Is Elle going after Master Linoa, who ran off somewhere? I drink tea without moving when I think about it.

"E, El? Don't you have to go after him?

"Hmm? Good. I was with Rose.

'I don't know what it means to chase' and there's no sign of it ever moving.

(Ma, well, maybe it is... but if I were you, I'd want whoever I want to chase after me... But Elle herself doesn't know that Master Linoa likes Elle, does she?... but I'm... relieved Elle didn't have to go after him...)

I was surprised at myself for thinking that.

(... relieved, are you?... Elle didn't go after Master Linoa... well, well... here we go...)

"Elle, I'm worried about you, Master Linoa, so I'll find you."

"Huh? I don't think you should mind. I'll just forget about what happened earlier and come back.

(No, no, no! You don't have that! Elle, what do you think of Master Linoa!?)

Is this what childhood is like when you're surprised by the relaxed El? As I thought, I apologized to everyone for taking my seat and turned my foot toward the one where Master Linoa jumped out.

"Oh, hiccup... hiccup..."

After a short walk, I heard a crying noise from somewhere.

(... Ah, you were here.)

As soon as I found out that Linoa was hiding in the shadows but her tail was a little out of the shadows, I cried.

("Hide your head" is the guy. It's actually a tail, but...)

My cheeks loosened only slightly to the sight.

"... Master Linoa?

"Huh!?!?

I'm sure you never thought I'd come.

"Lo, Lo, Lo, Lo, Zelia..."

I move my mouth flaky and call my name but I am surprised with my bright red eyes wide open.

"Yeah, I'm sorry I surprised you. But I can't put my cheers down.

Bright red eyes are painful. I handed my handkerchief to Master Linoa.

'Thank you' and I received that handkerchief as a small thank you.

"Duh, duh, duh, you?... I thought no one would come..."

"I wonder why. But I, Master Linoa, was declared a rival? It's only natural that I care about you.

"Ugh... wow, you're here to laugh!... miserable, I don't even feel like I'm here to laugh.

"Yeah, that's never gonna happen. Hey, Master Linoa, it's me..."

In the middle of the conversation, it was going to be a long time, so we may have to take out Master Linoa, who was hiding in the shadows, as a lady, but we sat each other down to the nearby lawn.
