Marianne glanced inside the cage with wary eyes. While living in Lennox, she raised puppies, cats, rabbits, and even deer, but she had never raised a bird. A birds' appearance did not meet her aesthetic standards so much.
Apart from that, however, she felt suspicious about what the emperor said.
'Why do I need a bird that can talk well?'
Marianne doubted her own memory and then suddenly clapped her hands.
"Got it! This is a messenger bird, right?"
As if her reply was correct, Eckart felt a bit relieved.
"It's also a great species as a pet, too."
"Huh… Do I have to raise it myself?"
"The less others see it, the better for you. As she is smart, Poibe follows her master's words but she is very hostile to others."
"If that's the case, I can't help but raise her by myself."
Marianne gently touched the cage's grate with her fingertips.
