"Crieek~!!"
As soon as I entered my pavilion room, a lithe black-haired girl was waiting for me. A black bird perched atop her shoulder, chirping merrily upon noticing me.
In the next moment, Sera jumped from Amelia's shoulder to mine, softly grabbing it with her talons.
Since Amelia already knew Sera's true identity, I entrusted her to Amelia.
Even though I'd been cautious and changed Sera's appearance, one can never be too careful.
"Yeah, yeah," I smiled, gently caressing the beautiful bird on my shoulder.
Sera replied by rubbing her head back against my hand.
"Thank you for taking care of her," I turned to Amelia and expressed my gratitude.
Amelia simply waved her hand before asking, "What was that, though?"
Even without asking, I knew what she was talking about. Everyone was thinking the same thing after witnessing my match, more or less.
Why did Quinn let me defeat him so easily?
