"It looks like you are wondering how I knew I am sorry, but I cannot tell you It’s a faain With a ser to her lips She leisurely walked to the front of Reutrina
"What I said earlier, please think of it as a joke"
Reutrina put up a fox-like expression on her face and said,
"I’ Master Riley"
"Princess…"
In less respectful tone, Nainiae called her and stared at her Reutrina mumbled as if it was an excuse
"As a wo Master… Please think of it like that"
To not show the look on her face, Reutrina walked past Nainiae She dusted off the snow that accumulated on Nainiae’s shoulder and walked toward inside of the mansion
"…"
Reutrina breathed out frosted mist as she walked back Nainiae just stood there and watched Reutrina Heliona, as hiding behind Nainiae, showed her self and yelled,
<Uuuuuaaaa! That wretched bitch!>
It was ringing in Nainiae’s ear Nainiae looked like she was hurting froht at her ear Nainiae started to pad Heliona’s wings to calm her down
"You held back well"
<Why did you just stand there? If you just burned her face with flame, she would have said, ‘Oh ot on your nerve!’ and rolled her tail up! Why?! Why?!>
"I am not supposed to do that"
<Why not!!>
With her aret of anger and started to glare at Nainiae
<Nainiae You are lacking in self-awareness of who you really are!>
"Self-awareness?"
<That’s right! You are lacking in awareness of the fact that you are on If you are one, then instead of ‘Ah, yes! Of course! Of course!’ you should have said ‘What? You got soo at it?’ That’s the kind of response you should have shown!>
"Ah, ah haha…"
Heliona was lecturing Nainiae as she ground her teeth Feeling aard, Nainiae avoided the gaze and fiddled with her finger
"By the way, the conversation earlier, didn’t it seem like there was h Nainiae brushed Heliona’s wings, Heliona was still perked up in anger Heliona tilted her head
"Usually, when people tells a joke, they just say ‘it was a joke’ On the other hand, the Princess said to think of it as a joke"
Nainiae thought that this could be interpreted as not a joke but take it as one She asked for Heliona’s opinion
"A too much into it?"
<No, it really could be…>
Heliona, who hated Reutrina, placed her fist at her chin and started to think hard about this
<There’s no har you this because I lived several hundred years longer than you We occasionally saw that hu than we expected>
It seemed Heliona came to a conclusion in the end She lifted her head from the fist She turned to look at Nainiae and asked,
<I don’t think we should let it be like this>
"Pardon?"
<Let’s crush that high and hty pride of that wretched bitch!>
"Bethite snow… and then what did you say?"
<The place where the black wings fly bethite snow The place where bright song surge without sound>
"… Uht about what Heliona said Not able to figure out what it was about, Sera scratched the back
"Sue is difficult"
In response to Sera’s reaction, Nainiae also looked at Heliona on her shoulder with confused look
"What’s the black wings flying bethite snow? I presus… a crow?"
"What’s the bright song without sound about? It’s strangely worded, don’t you think? A song needs to have sound"
The two deduced through the words like detectives Heliona looked at the two back and forth and described the place
<About that place where the summon spirit is… I have never met the spirit myself either, so it would be hard forfor certain is that… it is not far froh it is hard forthat the spirit that could make Nainiae reborn as an artificial summon spirit was nearby Nainiae asked,
"Not too far from here?"
<Yes Not too far fro Nainiae rolled her brain diligently She then turned her head and looked at Riley as sleeping
"Ms Heliona, you said you have ht?"
[TL: Earlier, Heliona said she had never met the spirit in person before This statement is contradictory, but the author never corrected it Conversations from here on assumes Heliona had met this spirit before]
<Yes? What about it?>
"Ms Sera, while I a Master Riley?"
"Nainiae, by any chance, you…"
Sera was blurring the end of the sentence Nainiae nodded and said,
"I think I should go meet that spirit myself"
Nainiae asked Heliona ould be the problems that she would face when she meets the spirit
"The proble Master is in this state, would it be hard to proceed?"
Nainiae looked deter with serious look on her face Heliona seemed satisfied to see the determination in Nainiae Heliona crossed her arht For acknowledging the artificial summon spirit, the master and the one ill beco hands will be enough If we are dealing with beings who do not have hands, then ill need to use a different method, but you are a human and have hands attached too>
Heliona answered what Nainiae was curious about Now, Heliona asked what she was curious about
<By the way, you said you will go ured out where?>
Heliona was asking if Nainiae figured out where ‘the place where the black wings fly bethite snow The place where bright song surge without sound’ was
"… No"
Nainiae shook her head
<Then what is it?>
"I’htly brushed away the long hair to her right She showed her right eye and asked again
"Ms Heliona You said you have ht?"
<Huh? Ah, yes…>
Heliona was facing Nainiae’s white eye Heliona had vacant look on her face and nodded
"Please think about the spirit Please think about the spirit in as ht eye as she spoke Heliona had aard look on her face, and Nainiae started to glare at her with piercing gaze
