“Just that?” Shelly looked eventhe truth “You stayed in a roo? Isn’t that hard on you?”

The knight choked for a lared down at the siren as he said, “Why should spending the night together is like that, huh!? Who do you take ht you liked Ellen,” the siren spoke sadly “Was I wrong?”

Cain sighed “Of course I like Ellen It’s just … not the kind of like you’re thinking of I don’t want to do that kind of thing with hi with Raphael, either,” the siren seemed close to tears “Does that mean I didn’t really like him?”

“Hey, hold on,” the knight ruffled his hair “Don’t try and compare how you felt about Raphael to how I feel about Ellen You should know your own feelings best”

“Oh!” Shelly looked relieved, then looked up and laughed “Got it!”

“Alright?” Cain held his hand “Then let’s go back; the others will be getting worried”

“So does this in?” Shelly asked seriously

!? You’re still curious about that!?

“Ah, poor Cain Just ill you lose your virginity, anyway?” Shelly teased confidently Cain let go of his hand and knocked him on the head “Ow! Cain, don’t bully me … I’m obviously just worried about you”

“Gee, thanks When I do lose inity, you’ll be the first to know!”

“Well, of course”

“… It’s called sarcase is terrible!” The knight growled

When they got back to the others, the breakfast table had been set Sitting next to Mr Cavendish was a woman who looked to be about twenty years old Her brown hair curled up at her shoulders, and her eyes her brown as well When the elf and his entourage entered, she stood up and gracefully saluted There was no doubt that she was a beauty; her sie’s robes only added to her charm

The one as meant to receive the Queen’s second letter

They all exchanged greetings; as Ellen spoke, her gaze swept over his ears and a look of surprise flashed across her face But she didn’t say anything, only nodding and accepting the letter

Unlike last night’s dinner, the breakfast table thiswas very quiet Julian did not see silent in the corner Only after the dishes were cleared away did the Grand Mage broke the silence

“Now, if everyone is full, I will speak First, Rowenna, you are already aware of Shelly’s situation I would like you to teach him mental defense methods, so that he ht” Rowenna looked over at the siren and nodded

“Also, there is soion”

“Could you explain what you mean?” Ellen asked

“There was a forest in the Sunset Highlands,” the Grand Mage began to narrate “In the past, this forest was the birthplace of many monsters”

“The e trials”(4)

“Yes,” the Grand Mage replied “No e, or a high-level er any e trials reical constructs instead The system has been in place for nearly a hundred years, and was still in good condition, but since last week there have been a few probleo the trials and discovered that the constructs were coes we sent to repair theh they’ve returned intact, they’ve lost theirwhat happened In the surrounding forest, there was soical creatures had been active in the area We suspect that, deep in the forest, a powerful new species has appeared It ic”

Cain is referencing a conversation from chapter 24 of the first volume!I loved this line… Shelly, you’re unexpectedly quite the romantic, huh?I was sure she was mentioned in one of the chapters translated by , but I couldn’t for the life of me find said mention, so this is my tentative interpretation of her naue, so I may edit it later if we learn ot to see Shelly being protective of Ellen, how cute!
