Chapter Four: The Demon Lord Gets Into the Festive Spirit

The lingering warmth of the days of early autumn was long gone, replaced by chilly winds and biting cold. The mornings and nights were especially cold, but it was brisk even during the daytime. The sun took less time to complete its daily march across the sky, which meant the girls had less time to play outside as well.

One day, however, around noontime, the weather was exceptionally pleasant at the Scarlett house. It was a perfect day for the girls to enjoy outside, yet all of them were cooped up in the dining room, drinking warm milk.

“It’s too cold, m’kay?”

Bram hated cold weather. She’d lived her life in a country where it was warm all year round, so she wasn’t used to the chilly winds of Garaat. She refused to get out of bed in the mornings, clinging to Anima for warmth, and would always challenge him to see who could stay in the bath longer because she never wanted to get out.

It must have been hard for her to deal with the rapidly dropping temperature. Even that day’s relatively gentle weather was too extreme for her, so she’d opted to stay inside and sip on warm milk. Anima didn’t mind it at all, of course, nor did the girls. They didn’t want to force her to go outside when she was cold.

“I’m done with my milk... I want one more, m’kay?”

“You’ll get a stomachache if you do that. Here, I’ll hold your hands and warm you up, okay?”

“You’re an angel, Myuke. Your hands are really warm, m’kay?”

“Me too! I warm too!”

“Mm-hmm, yours are too, Marie, m’kay?”

Myuke and Marie merrily snuggled up to Bram, happy that they got to help her. It didn’t matter if they were inside or outside, the girls were sure to make their own fun.

Anima watched over them with a mellow smile. He didn’t mind spending the whole day inside, but he also wanted to help Bram in any way he could. She was already wearing her warm, heavy winter clothes, but that was clearly not enough to keep out the cold. Just as he thought that there had to be something else he could do, his vision caught on an interesting part of the room.

“Can we use the fireplace?”

“Totally, m’kay?!”

Bram jumped on the idea. Lighting the fireplace would definitely warm the room up enough to stop Bram from shivering.

“Whassa ‘fyepace’?”

“That.”

Myuke pointed at the brick fireplace, which was covered with soot on the inside. Given that Luina always made sure that everything in the house was sparkling clean, it was unimaginable she had just ignored it. The bricks were likely just permanently dirty.

Luckily, the soot didn’t render it useless; it was still fully functional. If anything, it proved that a fire could indeed be lit in there. Even so, judging from the fact that Marie wasn’t familiar with it, they probably hadn’t used it in a good while.

“Let’s set it up and fry some potatoes!”

“Nummy!”

“Oh, that’s making
