Lelia strode up to her uncle. It was time to introduce her friends so that her uncle wouldn't feel strange.

Her uncle's eyes as he found them grew big.

The friends all stood up and looked at her uncle.

Come to think of it, her uncle and her friends may know each other.

But, knowing better than her, her uncle approached them with a big smile.

"You, it's you!"

It was Kalix who he happily approached and hugged. Her uncle was fond of him like a child, but he crumpled his forehead when he saw the rest of them.

"Come to think of it, all of you were friends, right? You used to stick together every day..."

Her uncle squinted at Oscar in particular. Then he reached out to Lelia.

"Lelia! Come here. This is the one I told you about!"

Uncle tapped Kalix on the shoulder and laughed proudly.

"......!"

Lelia blinked at Kalix with a surprised face.

[Was it you...?]

Kalix greeted her uncle, but looked at Lelia as if he didn't know what to say.

"You're Carius' niece?" he said as he looked at her.

What's going on here?

"Come here, Lelia!"

"......"

Lelia approached her uncle with a confused, yet awkward smile.

Uncle stood Lelia next to Kalix, then stepped back and clapped at them.

"Yay! I knew it! I saw the picture, the picture!"

"......"

In the chilly atmosphere, her uncle was the only one who laughed brightly.

"It's a perfect match. I knew this would happen. I thought you two would get along so well!"

"They don't look good at all."

Romeo muttered in an audible voice, but her uncle lightly pretended not to hear.

"By the way, are you Lelia's guests? What's going on here?"

"It's... They have been helping me in the capital. That's when we became friends."

"Really? Oh my God. It's fate!

Her uncle looked at Kalix and admired him.

"You saved my niece from danger? You're such a commendable fellow!"

Does that mean she was out of danger? It wasn't wrong, but somehow there was an exaggeration.

Her other friends seemed completely invisible to Carius.

"Wait! We've got such a precious guest. We need to treat them! Butler, butler!"

Carius rushed out of the drawing room, apparently in a hurry.

Lelia looked at her friends with a tired look.

Everyone looked confused, but it was clear they were all staring at Kalix.

[... Everyone seems to be upset that Kalix didn't talk about the condition of his eyes.]

Lelia sighed in sorrow.

But Lelia couldn't blame Kalix for this problem.

It's not a golden spell, but it's clear that Kalix didn't speak to his friends about his condition.
