　It was late afternoon, a few days after Taura had returned. The evening party was almost over, and most of the meetings that had to be attended had been completed. So I spent the last few days relaxing for the first time in a long time.

　I would have returned to Harbor Fulton, if I had not had to go to talk to Her Highness Princess Lily to look for the black cube. It is a very complicated feeling.

　Well, His Highness Lily's reply. I don't think it will be taken lightly, but in case I am wrong, we will have to find another way.

　I receive the letter and read through it, thinking that it might be easier that way.

"Well, well, well. That's a lot of passion! I'm surprised he asked you to marry him."

"I don't see ......."

　I read the letter again and find no such statement.

"Then it is customary for two people to accompany you. So, who will you choose?"

　Again the grinning Karine. For some reason she seems amused by who I choose.

　I tell her their names, with the intention of increasing the success rate of the search for the black cube.

　I told them the names of the two people I was going to choose.

　The three of us and Sailuke were in the waiting room of the castle. We were told to stay here and wait for a call from His Highness Lily.

"No, it is my revenge against the sorcerer that is at the root of all this. I am sure I have put Rust through a lot of work, including this time. I really appreciate it."

　Taura thanks me with a serious face.

"Um, are you sure you want me to follow you ......?"

"Yeah, I've been watching Sherlur's work as an alchemist and he seems to be quite flexible in his thinking and has a sharp point of view. So, please keep on as usual, Sherlur. Don't be too uptight and let me know if you notice anything."

"Master Rust...! Yes, sir! I will do my best to meet your expectations!"

　For some reason, Scherlur looks very moved.

　For some reason, Taura is looking at the exchange between Sherloul and me as if she were dumbfounded.

"Rust, you'd better moderate that..."

"No, it's nothing."

　He seems to be acting as a scribe for us.

　Seyrouk seems to be oblivious to our conversation, and is lying on my shoulder.

　Since he has grown up, he seems to be sleeping more often than before.

　Then, His Highness Lily finally called me.
