwhile Eriana just silently watched it. He asked Ersila. “What is Rei always getting romanced like this?”
“Yes, he always does things he shouldn't with his weak body. The body of the young master is nothing more than the body of an ordinary person, without special things.” Ersila answered Eriana's question.
“Nya, have a Mother who pays attention to her child.” Eriana mutters.
“Ah I almost forgot to ask, who are you little girl?” Elicia turned her eyes to Eriana.
“I'm Eriana, I was saved by Rei. Greetings to Rei.”'s mother
“You are a charming girl. Rescued? What happened.?” Elicia admitted how dazzling Eriana's face was.
“Let me describe madam.” Erick offered to explain.

“So so, this time I will forgive you Rei because you have saved someone.” Elicia was happy that Tohrei saved someone.
“So, can Eri stay here?” Tohrei asked his mother. It was also explained that Eriana did not have a place to live at this time.
“Of course, Eriana can stay here.”
Tohrei and Eriana looked at each other with delighted expressions. “You can stay here Eri!”
“Um!” They hold hands with each other.
“But Rei, keep Eriana.”
“Sure!” Without her mother telling her, she would have protected Eriana.

Then a few weeks passed unnoticed. Tohrei and Eriana became more and more familiar. They always play together and even shower together. That's normal because they're still small.
With Eriana long enough to make him realize that he was quite ignorant. While playing hide-and-seek, Eriana finds him and tickles him and makes him tickle. Eriana's physique also turned out to be stronger than Tohrei's.
Eriana found out that before her there were only three people living in this residence, namely Tohrei, Tohrei's mother, and Ersila. It made this residence look quiet.
Once, while they were playing in the flower garden belonging to the Tohrei family. They chatter.
“Eri, do you not want to return to your residence?” Tohrei said as he squatted down and watched the flowers in one of the gardens.
“For what? I'm not happy there, I'd rather be here, with you guys.” Eriana answered Tohrei's question. He was currently sitting on a long bench not far from Tohrei.
“Absolutely you don't miss them? The people you know there? They must miss you too.” Tohrei turned his head towards Eriana.
Eriana was just speechless, Tohrei's words were true. He just stared at his right and left legs which were swung in turns.
