Seemingly having confirmed some answer, Reines breathed a sigh of relief, and her usual smile returned to her face.

"Anyway, where is Grey now?"

"She's in Sakura's room, and Sakura is getting her some clothes to wear."

"I see."

Upon hearing this, Luo Wei nodded in relief.

"Then let's invite Sakura and Grey to a restaurant for dinner. By the way, did Reines brush her teeth and wash her face?" Rowe gently pinched his little nose.

"Don't worry, elder brother, I've already finished washing up."

Reines gave an elegant smile.

"Alright, in that case, Reines can go find Sakura and Gray to play with first. I'll go arrange breakfast now. By the way, Reines, would you like Western food or Chinese food for breakfast?"

Where is my elder brother?

"As for me... I'll have Chinese food, since you know what food is like in London."

"Then I'll listen to my brother."

"Ok."

About thirty minutes later—

After tidying himself up and washing up, Luo Wei leisurely walked out of his bathroom and down to the dining area. He glanced at the breakfast the butler had prepared for them, then at the time, and then—

"Sakura, Reines, and Gray are coming down for dinner!!"

"Here we go!"

A few minutes later, Sakura, wearing the purple dress Sora had bought for her, came running down the street in a cheerful mood after hearing the sound.

Reines, following behind, kept reminding her, "Sakura, be careful when you walk, don't bump your knees, and you should also pay attention to your manners~"

Her expression was one of concern and motherly love, which made Sakura feel quite uncomfortable.

As for Grey...

At this moment, however, she had completely disappeared.

This surprised Luo Wei, who thoughtfully called out twice towards the upstairs.

"Grey, come down for dinner."

As the sound traveled, there was movement upstairs.

Suddenly, a gray ahoge (cowlick) peeked out from the wall, followed by soft footsteps. Grey, dressed in a red gothic outfit that was clearly out of character, tiptoed out.

Her reserved yet adorable demeanor, coupled with the dress that contrasted sharply with Grey's hair color, made even Rowe burst out laughing. This made Grey even more shy, and she hurriedly tried to hide back in her room.

However, she was pushed out by the maid behind her with a smile.

“Miss Grey, this outfit is actually very beautiful on you, like a delicate doll. Please don’t be shy.”

"And the young master is waiting for you down below, so hurry down."

"That's what the maid said gently."

"Eh...but?"

Grey still felt something was off, but at Rowe's call from below, she finally mustered the courage to go up the stairs. Reines and Rowe had been waiting there for quite some time.

Upon seeing this lovely older sister come down, Sakura happily greeted Gray.

"Grey, this outfit was chosen for you by Reines... Mom, anyway, Reines helped you choose it. Actually, it looks great on you, so please don't be shy."

Sakura's expression turned strange at the mention of Reines, and she had no idea how to address her.

When Reines thought about her sister, her expression clearly changed.

When he tried to say "Mom," Luo Wei shook his head frantically.

For a moment, she was a little dizzy and completely confused about the situation.

"...Really, really?"

Grey was still somewhat incredulous until Rowe praised her.

"Don't worry, it's really beautiful."

"Thanks……"

Grey finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The colors were so vibrant, and she was wearing such strange clothes—it was the first time in her life she had ever worn anything like that. Regardless, she felt incredibly awkward.

"...So, would you like coffee or milk?"

After Grey sat down, Loewy didn't forget to ask her a question.

"Milk, please... As for coffee, Master Belsac used to make it for me, but it tasted really strange..."

"Ok."

Lovi picked up the milk in front of him and handed it to Grey, while also making sure to give Reines and Sakura each a cup.

"They're all at an age where they're growing, so let's all have some."

The main reason is that there is no soy milk, so we can only use milk with fried dough sticks and steamed buns.

Although it doesn't taste quite authentic, it's still much better than the mashed potatoes served at breakfast in England.

"Thank you, Brother Luo Wei!"

"Thank you, elder brother."

"Thank you, Master."

Seeing the three little girls making different sounds at the same time, Luo Wei smiled slightly. Then, as Sakura followed the dining etiquette taught to her by Tokiomi Tohsaka at home, she put her hands together and said, "I'm going to start eating."

"Well, then I'll start eating too."

Grey followed suit, while Reines was somewhat helpless.

'That's not how dining etiquette is in Britain...'

But seeing that Sakura and Grey were both happy, she didn't correct them.

Luo Wei simply smiled at this, not caring about such formalities.

Then, the breakfast proceeded smoothly amidst everyone's laughter.

The old butler, who had been standing by, was deeply moved by the scene, and his eyes even began to well up with tears.

The young master I watched grow up has indeed changed. Since the patriarch died, he has become much more cheerful than before...

