"E-eh…?"
Lucielle appeared dumbfounded by Rey's question.
"The truth is… I also wanted to see you. Your knowledge and versatility in Magic is necessary for the mission I want to accomplish in the Dragon Empire. It would really be helpful if you came with me."
"F-for real…?"
Most people would shake in fear once they heard that they were being nominated to infiltrate the territory of the enemy, but not Lucielle.
Yes, she was trembling, but it wasn't out of fear at all.
The pink hues on her cheek, her wide eyes filled with both excitement and shock, and the loud squeals that burst from her mouth were enough to let anyone know that she felt the furthest thing from fear.
Instead, she was overjoyed.
"For real." Rey said to her. "I take it that you're interested."
"Yes! Oh, yes! Yes! Yes! Yes!"
