Yeah, Finia is a sweet girl.

　Suddenly, I was thrown out of the village and...
　I'm supposed to be working with someone who is supposed to be a terror...

　Normally, I think you can only think about yourself.
　What's going to happen to me now... or if I'm going to get home safely.

　But that's not the case with Finia.
　She puts herself on the back burner and thinks about her parents and her friends.
　It's a sign that this child has a very kind heart.

''I'm........kind........''

　Finia looks up...
　Next, he waved his hands in a rush.

It's not true, that's not true. I'm not going to be nice to you just because I'm a bad boy...
I don't think so. Finia would be nice to you.

　I said what I was just thinking about.

'It's... but it's normal to think about your mother and your friends... hmmm...?
'The fact that you can do that normal is very important. The fact that it's so normal makes it quite difficult to do... and I think Finia is admirable.
Oh, no...

　Finia looks puzzled.
　Then she puts her hand on her own chest and says as if to confirm the thoughts lurking behind it.

I've never heard anyone say that to me before.
Is that so?
''Well, you know... more confidence and being a great next generation... well, it's all about that...''
'Finia is Miss Elfin's daughter, you know. I suppose I can't blame you for that but I'm sure you've had your share of compliments.
'Yes, yes but it was also about power. I've heard that I have a great deal of power and people have praised me for it. My mother, too, praised me, but I didn't have complete control over my power, so I had to wear a collar.
A collar?　You mean that collar?
Yes, yes.........this is a power control device.........what. Without it, you won't be able to use your power normally, and you may even go out of control........

　It seems that she has remembered a lot of unpleasant things, and Finia's eyes are spinning around.
　I gently hold her hand to calm her down.

''Don't be in a hurry,''
'Oh....'
We can talk slowly, at Finia's pace. And then you can tell me what you want to say?
Mr. Lane...

　Finia crackled and blinked repeatedly.
　Then she took a light, deep breath.......and opened her mouth again.

''And anyway, well........watashi, I was only ever praised for my strength. Rather, I've always been a bit of a spoiler when it comes to my personality.......so, well.......this is the first time I've ever had someone say that I'm kind........

　He smiles softly and softly.

'I'm glad........'

　That smile is so beautiful you can't help but admire it.

It's cute.

　I can't help but spill those words out.

'Huh!'

　With a blur, Finia turned bright red.
　Aww, she panicked and went into a panic all at once.

''Wah, wah, it's so presumptuous to think that I'm so cute...!　You will be punished!　I'm sure God will tell you not to get carried away or something!
Well just relax for now.

　Now that was a bit disingenuous to say.
　This girl doesn't seem to have much confidence in herself so...
　And yet, if I said it was cute, it would confuse you.

　But I'm pretty sure I meant what I just said...
　I hope that one day they will understand.
　I wish they would have more confidence in themselves that they are pretty.

To get back to the point...
Yes, sir.
I think I'm going to adopt Finia's plan.
'What?　I don't know. Are you sure?　
Hey, you okay?
I'm fine, sir I was just too nervous.

　I'm beginning to wonder if I'm okay with it, even though I'm in favor of it.

　However, I don't have any other effective method right now.
　I couldn't think of a better plan than what Finia suggested...
　You'll just have to bet on her.

'Wow, wow I'll definitely convince my mom!　Mr. Lane is, well, for a human being he's better than I thought he would be.
Thank you.
Oh, but...

　Suddenly, Finia looks worried.

Aside from your mother, you know, it might be hard to convince the others...
'Really?　I have a feeling that if it's the chief's daughter, it's the others who are easier to convince.
Well, you see, it's not that I haven't been properly recognized... oh, no, I'm not being bullied or anything. I wonder if she'll listen to me properly or not.......well, she won't, will she? They don't listen to what I have to say....

　We were talking about showing what we can do in the race, and...
　The phoenix tribe, just like the gangster tribe, also value power?
　And Finia is not that powerful enough.

　I remember the first time I met her, she attacked me with tremendous force.
　Was that not enough power?
　Out of control?
　If that's the case, it seems like Finia's potential is a hell of a lot of potential.
　As expected of a chief's daughter, I guess.

　However, she seems to believe that she has no talent.
　That belief is also evident in her somewhat jittery personality.
　If you have more confidence in yourself, you'll be able to change.

I'll be fine.
What?
You'll do fine, Finia. You should have more confidence.
But I'm no good, and I can't control my powers and no one will believe me.
I'm a believer.

　Finia pouts.

'I know we just met, and I'm human and I may not be trustworthy, but I'm serious. But I'm serious. I'm sure Finia would.
Why is that...?
'An instinct I've lived with all my life as a beast tamer...?　Calling it a hunch might sound appropriate, but it's not a fool's errand. Even with this, I think I have a good eye for people so I'll trust Finia.
That's the first time anyone has ever said that to me.

　Finia rolled her eyes, seemingly surprised.
　Why?　There are also a lot of questions that abound.

　It's just not a bad face.
　I think this kid needs to look forward to more than being freaked out.
　I think a lot of things would change if he did.
　He's probably got the specs to do that, and more importantly, he's got a very serious personality.
　It's just a little backwards, and it's hard to tell.

''Ah, um........!
Yes.
I... but I'll do my best!　I'll definitely convince your mother of that!
I'm counting on it.
Okay.

　Finia nodded firmly while hanging on to her words.
　Her appearance is one of a kind.
　She was shown to be dependable, and even though it was small, it gave her hope.