Under his leadership, the Crowley family not only avoided being swallowed up by other families, but also became more organized and prosperous than before.

Even Lord Kenneth of the Minerals Department paid special attention to him.

When he went to deliver the letter today, the other party sent someone to receive him with special formality and personally inquired about Rowe's current situation. They also subtly revealed to him that Miss Reines was the princess of El-Melloi and the future young master's fiancée, hoping that he could take good care of her.

He was naturally flattered and readily agreed. At Kenneth's request, he accepted a formal dress as a gift. Although he intended to hand it over to the young master upon his return, Rowe felt both amused and exasperated and did not accept what was rightfully his.

In short...

The thought of his young master marrying the eldest daughter of the El-Melloi family and leading the Crowley family back to its former glory filled him with genuine joy, as a servant who had served the family for fifty years. He believed that the spirits of the master and mistress in heaven would surely be comforted...

So, without Luo Wei's knowledge, the old butler behind him added a lot of drama to his own story, completely immersed in self-pity.

"Speaking of which, what are Reines and Sakura's plans lately?"

"Hmm... nothing much, just attending a tea party and going shopping with Aunt Sora, that's all. Is there something you need, brother?"

The understanding Reines asked with a smile.

“It’s nothing, I just wanted you to take Grey out for a stroll around London. She comes from the countryside and isn’t familiar with big cities. I’ve been having some trouble lately, so I can’t take her around myself. While the butler could arrange it, I think it would be more suitable for you, people her age, to do it.” Hearing this, Lowe thought for a moment, then asked Reines, “Is that alright?”

The timing was truly unfortunate. He had finally managed to persuade Grey to come to London, and he himself had just returned home, ready to rest for a couple of days before focusing on preparing for his Grand Order exams, when, by sheer coincidence, Aozaki Touko showed up at his door. Furthermore, she brought him a problem that he had to solve. So, no matter how much he felt sorry for Grey, he could only leave her at home for now and make it up to her when he returned.

But upon closer examination, it seems things don't need to be that complicated.

Even though I'm not home alone, I still have Reines and Sakura, right?

Leaving Grey alone at home would undoubtedly make her lonely, and given her sweet and gentle nature, she would naturally feel scared too. However, having peers around would be much better. Therefore, he planned to have Renée take Grey and Sakura out for a stroll, and then take them out to play together when Rowe returned.

Anyway, this matter shouldn't be too troublesome; it should be resolved in a couple of days.

As for this request, Reines certainly wouldn't refuse, and although Grey felt a little disappointed, she didn't think it was a big deal.

After all, Grey is a kind and understanding girl, while Reines is still striving to become Sakura's mother. In her view, helping Lovi with his problems is her duty. Besides, trouble doesn't just come knocking when you're bored, so Reines completely understands Lovi's thoughts and readily agrees to take Lovi and Sakura to the tea party hosted by the Animusfia family's little princess, Olga Marie Asmirette Animusfia, the next day. It'll be a good opportunity for everyone to get to know each other.

Luo Wei was also very happy about this, since no one would be unhappy with this arrangement.

"Thank you, Reines. I'll bring you some gifts when I return."

Seeing that Reines agreed, Rowe breathed a sigh of relief. Then he thought about where he was going and felt that he could buy some suitable souvenirs for the three little ones, so as to pave the way for their future.

After some casual conversation, their first breakfast together came to an end. Rowe gestured to the butler and maid to clear the table, then glanced at the time on the wall. "So, Sakura, Reines, and Gray, now that you've finished breakfast and I have some free time today, how about we learn some basic magic from each other?"

“Okay.” Sakura nodded.

"Really?" Reines was overjoyed. "Thank you so much, brother."

"Okay, okay..."

As for Grey, she nodded weakly.

She knew this was probably similar to the homework assigned by Master Belsac.

"Then come with me."

Then, Rowe led the three children into the study, where they studied firsthand materials that Rowe had compiled in his dreams with Mary during that time. He named it—

"On the Differences Between General and Individual Basic Sciences Before the End of the Age of Gods and Modern Basic Sciences—A Discussion by Crowley and Meryl"

Although the name is long and low-class, it has the feel of a modern trash magazine.

However, the contents here are genuine. If word gets out, it will definitely cause the entire Basic Science Department and the two monarchs of the Individual Basic Science Department to emit a sharp, penguin-like screech.

Therefore, Sakura, who had some basic knowledge of magic, listened with great interest, while Gray, who didn't know much about it, looked puzzled, and Reines, while showing a strange expression, quickly took notes in her notebook.

With her excellent magical cultivation, she always felt that Luo Wei was talking about something extraordinary.

As time passed second by second.
