[ Jinwoo PoV ]

Looking at the kid who was holding me with her full strength while crying, I couldn't help but be confused about what to do now

I understand that she must scared from yesterday's events and I need to somehow comfort her 

Looking at Tiamat who is looking at this kid without any soft looks on her face and seeing this makes me wonder whether she even knows the meaning of the 'sympathy' word

Well I am not surprised about this especially considering her species, so in the end I think it's better to let this kid cry all she wants until she finally calms down

Meanwhile, I started to pat her in a very gentle manner in order to help her calm down but the more patted her, the more she cried as her grip on me became more tighter 

And after a few minutes of unless tears, she finally stopped crying but she messed up my clothes with her tears 

"I'm gonna take you back home, alright?" I said this in a soft tone in order to make her know that we are not dangerous people unlike those, so she is safe with us here

To my words, this kid just nodded her head slowly after getting separated from my body and even though she was not crying like before but her eyes still had tears inside 

"Want to eat something delicious?" I asked this since I thought this kid must be very hungry considering how long this girl was unconscious as well and I don't think those devils give her anything to eat either 

That's why I thought this kid must be starving from now, since by now any human must be so starving that humans are not even able to speak well 

And even though this kid might not be human but she still is a kid and I also know that she is hungry at this moment meaning that her body needs nutrition, especially at this time of her life otherwise she might not be able to grow healthy

Also, the fact that this might help her to trust us more since to her we still are strangers like those scums and that's why this might help her to get open with us

After hearing my question, Girl shook her head quickly as she told me that she was not hungry making me wonder if she was really not hungry or if she was just afraid to eat our food because she still didn't trust us

I am sure she should be hungry by now since according to Kuroka Youkai's appetite is very similar to humans and not only that but I also can sense her body is weaker than last night and it's constantly getting weaker which is probably due to lack of nutrition

*Growl~*

When I was wondering what to do since I couldn't force her to eat while thinking I suddenly heard the sound from the 'Kunou' stomach catching me off guard 

As I looked back at her, I saw 'know' holding her stomach with a pure red face like she was really embarrassed about what just happened

I couldn't help but smile at this sight because now I understand that rather than being insecure, she is very embarrassed to eat

"Come, let's eat something" I said in a soft tone as I stretched out my hand slowly in front of her and then waited for her to respond

She kept her head down like she was trying her best to hide her pure red face, even her Fox ears were down but she slowly also stretched her arm and finally grabbed my hand 

I couldn't help but be amused at her current appearance but I didn't dare to laugh because I was sure it would only make the kid more embarrassed than she already was 

After grabbing her hand, I helped her to get down from the bed since she is just a kid around 4 or 5 years old, so the height between bed and floor is too high

Not to mention her body is currently weak which is why she needed someone to help her get down from the bed otherwise she might fall and injure herself

Following my lead, jumped down from the bed after landing she little imbalance maybe it was due to not moving her body for quite a while

I supported her body in order to prevent her from falling on the floor, after getting balance again, I slowly started to guide her towards the door

she walked with me by using her own small feet as I moved very slowly in order to match her walking pace 

while moving I checked Kunou's body and I noticed that all the bruises she had on her body already healed up

Even though the bruises were very light but still got completely healed just in one night leaving behind no scars or even marks at all, makes me realise that this kid's recovery speed is rather impressive

Meanwhile, Tiamat who was silent for whole time started to follow us behind without speaking a word 

We got out and moved towards the living room as I saw Aria sitting on the couch while holding the kuroka who was in her cat form in her arms tightly

After seeing us, Aria peaked towards us or to be more precise at 'Kunou' with caution as well as also curiosity in her eyes but at least she didn't hide herself anywhere which itself is an improvement

Even though she is still not good around Strangers but maybe due to the fact that 'Kunou' is a lot smaller than herself which makes her less afrathanhen previous times

Or maybe now Aria started to overcome her fear of strangers which is great and if remains like this then that day is not far away when she will successfully overcome her fear
