Inside of his office, Osmond listened to the group's report of what had happened with Fouquet.

"Hm... So Miss Longueville was Fouquet... Because she's such a beauty, I didn't think twice about hiring her as my secretary..." Realizing he was being glared at by those in front of him, Osmond let out a cough. "A-And she could use magic too."

"Yes, magic that could kill..." Another person in the room with them was Mr. Colbert.

"Well then... To let you all know, Fouquet has been handed over to the soldiers at the capital, and the Staff of Destruction has been put back into the treasure vault. Finally, the case is closed."

Osmond got up and patted the three girls on the head.

"I have requested the imperial court to give you three the title of Chevalier, we should have news of it soon. And since Tabitha here already has that title, I have requested that she be given the Elven Medallion."

The trio's faces lit up upon hearing the news.

"Really?"

"Yes. You have done more than enough to earn this title, haven't you?"

Louise looked at her two familiars behind her, who had been silent since they entered the office.

"Headmaster Osmond, Kai and Saito... won't get anything?"

Osmond looked down for a moment. "Unfortunately, since they aren't nobles..."

Kai waved his hand. "I don't need some title."

Saito nodded. "I don't need that either."

Osmond gently clapped his hands. "I almost forgot, tonight's Ball of Frigg will resume as planned since we have gotten the Staff of Destruction back."

Kirche's face brightened up. "That's right. Let's forget about this and dance all night long!"

The three girls bowed and started to leave. Louise stopped and looked at the two boys. She had no clue why they weren't coming with them.

"Will you get goin' already?" Kai had a fake annoyed look on his face.

As Louise was about to leave, she took one last look at them and noticed something. Kai was shaking ever so slightly.

When she left the room, Kai and Saito's faces were serious.

"I assume you have something to ask me?"

Saito nodded.

Osmond let out a small sigh. He expected something like this. "Please ask. I'll try to answer your question to the best of my abilities. Even though I couldn't give you two a title, this is the least I could do."

Osmond immediately ushered Mr. Colbert out of the room. Since Mr. Colbert was excited to hear the two Gandalfr speak, he was extremely disappointed.

When he left, Saito started speaking. "The Staff of Destruction is from my world."

Osmond's eyes had a spark of curiosity. "From your world?"

"We're not from this world."

"Is this true?"

Kai nodded. "Yeah. We were brought here from Louise's summoning."

Osmond squinted. "I see..."

Saito started once more. "Who was the person that brought it to this world?"

"The one who gave me the Staff of Destruction was my savior." Osmond's voice was heavy.

"Where are they now? They have to be from the same world as us."
