Is It Really Surprising?

Nolan entered the cottage and saw Anette concocting a potion for Kyran. On the other hand, Silas excused himself and told them he would have to go outside the cottage's array to summon Lumi and ask for her help with the rare stone.

When Nolan asked him why he had to leave, Silas awkwardly admitted that he did not give Lumi permission to enter the cottage because the cottage was his haven. He did not want Lumi's verbal abuse to tarnish its memory.

Anette, on the other hand, could only smile at his misfortune. She knew how frolicsome Spirits could become to the point where they love to see human suffering. It did not matter if that human was their master because sometimes, that was how a Spirit showed their 'love.' The more they loved to play tricks on them openly, the more they adored them. The only human Anette knew who could get along and play along with their tricks was Rin.

Rin's playfulness and innocence resonated well with the Spirits when she was younger.
