Farah's POV.

After I return the kids to the first shelter, I go back to the third shelter to pick up the girl and Beleth. When I open the door of the third shelter, I can see Beleth is talking happily with the tree girl.

-I use that to deal with them, Non. (Beleth)

-... (Tree girl)

The tree girl looks like she doesn't care about what Beleth is talking about. Beleth directs attention to me when she perceives me come inside the shelter.

-Oh, Master! You are back! (Beleth)

She runs to my side and hugs me.

-Eheheh, Master smell so good. And she is incredibly soft to hug. (Beleth)

-Pervert. (Tree girl)

-Hey, Non. I tell you to stop calling me that! (Beleth)

-Non? (Farah)

-I named her that, master. Is this name sound good? (Beleth)

-Eh? (Farah)

-Unacceptable! (Tree girl)

The tree girl glares at Beleth intensely.

-I don't think she likes that name, Beleth. (Farah)

-Eh? (Beleth)

I cancel the spell that is restricting the movement of the tree girl.

-Not...Afraid...Escape? (Tree girl)

-I have no reason to bind you for now. (Farah)

-Fine. (Tree girl)

I walk to the girl's side and try to reach out for her.

-... (tree girl)

The girl seems a little afraid and retreats away from me.

-Don't worry. I will not hurt you. (Farah)

The girl gradually let down her guard and let me come near her side. I seize this chance to pat her head.

-Uh? (Tree girl)

-Beleth has a little "unique" taste in naming. Do you want me to give you another name? (Farah)

The girl nods rapidly. It seems she doesn't want to be called "Non."

Beleth stands beside me and pulls my shirt's helm.

-Master, are my naming sense that bad? (Beleth)

-Well, It's not that bad. But your naming sense is a little "special" compare with other people. (Farah)

-... My naming sense is terrible, isn't it? (Beleth)

I scratch my head and turn away from Beleth.

-Well... (Farah)

Beleth goes to the corner of the room and starts sulking. I inform the tree girl to ignore Beleth for now.

-... (Tree girl)

-Do you have any names in your mind? (Farah)

She shakes her head. It seems she can't think of any name.

-How's about Mashiro? (Farah)

-Meaning? (Tree girl)

-It means pure white, which is the same as the colour of your original body. (Farah)

-Humm! (Tree girl)

-Do you think it will make a great name? (Farah)

-Barely... acceptable. (Mashiro) 

Mashiro calls her new name for the first time.

-Mashiro...Mashiro. (Mashiro)

-Master is a genius in naming. Can you give me a name too, master? (Beleth)

-Beleth, you already have your own name. (Farah)

Beleth holds her head and replies.

-I forgot about it. (Beleth)

Beleth differs from the first time I summon her. I thought she would be an elegant demoness like Stolas, the current her only gives off a friendly sister aura.

-Master, what should we do now? (Beleth)

-I think we should meet up with my friend. She may find another survivor too. (Farah)

-Alright, I will follow you. (Beleth)

I turn to Mashiro and ask her.

-How about you then, Mashiro? (Farah)

-Follow...For Now. You...Take...Me...Anyway. (Mashiro)

-Oki, Let's go then! (Farah)

I need to return to the place where we separate first. Lecia may wait for me in that place.

-Master, Is the one over there is your friend? (Beleth)

Beleth points at Lecia, who is leaning against the massive rock.

-Yes, it's my friend Lecia. (Farah)

Beleth scratches her chin and thinks about something serious.

-I think we need to act a little careful. (Beleth)

Lecia seems to notice me.

-Oh, Farah! Finally, you are back. (Lecia?)

-Lecia! Did you find any survivors, Lecia? (Farah)

-Sadly, I didn't find any Farah. (Lecia?)

Lecia asks me back.

-Did you find any on your side? (Lecia?)

"Master!" (Beleth)

"Eh, Beleth?" (Farah)

"I'm talking directly to your mind, master. You need to answer her normally not to raise any doubt about that girl." (Beleth)

-What's wrong, Farah? (Lecia?)

-No-nothing. (Farah)

-Humm! (Lecia?)

Lecia changes the subject and points at Mashiro and Beleth.

-Who are these girls? (Lecia?)

-Ah, these two are only the two survivors that I found. (Farah)

-Hoh. (Lecia?)

"Master, that girl gives off the feeling like the black tree that we have encountered so far" (Beleth)

Is this the "fake" they mention in the mission? Let do one more test to confirm it.

-Lecia? (Farah)

-Yes? (Lecia?)

-What is my colour again? (Farah)

-What are you talking about, Farah? You are wearing a black dress. (Lecia?)

-I mean my colour, not my dress. (Farah)

-I don't understand what you are talking about, Farah. (Lecia?)

"She doesn't seem to be my friend, Beleth." (Farah)

"Let me reveal her real identity." (Beleth)

-Mirror Of Truth. (Beleth)

A mirror appears right in front of the Lecia. I can see a black tree monster instead of Lecia's figure reflected in the mirror. I instantly chant a fire arrow and attack the fake Lecia.

-Grrr! (Lecia?)

The fake Lecia jumps back and stares.

-How do you know I am the fake? (Fake Lecia)

-Where is Lecia? (Farah)

-Hoh? (Fake Lecia)

The fake Lecia laughs at me.

-I have brought her as a sacrifice to my dad. You will never see her again. (Fake Lecia)

-You! (Farah)

-And you guys will die here, anyway! (Fake Lecia)

-Reflection. (Beleth)

I can merely see Beleth draws her sword and cut down the head of fake Lecia in front of me.

-You dare to scratch my body. You guys must pay a price for this. (Fake Lecia)

The head of fake Lecia continues talking.

Beleth steps on the Fake head and crushes it.

-Heh, if you dare, then you should confront us with the actual body of yours. (Beleth)

-Grrr! (Fake Lecia)

The body of the fake Lecia turns around and runs away.

-Heh, it seems to notice it can't defeat us. (Beleth)

-Eh? We should follow it to get information about Lecia. (Farah)

Beleth smiles and answers me.

-Mashiro, You know where that black tree run to, right? It's probably the place it takes your friend, master. (Beleth)

Mashiro merely nods at Beleth's question.

-Eh, How can Mashiro know that? (Farah)

-Oh, the master doesn't know about it? (Beleth)

-What do you mean? (Farah)

-Mashiro and those black trees are nemesis. (Beleth)
