Complication

Several days have passed since Red's visit. Ever since that day, Delcie and Rhie had found themselves looking after Valentine who has started to gain interest in magic and metallurgy.

Because of Red's performance, Valentine has been curious as to how he did it. His magic was not something she normally sees and even with her lack of knowledge in the field, she understood that it was not a conventional one.

While her curiosity itself is harmless, to Delcie and Rhie who are in-charge of her safety, this was a growing concern as she has spent a lot of time reading magic-related books for the past several days.

"Y-young miss, it's already morning."

"Wait, what!?"

When Valentine looked out the window, she was surprised at the sun rising from the horizon. Yet despite that, she did not feel tired or show signs of exhaustion at all.

In contrast to that, Delcie had bags under her eyes while trying not to pass out sitting on a stool with her armour on.

"Why didn't you sleep?"
