(Third Person POV)
The year 2032, September 13, according to the global calendar.
In the capital of the Tirshtain Empire, inside the Imperial Palace.
Inside the emperor's office, two people sat across from each other as they spoke.
"Riana, a few days ago when we were talking, you seemed tense. I want to know if you're hiding something from me."
Orlax placed his hand on the desk, tapping it slowly as he looked at Riana, who sat in front of him.
"This…"
She opened her mouth as if to say something but quickly turned her gaze away and remained silent.
The Sword Spirit floated in the air, placing her hand on her forehead when she saw Riana's behavior, which clearly showed she was hiding something.
[The Sword Spirit says you should give her some time to tell you herself what she's hiding.]
The little red-haired girl landed on his shoulder with a wide smile on her face.
'How annoying. Even Alice couldn't figure out what Riana is hiding.'
