The boy is looking for something inside the bag. After a few minutes, he realized something.
George : We're run out of bottles.
Kuragari : That's bad.
George : I'm not expecting that kind of reply, you know.
Kuragari : I know. I just felt like this role was better for me.
George : What are you talking about.
Kuragari : I've been acting like your guardian. I know I'm not. Just saying that.
George : ....
Kuragari : Also a mentor or whatever it was, I feel like I don't need to do it anymore unless the situation was cring- I mean critical.
George : Huh?
Kuragari : I know that you can handle most kinds of situations by yourself and you've grown up a lot since I arrived in this empty space.
George : Are you saying I don't have a brain?
Kuragari : Don't worry. Even if you actually don't have a brain, you're better than anyone else at your age.
George : Did I become your punchline?
Kuragari : Yea. Anyway, what I'm saying is.... I won't interfere anymore and stay like I'm your mind's dark side.
George : I've never thought that my mind has the boomer side.
Kuragari : When did you start using those words?
George : It's your fault.
Kuragari : Whatever... I won't interfere anymore and stay like I'm your mind's dark side unless....
George : Unless what?
Kuragari : My precious adorable embodiment of the purest beauty, unrivalled cutie little princess Charlotte needs me.
George : ...are you Charlotte hunter?
Kuragari : I'm Charlotte's any kind of possible enemy hunter.
George : Your replies never failed to amuse me.
Kuragari : Cause I'm a chad. Play "can you feel my heart" in the background.
George : Seems I still couldn't understand your jokes. Even after like.... five years.
Kuragari : You know, sometimes I feel extremely lonely. No one in this worl- no, No one in this reality was able to talk with me and laugh at my jokes. Back in my world, I don't have any friends in the outside world but the internet gives me a lot of friends. Now, in this reality..... you're the only one who I can show my real character to. Even though you couldn't understand anything.
George : I'm sure that the rest of humanity would be worse than I did.
Kuragari : Even if I can talk to someone by possessing your body, no one can talk with me. Really no one if I didn't change my personal.
George : I thought you're fine as long as you can see Charlotte's face?
Kuragari : Never take adults' words too seriously. You'll never know which is the truth and which is a lie. That's how you manipulate people. Adults will look at the food on the table and if it wasn't enough for everyone, they'll lie that they're not hungry or didn't like the food. Or just simply find the reason to not eat the food and go out of the room. That's how adults work.
George : So, adults are selfless?
Kuragari : No. They'll do the same if the food was poisoned.
George : .....
Kuragari : Anyway, what I want to say is... I'm really glad to see Charlotte everyday but it wasn't enough to maintain my sanity and mental health. I'm isolated and no one knows my existence except you and Oren. I don't even feel like talking anymore. I'll just sit on the couch and watch your daily life documentary. If I want to read something, I'll borrow Oren's body. You just continue whatever you're doing. You need to buy some bottles, right? Go on. You also should spend the time with your friends. They're easier to understand.
George : Are you in a rebellious phase or something?
Kuragari : It was depression. Spirits have mental issues too.
George : Are you serious about not interfering anymore?
Kuragari : Yes.
George : I see.
The boy took some money from the bag on the desk and put them into a small bag which was attached to his belt. Then, he walked outside of the room.
*Twenty Minutes Later*
The boy was walking on the street of the capital while holding a paper bag in his hand. Just then, he bumped into someone. The boy was surprised and immediately caught the person from falling. He unconsciously let the bag go and the bag fell down to the ground. The person was around his height. They're wearing long sleeves tunic and black pants. Also wearing black boots and brown hooded cloak which covers their head. The boy immediately scanned the person's whole body and was shocked.
George : (Sh*t! It's a woman!)
The boy immediately helped the person stand up awkwardly. Then, he picked up the bag on the ground. One bottle slipped out of the bag but the boy didn't notice.
??? : Umm.....
The person tried to say something. The boy noticed this and instantly replied.
George : I'm sorry. I was lost in thoughts. You didn't hurt, right?
The person nodded.
Kuragari : Then, excuse me. I have to go back before the attendance. I'm sorry and goodbye.
