Chapter 219: Arsonist (End)

"Layland, what have you been doing?"

I stop musing about the recently resurrected feeling in my heart when I hear a familiar voice scold me. I turn to the east, which is the direction where the voice comes from, and find Millonia with the rest of the girls looking at me with a light frown.

Rather than asking why they are here, I make quick mental math to count how much time has passed since I came here. I am not very sure how much time dilated when I was being tested by Ignio but, in my rough estimation, it should have been an hour and a half.

The girls coming here means that the situation in the town is no longer out of hand, which is a commendable achievement.

"Good work, everyone. You finished your task splendidly."

Therefore, I praise them for their work to take their attention away from the question: "What have you been doing here?" For some reason, I don't want them to know what happened here.
