It is The Winter Month, the temperature should be chilly, yet the weather in Pearl is much warmer than in Sapphire. It is still comfortable for residents to take a leisurely walk to enjoy their rest even in the evening, unlike in Sapphire where the winter evenings have become too cold and almost no one wants to leave their houses just to enjoy the night. Many people go outside to enjoy the beauty of this public park, especially young people.

Among them, are Daphne and Stairmount.

Yes, just the two of them. After helping to find a residence with an inexpensive budget but providing comfortable facilities, James leaves them while Mrs. Yalle chooses to stay in the inn they just rent to do cleanings. But actually, she is giving that code to Daphne.

"Do you remember what we talked about earlier? Just do as per the instruction I give you, okay? And everything will run smoothly."

Daphne gets red-faced. Her mother is correct. She is a quiet and reserved girl, and so far she is only used to handle with the thing she likes, that is, medical science. She is inexperienced with other things apart from that. Moreover, to express her love for the opposite sex first. It's actually me who has to perform like a Jupiterian right now whereas I am a real Neptunian girl! How embarrassing!...

On the other hand, Stairmount himself is busy with his own thoughts. James has left them a long time ago after helping take care of Daphne and her mother's new house, but his disturbing words don't go away like his physical body does.

"...You just need to break up with that Plutonian girl, and go back to your original life..."

"I like the weather at Pearl. It's not very cold in winter." Daphne starts the conversation. But she should give praise to herself. It is she who first invites Stairmount to take a walk in the park, and this time, it is Stairmount who follows her. So the roles they get used to play now turn opposite. Well, hopefully, this can be a good start. "It's perfect for enjoying the night. I could never feel so relieved to enjoy winter nights when I was still in Sapphire."

In response to Daphne's words, Stairmount turns his head. "That's great, you like it," He replies, curving a little smile.

Daphne is now staring deeply into Stairmount's indigo color eyes. Letting the young man appear flabbergasted. Slowly, a blush begins to fill his handsome face.

Stairmount has to admit, this is the part that always makes him captivated by Daphne's charm. The look in Daphne's eyes, there is something deep and far bottomless behind those tiger-orange eyes. Something that has a magical power to keep him sucked and entangled in the girl's charm. The magical attraction makes him unwilling to blink, even only for a very short time, as it might destroy all the magical charms that have captivated him.

But as Mrs. Yalle said, Stairmount is the type of very reserved guy. Although they speak the Jupiterian language in their daily life, Stairmount's parents strongly maintain the traditions of the Saturnian. Being aware of the need for self-control, boundaries, and limits, and also being serious and respectful. Honoring the etiquettes, upholding courtesy and ancient norms, and obeying customs passed down from generation to generation. They are supposed to be polite and respectful in treating others, like the rules said in that ancient book; Don't do to others what you don't want others to do to you. Even more, they live in the Obsidian Settlement Area, where most of the residents have the same thoughts as Stairmount's parents' - even though they have become citizens of Jupiter, their ancestral culture and customs must still be preserved. This culture, more or less shapes the character of Stairmount. So, even though he always said that he is a Jupiterian, his way of thinking is unconsciously not the same as Jupiterian's actual thought. He is indeed much more open than the native Lismesans who are more reserved, but still, the reserved mindset attaches to him since his birth influences his way of thinking, consciously or unconsciously. And this time, it is the same.

Especially when he is going to cut ties with Daphne. How can he have the heart to cradle this innocent girl's heart but then break it, just for his ego?

How can he be so cruel to do it?
