We left Dius and the others and we returned home while it was still daylight.
　I was worried about Freesia, but Sisha and Luna were there, so I didn't have to worry... or so I believed.
　What I saw as soon as I transitioned to my home with the beacon was a desolate room with chairs and desks overturned and things scattered here and there.
　And then there was a young blonde girl lying face down on the floor....
　Beside her, Moffitt was poo-pooing and looking worried.

''Hey, what's going on here........''

It's as devastating as if a storm had come through...

Luna, are you okay?

　He was speechless at the sight of too much, but he quickly picked up Luna, who had collapsed, in his arms.

''Heh, Heihachi you're finally back........''

Oh, yeah and how did that happen?

"It's Freesia, it's all his fault.... I don't like it........let me sleep........gulp....

You fell asleep....

　With a gulp in her mouth, Luna is still unconscious and breathing in her sleep.
　It looks like this roughness is Freesia's fault.............What in the world could have happened to her?

''What's wrong with Sisha for leaving Luna alone?

Yes, it is..... Where is this room that is in disrepair...?

　It's true that Luna is down, but it's strange that Sisha isn't there.
　If that guy saw this figure, he would definitely be in a big hurry to take care of her.
　And Freesia isn't here either. Where the hell did those guys go?
　

''Hahaha, it's over here!

I said, "Wait up!　I'm definitely going to bump you off!

　Freesia, laughing and running happily, and Sisha, chasing after her with a rope in hand and a demon form, jumped out at me.
　What are these guys doing........

''Ah, Nol-chan!　You're welcome back!

Oh, I'm home.

　When Freesia noticed our presence, she hugged Noor as fast as she could.
　Sisha, who had been chasing around, also seemed to have noticed, and when she stopped, she put her hands on her knees and breathed painfully.

''Haha........Yo, you're finally home.......''

Oh, oh. You look pretty tired.

'I've been chasing Miss Freesia around since yesterday...'

Why are you doing that?

The thing is...

　Sisgah started talking about what happened while we were away.
　She said that the first three days after we left were fine, but around the fourth day, Freesia suddenly started begging to go outside.
　Still, it seems that Sisha and Luna were playing with her to keep her distracted.
　However, it seems that Freesia is more troublesome than Sisha and the others had expected, and once she took them on, she began to follow them around.
　When the two of them tried to sleep in the middle of the day, Freesia began to interfere by messing with them, and this seemed to last all day long.
　Eventually, Luna blindsided and chased her around, and Sisha joined in to catch Freesia.
　But even the two of them couldn't catch her, and when they gave up and tried to ignore her, the interference started again, and halfway through the second day, Luna collapsed from exhaustion.

　It seems that Sisha, enraged by this, began to seriously pursue her and wrestled with Freesia, who had escaped to Moffoot's hut.
　He's been doing that until now, and he's finally done with it when we got back.

'So that's the devastation in this living room........ I mean, how did I manage to get away from you guys in this small house?

'I really tried to catch him, but he avoided me just in time. I let my guard down and caught him off guard several times, but he avoided every single one of them...

'I had a great time chasing after Luna and Sisha!

'You didn't learn your lesson after you were bitten and treated badly...'

　Even though Sisha and Luna are so exhausted, Freesia still seems to have a lot of energy.
　Even if it's not a fight, this guy is a monster to be chased around by these two and stay safe.......
　But I'm not impressed that he kept messing with me like he was harassing me just because I couldn't go outside.
　I'm sorry that I didn't solve the problem and left the house, but I'll just say it with a bang.
　What a thought, but........Noor started scolding Freesia first.

''Freesia, you shouldn't cause trouble for Sisha and the others,''

'Well, because ... I was bored just being in the house all the time.

I understand the frustration of not being able to go out, but there is a limit. I apologize to Sisqa and Luna.

'Ugh I'm sorry...'

　Freesia bowed her head to Sisha as she hunkered down.
　It seems like he listens to what Noll says.......because he's my kind of guy?

'No, no I was even thinking of tying her up and locking her in her room, but I hope you don't mind.

You're letting your true feelings out....

Maybe it's a good thing we got away with it...

　So they were chasing him with a rope....
　If I had been caught, I must have been wrapped up in circles or tied to a chair and left on a deserted course.

''I'm tired, so I'll leave the rest to Okura-san and the others.......''

'Oh, ah ... take a good rest.

'I don't think I've ever seen Sisha so wrecked before.

　Sisha returned to her room with a wobbly gait.
　
　I also carried Luna in my arms into my room and laid her down on the bed.
　Then, as before, she crept into the quilt and disappeared.
　Even if she's fainting, she's still going to dive properly.......
　Returning to the living room, I got to thinking about Freesia's outing, which was the source of this commotion.

I'm not going to leave it as is, so we need to think about how to get Freesia out of the house.

'Oh, really!　Wow!

'You must have such a strong desire to get out of the house to be this happy.

'I may have underestimated you a bit...'

　I'm sure part of me was enjoying it, but my messing around with Sisha and the others must include my frustration at not being able to go out.
　I don't feel comfortable leaving them in charge of the house at this point, so this needs to be dealt with as soon as possible.

So, in order to make it possible to go outside, we have to do something about the ears, but.......what do we do?

'If it's so simple, wouldn't it be best to cover it up with something?

"Should I put something on...

