"A-Ah… W-Well I just… felt like grabbing your hand, peko…" said Pekorina while flushing so much that she was almost becoming a tomato.

"T-They are already grabbing hands?! Haah, they sure grow fast…" said Jason.
"How old is Ervas again?" asked Ismene.
"Around… a bit more than three years old now, it has been over a year since Veronica appeared in our lives, the trip towards the beach of this continent has been quite long, even while flying… I believe that traveling above the ocean towards the Demon Continent will take even longer… I hope not a whole year though," sighed Jason.
