That sounds like a lie.

When that guy showed up on a giant dragon, Efa thought.

Will there be a time like this?

But at the same time - I was sure you'd come and help me.

"Uh, to put it briefly... we're friends with the dragon"

When I heard that, Efa almost laughed unexpectedly.

It's impotent.

But to my mind, that guy was always unscrupulous.

Do what you don't think you can do at all.

It breaks down what I assumed was a wall.

That's how it gives me a new view.

"Efa."

Voices calling their own names.

Efa turned to her reached out hand and stepped out.

I was glad you asked for it. It's not enough to take, I was just a slave to you.

Even then when I decided to go to school.

And still is.

"Don't go!!

That's when Lise's voice sounded on her back.

Efa stops her leg.

The voice sounded like a guide to me.

He's the one who told me he was a compatriot. I'm sure you're really worried.

But...

"Sorry...... I knew I couldn't stay here"

Efa answers with her back turned.

Now I finally know what to answer to Lise and the Prince.

The trigger, what was it?

Have you decided to go with the school (f) and been made fun of by the samurai (maids) and fellow slavers?

Did you always help me when I was scolded in the mansion?

Or - no matter what they say, flat out, everything can be done by itself... but from time to time there was nothing I could do about it, would I have looked lonely?

I'm sure... all of that, yes.

"I'm going with Seika."

Efa looks back and tells Lise.

"Because I like that guy"

Efa turned her back on Lise and ran out.

Go under Seika.