　If you're going to wear it, is it still a hat or something?　But it's not going to be easy to cover your ears with a normal hat.
　I think there was one that covered both sides of my face............................for protection against the cold?
　However, in Freesia's case, I still have a feeling that I could move and take it........
　As I was thinking about this, Noll suddenly came into view.
　Oh, it might be possible.

"What's wrong?

Helm or something just right?

　When I saw the helmet that Noor was wearing, it occurred to me that I could hide it.
　He quickly took out the helmet from Gacha and handed it to Freesia.
　She received it and furrowed her eyebrows in disgust as she gazed at the helmet with both hands.

''Yeah ... are you going to wear this?''

Brother don't you think about a hat or a hood if you're normally going to wear it to hide it?

'No, in Freesia's case, that could miss. On that note, Helm would rarely come off, so it's a relief, right?

It sounds more convincing when you put it that way, but...

　Estelle put her hand on my cheek and gave me a troubled look, but when I explained it to her, both Noor and I seemed to agree.
　Helm can cover your entire face and you don't have to worry about it coming off.
　What could be in such good condition to cover your ears as this?

　I tried to prompt Freesia to quickly put it on but she looked at Helm and tilted her head.

''Heihachi, I can't wear this, you know. It's going to hit my ears.''

'Hee hee hee, it's a gacha-produced piece of equipment, so it should transform on its own.

Oh, really?

'Come to think of it, Esther and the others didn't know.

　While I was in the middle of selecting gems with Sisha, I had discovered that the equipment produced by Gacha would change in size to the size of the part to be worn.
　You were so wrapped up in selecting gems that you didn't tell the Nolls about it.
　When I explained it to them, they were surprised, but they understood.
　As it is, the ears are in the way and the helmet can't be worn, but if it's a gacha-produced equipment, it should be able to be transformed and worn.

'Then we'll wear it!　Hmmm........hmm?

　Freesia immediately tried the helmet on, but the helmet's shape remained the same, hitting the ears.

There is no sign of deformation at all.

That's funny...

Maybe it doesn't change shape too much.

　After that, I had them leave it intact for a bit, but Helm didn't seem to transform at all.
　Don't tell me that the size changes, but the shape itself doesn't transform?
　If we were to put in Freesia's long ears, it would change the shape quite a bit........

''Hmm, I guess I'll just have to put a hat or a hood on it. Can't you just use Estelle's magic to disguise your appearance?

'I suppose I could do it temporarily, but not for a long time. Besides, getting away from me will take away the effect.

'Then we'll have to physically hide it........ Let's just go to town and find them.

　I've been looking for other good items from the gacha, but I don't have anything that I can use.
　I'm not sure if Estelle's magic is going to work either, so I'm going to go to the grocery store now to find some.
　If I were to cover my ears, I'd probably use a hat, a hood, or ear pads.　Hope you have a good one....
　I headed out of the house to go buy something. But before I could, Noll started to shout out.

'Oh, I might just have a good one!

Really!

Wait a minute!

　With that, Noll walks into his room.
　Good stuff...?　What in the world is there to see?
　Freesia is staring at the Nole room with her eyes shining, as if she is expecting something.
　Esther and I also look at each other and wait for Noor's return, tilting our heads to see what the hell is going on.
　In the midst of all this attention, the door finally opens and Noor returns with a white cloth in his hand.

''Ja-ja-ja, it is!

　When Nol came to Freesia's front, she unfolded the cloth with confidence.
　It wasn't a nondescript hood.......it was a single piece of cloth that went down to below the waist, with a cute bunny-ear-like object attached to the part it covered.

''Oh!　It's pretty!

'Oh my God, you're really pretty. Where did you get it from?

　Freesia excitedly received the hood from Noor.
　
　When Estelle heard about it, Noor laughed as she put her hands on her hips and stretched her chest.

''Mufufu, I made this myself!

'What, Noll sewed it up?'

'Yes, sir!　It's a hood that incorporates the cuteness of Moffoot!

　What a guy........I didn't know he had the sewing skills to not only cook, but to make this stuff himself.......
　As expected of a self-proclaimed maiden........
　When I was honestly impressed, Freesia stopped rejoicing as soon as she heard that I had made it and her expression turned serious.

''Noor-chan, even though you made it all the way through, are you sure you want to take it?

It's fine. If Freesia will use it, I'm happy to do so. I can make it again if I want to, so you don't have to worry about it.

No, Noll you're welcome!

　Freesia started to rejoice as she hugged Noor again.
　
　Freesia quickly put on the hood she was given as soon as she could.

''What do you think?''

It looks good on you. But if you don't do it, the hood is about to come off, isn't it? Would you like me to add a neck tie later?

'And I think I can still see your ears. Let's just undo your hair and hide it anyway.

　Noor and Esther are flipping around and playing with the hooded Freesia.
　The clasp is definitely a must, since it looks like she's just wearing it over her top right now.
　As Estelle happily played with her hair, what had been a side-tail had been turned into two knots.
　She pulled it out of the sides of her hood, and it was well hidden by her ears.

　Yeah, I'm glad I've found a way to deal with it successfully.
　For me, this hood looks too conspicuous, but he seems to like it, so I guess it's okay....
　If it attracts too much attention, I'll have Nole make another food for him.
　Or rather.

'Nole, if you have it, you should have served that the other day...'

Heh, I didn't think of hiding it with a hood, so I didn't think it would be useful.

　Noll laughed and rubbed her head as she answered that.
　Even though she has combat skills and a tremendous amount of girl power, she has this kind of missing part.......
