Little Jean leaped from one place to another at lightning speed until he arrived in the capital city of Eau Saumont.

[Okay, this is not precisely a teleport. This is more like light travel. I can travel from one place to another in light speed.]

[Pupa: Mhm, I guess so. Where do you want to go now?]

[Why do you need to ask, Pupa? Of course, into the warrr!]

Little Jean traveled to Matthew's house. He saw Matthew's mother arranged the flower in front, but she didn't seem to be happy. In fact, her face showed that she was troubled.

Little Jean then went to the Art supplies store and saw that Matthew's dad was also gloomy. 

[What happened here?]

Little Jean went to the second floor, to Matthew's room. He saw the door was shut, and there was a weird dark aura around the room. The same dark aura engulfed the rabbit and turned it into a monster when Jean touched it before. 

[So… Matthew's magic is dark? Madeline has a light/holy magic, right? Like Raphael.]

[Pupa: Yes, I guess Xu Jiansheng really turned everything about the main character into his own, including the power.]

Little Jean entered the room. He saw Matthew sitting on a chair while holding a brush. The dark aura around him was so dense and suffocating, his raven eyes turned all black, including the white part of his eyes. 

Matthew had just finished painting Little Jean on the canvas, but the painting would turn into hideous monsters whenever he called it done. No matter how many tries he did, he still turned everything into monsters. 

"ARGH!" Matthew ripped the canvas and threw it into the garbage can. Little Jean saw the piles of failed paintings that he had. 

Matthew set up a new canvas. He already forgot how many times he tried to paint Little Jean. He realized that Little Jean got kidnapped because he fainted after seeing the monster. It forced the two-guard carriages to split and caused Little Jean to have less protection and get kidnapped. 

It was like a domino effect, but the first one to cause everything was him. It was Matthew's fault that Little Jean got kidnapped. 

He had expected that Young Master Jean would never return, so he wanted to paint Young Master Jean. At least he could stare at Young Master Jean's picture since he couldn't meet the real one. 

Who would've expected even his painting to turn into monsters now?

No matter what kind of things he painted, the moment he was done, the objects inside the painting would turn into a hideous, nightmarish creatures. 

"Please, please… just let me paint Jean," Matthew begged to himself. 

[…]

[Pupa:…]

[Do you think it's wise for me to pop out and accused him of having dark magic? I heard that dark magic is forbidden in the empire because of its corrupting nature.]

[Pupa: Do you want Mathew to snap? If you did that, Matthew will definitely think that you've seen everything, and might lock you in a creepy dark room, Yandere style.]

[Oh damn, I love Yanderes!]

[But... I don't want to sacrifice the hard-earned four Fatemeters just for him… maybe in the next world, okay?]

Matthew, who took a rest after so many failed attempts, suddenly saw a ball of light popped out of thin air, and it expanded and gradually molding into the human body. 

Matthew, who realized the face of Little Jean, immediately absorbed all the dark energy around his room, so Little Jean didn't know what just happened. 

Pop!

Little Jean landed on Matthew's bed. He looked at Matthew, and his face brightened, "Matthew! It's been a while!" 

Matthew was overwhelmed by emotion. He almost lost control of his dark energy again, especially when Little Jean suddenly hugged him. 

He wanted… he wanted to trap Little Jean inside his dark energy forever because he was afraid that Little Jean wouldn't want him.

But when he saw the cheery smile of this cute fairy, Matthew realized that he was going too far.

Young Master Jean wouldn't leave him just because of that, because he was the purest hearted kid in this world. 

Matthew was just paranoid. 

Little Jean acted as if he hadn't seen the monsters that came out of the painting before, especially after Matthew absorbed all the monsters and the dark energy inside his body.

"Wuu~ Jean misses Matthew a lot. I can't go out because Big brother won't allow me…." Little Jean pouted. "That's why I developed my own teleportation spell. Now Jean can go in and out of the palace easily, NYAHAHAHA!"

He looked around and acted surprised, "Ah, where are all the paintings?!" 

Matthew stiffened immediately. He was scared that Little Jean still remembered that moment when the monster popped out in front of his face, "Young Master… you don't remember about the… rabbit?"

"Rabbit? What rabbit?" Little Jean asked. 

Matthew took a deep, relieved breath. At least it was confirmed that Little Jean didn't remember anything about that day. Maybe because it was more like a trauma, so he forgot about anything traumatizing. 

"It's nothing, Young Master…." 

Little Jean shrugged, and he hopped around Matthew's room. He saw the pile of ripped canvas on the ground, "Wu…. Matthew wasted a lot of canvas…."

"A—Ah, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to rip all of them. I… I just want to draw you, but I failed many times…."

[Oh… you want to draw me like one of your French girls? Go on, baby, I'll be your Rose~]

[Pupa: Okay, stop. You're five years old. It really hurts my ears when you said that perverted words as a literal toddler.]

"Ehhh? Painting Jean?!" Jean's eyes glimmered once he heard that. "Jean never has my own painting before! Please draw Jean!" Little Jean begged. 

"Jean wants to have my own painting!"

Little Jean excitedly sat on the table where the object of the painting was usually placed. He smiled at Matthew, "Draw me, Matthew."

Matthew was dazed for a moment because at this angle, Little Jean's head was showered by the window light from behind, giving a gentle glow to his hair.

Matthew's heart was beating fast as he held the brush again and said, "Young Master… stay where you at. I will make you a fairy in this painting."
