My stomach churned.
Why do I have to feel bad about this? He was the one who attacked me! My body couldn’t stop shivering. I looked down to see myself. No blood spilt on my outfit and one of my hands were still in fierce flames.
I closed my eyes and tried to relax my breathing before freeing my hand. Wait, how long did I leave Emil and Marie together for?
Urgh!
I sprint out of the alleyway slums as fast as possible. Wait what about the body? I’ll just leave it to someone else! No way a fragile “mana-less” lady like me can cause such gore!
Haha… I'll just pretend today never happened! Until I do it again!
“Wah, uh”
I pant a bit from the brief exercise. Ah, really needed to get the physical reinforcement magic to cut my pain in half. As I wept inside my head, I tried to scout out where Marie and Emil could have possibly gone. How long was I out for? I can only pray that Marie doesn’t make me regret leaving.
Before too long, I found them sitting together, nibbling on a skewer. Could they develop a friendship? Maybe she became a more agreeable person? I approached them and gave a wave – if I used this opportunity to run away, I wouldn’t be able to get the body reinforcement magic gem at home. Well, temporary home to be more accurate. But that’s beside the point!
“Alice! Where were you?”
Oh yeah, what should I say in this situation. While Marie won’t buy anything I say, other than the truth, I can protect Emil’s innocence.
“I just went to get a snack myself,”
It was honestly difficult to force myself to smile like this, but I think it worked.
“Unfair! Take me next time!”
“Haha, sure”
I faced Marie after to see her reaction but all she showed was pent-up contempt that I’d have to face later. Can’t wait to go back…

So...is Alice going to skip town once she gets the gem to use for body reinforcement and another chance comes up? Or will she keep delaying until something makes her explode and burn the place down in anger? Like...Marie molesting her again. Or Viclam getting in on it.
