Bidding farewell to Queen Arwen, the members of the Loki Familia enter the Twilight Manor along with Bell, where they will each go about their business.

Bell prepares to leave the mansion because, having explored the dungeon once, he must be prepared for what is to come.

That is why he carries with him a bag full of valis to be invested in materials for his weapons, especially for his ranged weapons. In addition, he carries his musket with bayonet attached. When he was ready to leave, he runs into none other than his new captain, Finn.

- I never thought I would see you here, Bell -

- How are you, Captain? Everything all right? -

- Yeah, not to worry - the hobbit replies - Looks like that you are going somewhere -

- Exactly. I will go to buy arrows, materials for my ammunition and what I need most of all, gunpowder.

- Gunpowder? -

- Yes, it is required for my musket. And while I am at it, I will look for a blacksmith to make copies of the bayonet -

- That will require a lot of valis. Do you have enough? -

- The queen asked me about 100 000, will it do? -

- It will do. You will go alone, will you not? -

- I doubt anyone will accompany me.

- I know who will - Finn observes a blonde elf who passes by the two of them - Alicia, do you have something to do today? -

- No, Captain -

- I am glad, because you are going to be Bell's escort -

- Huh? Is he going to the dungeon? -

- You are wrong. He is going to buy materials for some of his weapons, but he is not familiar with the places to buy them. That is why I am asking you to accompany him and know how to get there -

- I understand... - Alicia looks at the Siberian - May I accompany you? -

- Of course. Thank you for your help -

The two leave the mansion, Alicia being the guide to buy the materials she needs. Meanwhile, Riveria approaches Finn because she saw the other two leaving.

- Hey, Finn, where are you two going? -

- Well. Bell is planning to buy materials and I assigned Alicia to guide him since she was the first one who showed up when I was talking to him.

- I see -

Finn notices in Riveria's right hand the sword <Enigma>.

- Riveria, what are you doing with Bell's sword? -

- He agreed that he studied the sword and looked for it to return it -

- Well, they are fiancés after all - Finn opines with a smile, but in reality, he is annoying her.

- I have not fully accepted yet, Finn. Stop teasing -

Riveria leaves a bit annoyed to go to her room while Finn holds in his laughter.

Riveria arrives in her room with the sword and sits down on her bed to sigh,

- [Why will you not accept my mate at all, princess] - Eira asks the elf.

- Suddenly meet him and immediately engage with him. My mother always does that sort of thing to me -

- [That is a good point, but I assure you that he will do everything he can to satisfy you] -
