Melina’s Task

After Melina invited Keiko to her room to share the chocolates they had received, they kept talking and sharing stories and ended up meeting Melina's two roommates when they arrived.

Keiko said that she was sharing a room with two noble girls from her country, but they treated her like royalty every time they spoke, so she felt like they weren't truly her friends.

Melina wasn't a fan of noble customs either, which was one of the reasons why she felt so connected to Ichiro at first since he would treat everyone equally.

The four girls kept sharing stories until late at night when they were interrupted after Melina saw her voice crystal glowing red and ran inside from the balcony to listen to the message.

Keiko was startled at first but was promptly reassured by Melina's roommates about how normal it was for her to act like that whenever the crystal glowed, explaining to the girl how the magical artifact worked.
