Talented Snake (2)

After promising to do this occasionally in the future, I asked something I was curious about.

'By the way, how did you become friends with that ill-mannered prince?'

"Oh, you mean Phili?"

Amain told me the story of how he became friends with Prince Phili.

Hearing it, fate truly was mysterious.

'Hooh, I see...'

So that's how it is.

It seems I can handle the prince through Amain.

Rania had her ear pressed against the professor's office door.

Prince Phili was carefully watching her from behind.

"I can't hear any-"

"Shh!"

The prince quickly shut his mouth.

Rania frowned in concentration, but soon sighed and pulled her ear away.

"Can't hear anything. Seems they used magic to block sound."

"It's been an hour already!"

Quite some time had passed since Amain went in for the one-on-one meeting.

Yet there was still no sign of him coming out.
