Even when they were separated, they communicated through Stitch.
Cecils other companions came out to watch the Guardians.
The sun was setting, so he preferred to stay at the base with Cecil.
When night fell completely, her companions returned.
The group consisted of Cecils cousin and four women.
They met with Cecil to talk.
He asked her how she managed to endure the silence when she was with him.
From the moment Cecil met her companions, he kept his distance from them.
He felt he didnt fit in there, he better start working in earnest.
***
The stamina potion allowed Lilith to get halfway to the base.
After that everything was very easy, she didnt have to do anything else.
This was because she did not meet Planteras on the main road.
However, she took another additional stamina potion so she did not rest. She only had one potion left after arriving at the base.
She was not used to walking in steep areas alone, and all her life she was accompanied by knights when she went out.
Lilith experienced intense fear.
So when she arrived at the base she felt more sadness than relief.
Her desperation for a partner had become intense. She didnt care if he was competent, she at least wanted someone to talk to.
When the moon was in the sky, crystal balls were placed around the chapel to illuminate it. The place looked gloomy.
She wandered around to look for someone. Lilith was also among the first to arrive at this place. Thats why there werent so many people to choose a companion.
Is there no one here?
Her connections seemed useless here.
Then she could find a masked man in an open space beyond the garden. He was sitting with his back against a rock wall.
He hugged his wooden sword.
It looked like the man was in the same situation as Lilith.
Great.
Then Ill be going, see you later!
Cecil walked away.
They seemed to have accompanied each other this far.
Lilith did not feel in a good mood.
He had treated her coldly, but he had taken care of Cecil.
It didnt even seem like they had known each other long.
She felt he had discriminated against her.
Her discontent gradually increased. Finally, she approached him.
Hello.
Youve seen me before, right?
***
She expected him to reject her, but she couldnt help but feel annoyed.
He didnt even think about it.
Cecil looked back as she returned to her companions.
Her gaze was fixed on the beautiful aristocrat.
The woman spoke as a monologue.
It seemed as if she had a friendship with him.
Cecils invitation to partner up and earn extra points together was attractive. As competent as he was, alone he could not make his way through the Guardians along the a-b routes. He had to have a team, too.
Now she understood why he had turned down her proposal.
The culprit is that woman.
She felt a sense of indescribable resentment.
She really had no personal feelings for him. Cecils proposal was due to the real need his group had, not personal interest.
But it had become an emotional issue before she realized it.
The man was with a rather beautiful woman.
She felt rejected by this girl.
