"Eh? Whoa!?" Erina was surprised when she saw the shadow of a bird. She looked up and found a relatively large bird suddenly lunging at them from the sky.
"!!!" Mio immediately stood in front of Erina.
"!?" Several experts were ready to move to intercept that large bird, but the situation suddenly became a bit unexpected.
"Fret not. She's friendly." Elysia raised her palm and offered her arm for the bird to perch.
"O-oh~ Is she your pet bird, Ellie? A golden eagle?" Erina breathed a sigh of relief.
"I'm a divine owl, little girl." Fortuna turned her head back and corrected the error.
"The speaking golden owl? Oh, she's just like Victoria, the royal raven from England." Erina was a bit surprised, but she remembered this was not her first experience encountering a talking bird.
"Erina, we're going to go shopping for daily necessities before heading back to the hotel. Would you like to come with us?" Elysia rubbed the golden owl's head.