The boy walked out immediately and left the person behind. The person tried to call him but the boy was lost in the crowd of people. Then, the person noticed a small bottle on the ground and picked it up. They look at the bottle and are confused.
??? : Hmm....dandelion seeds?

*At The Evening*
Cecelia : Let's try fortune telling!
Everyone in the room looks at the white hair girl on the bed who just shouted out of nowhere.
Albert : Why? You want to know your future?
The boy who was sitting on the chair looked at the blue haired boy who was leaning to the cabinet
George : (The question should be when did my room become the hangout place for you all. There's no place left for me, even to lay down)
Cecelia : No, because.... I've been dreaming about weird scenes these nights.
Charlotte : What kind of dreams? Can you tell us?
The blonde hair girl who was sitting on the bed alongside of white hair girl asked her.
Cecelia : Yes, it was about George.
George : Huh?
Cecelia : You're standing too far from me and there's a big blackwater river between us.
Kuragari : BBR.
George : (What?)
Kuragari : Big Blackwater River.
George : ....
Cecelia : I tried to cross the river but it was too dark and seemed dangerous.
Kuragari : Why? Coz it was black? You think black is dangerous? Are you scared of black that much?
George : (Shut up. And where did your policy about not interfering go?)
Kuragari : I'm pretty sure that I can break my own policy. Also, this couldn't be counted as interfering. I'm just merely talking with you.
George : (...I hate adults)
Kuragari : Well, just think of this as a mood swing. I have several mental issues. If I make a list, you might choose asylum as the next stop. Oh wait.... can spirits be mentally ill? Is it because I still retain the human mind? But wait... I'm spirit right now so didn't that change my human mind to the spirit mind? Then again, did spirits have minds? If they didn't, wouldn't that make me a creature other than the spirit? Then, what species am I? Or did that just make me the superior spirit or something better version? But I never evolved. Then, what am I??? Am I becoming my own enemy?
George : (...whatever)
Wil : So, you think George was actually far away from you in reality just like in your dreams?
The yellow haired boy who was sitting on the desk looked at the white hair girl and asked.
Cecelia : Yes.
Kuragari : Women.
George : (Just....shut up)
Cecelia : Or maybe there's something that my dreams are telling but I don't know what it was. That's why I want to meet with a fortune teller and ask them the meaning of my dreams.
Oren : I think I know one fortune teller in the capital. Not too far from the academy.
George : Wasn't fortune telling expensive?
Cecelia : Actually, I haven't tried before.
Oren : I tried one or two times while travelling across nations. I think it only cost like two pieces of cheese cake.
Cecelia : That's expensive! Cheese cakes are expensive you know.
Oren : I don't like cheese cakes so.
Cecelia : You don't eat cheese cakes?
Oren : Um hmm.
Cecelia : Then, how did you know their prices?
Oren : I know the list of ingredients that are used in cheese cakes. So, I predicted the price of the whole cake by calculating the cost of the ingredients. Then, I divided the total with the number of cake slices we can get from a single cake.
Cecelia : ....are you a dumb genius?
Oren : Can you say that again?
George : (Man....this whole conversation was stupid)
The boy let out a sigh.
Wil : Don't worry about money, I'll trade you all.
White hair girl's face was brightened.
Cecelia : Oh my, that's wonderful. Thank you, William.
Yellow hair boy smiled.
Wil : Can you call me "Wil"?
Cecelia : We shouldn't waste the time anymore! Let's go everyone!
Wil : Are you ignoring me?
Oren : Right now? Wasn't that too soon?
Purple hair boy rubs his chin and asks. Blonde hair girl stood up suddenly and said.
Charlotte : There's no such thing as too soon. Especially when our friends need to know the answers.
Kuragari : Are you confessing your love, Ms.Charlotte? Did you??? Forget it. Where's the wedding rings?
Blue hair boy looks at the blonde hair girl with an unconvinced look.
Albert : (You just want to stalk after George)
Cecelia : Thank you, Charlotte. Let's go now!
White hair girl grabbed the blonde hair girl's hand and walked out of the room together.
Kuragari : Wait....what about the marriage?
Wil : Is she ignoring me?
The boy looks at the yellow hair boy and pet his shoulder. Then, he said...
George : You'll get used to this.
Wil : Huh?
