The place Lasilia headed to was the North Tower.


"Shryden Hapha! Are you inside? I'm going in!"


Yvette, who was out of breath trying to keep up with Lasilia's fast pace, finally announced her visit and opened the door.


"Oh, this can't be right. I guess neither of you are here."


But the room was empty. Yvette stamped her foot.


"At a time like this, when Her Majesty the Empress is urgently looking for her..."


She felt dizzy for a moment when she saw the empty room. Lasilia went to the window and opened it.


'They said they would come when called.'


Before Pipi was born, the birds that were there said that. Miraculously, the birds appeared whenever Lasilia needed something from her. The reason the birds help him is probably because, like Pipi, they consider themselves the demon's companion. But there was no time to discuss such things now.


"Anyone, please come. It's urgent."


Lasilia held her hands together and whispered in an earnest voice.


"Please."


Yvette came to her side and opened her mouth anxiously.


"Your Majesty the Empress. Could you please tell me what's going on? You might wonder if something like me can be of much help, but there might be something I can do."


Lasilia shook her head.


"Your heart is grateful. But you're better off not knowing."


"Why... Why is that so? I want to do something..."


Yvette was crying. Just her facial expression conveyed her kind heart. She didn't know who her real companion was, but she would get a lot of comfort here just by having someone like Yvette.


"There are many things a princess can do. So she doesn't have to feel sad about this moment."


"But... There's something troubling you right now. Isn't that right?"


"Okay. But I think that's something that can't be solved by human power."


"Yes? Then..."

It was a moment when Yvette lost her words out of worry and embarrassment.

Caw! Caw!

Coo coo coo coo!

Peep! Beep, beep!

Birds began to fly in from somewhere and sit on the window sill one by one.

"Oh! Look, Her Majesty! Suddenly the birds are coming! What the hell is this?"


Yvette was startled and hurriedly pointed out the window. At first there were just one or two birds, but before we knew it, so many birds flew in that the entire window was covered.
